Victory is colossally important to both, but Baltimore can afford to lose and Pittsburgh can't.

They know they have to win because if they dont "SWEEEEEEEEP"!

[Berkeley_Raven]

This is the site of the Baltimore Ravens, right?

But seriously, I see your point. Great article Mr. Eisenberg, as always.

[kevraves]

well...I'm not going to say we can afford to lose...pitt aside...look at the remaining schedule.

[ravenwildman]

Time to put our foot on their throat!

GO RAVENS!

[D3x3001]

They can be amped up all they want but Leftwich is not going to get the better of us. When was the last time he even played in a game before Monday night?

[horus13corvineus]

you can never afford to lose vs your most hatred opponent

[BmoreKing]

I disagree. I think games where there is "Crushing Pressure" are the games we perform best in. Week 1 last year, against the Pat playoffs. Games with no pressure like Jags last year, KC this year are games where we blow it. That would explain our great record after a lose.

your not gonna win much with Byron Leftwich god I'm glad he didn't get drafted by the Ravens

We have as many injuries and to even bigger names! I agree that have some injuries but no worse then our situation

I dont want to hear any crying that they lost due to injuries from the media!

[GyMan20]

Division losses are never something you can afford. Anytime we play the Brownies, Bungles, or Stealers it should be a "must win" game for this team.

Win big

[10000 Watts]

I just hope the refs got it all outta their systems last night and call a great game. Go Ravens!!! :)

[iluvpurple]

No, imho, Baltimore can NEVER afford to lose, especially to the Steelers!!

[roamingcharges]

Gosh! So I have to listen to Cris Colinsworth point out all the calls that should have gone against the Ravens... and how all the bad calls that favor the Steelers have some slight element of merit to them thus exonerating the officials of any wrongdoing. I just wish they would bring someone else in to comment on this Sunday Night Football game. The beef with the Ravens is incomprehensible... it's not like the Ravens were around when he was playing (or not playing come to think of it).

[CxM_27]

If Leftwich starts, he can still shred our defense if we dont get pressure.. And the way we play so soft on coverage. Our defense is still very bad.

[Valid1]

Colinsworth doesn't hate Baltimore, he's just a very bad commentator.

[dwhravens]

Ben in the MVP conversation? Well, I expect Joe Flacco to be in that conversation. The Steelers have literally 10 more passing yards than the Ravens. Joe is going to carry this team to the super bowl and win it!

[Dfence4champs2052]

Let's go. It doesn't matter who's behind center. They got 60 minutes of discomfort to look forward to. Let's go play hard, fast and most importantly smart and aggressive.
