Week 7 - Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers

[ratedr]

Haha Ray just said he will always be a Raven. He and Boomer were the only ones who picked us.

Happy Sunday everyone, what records will be set against us this week?

[Aunka_Beatmon]

Harbaugh, give Raven nation a present today. Use the pass to set up productive runs. The run game is not working in the format you've been using. Six weeks and numerous "tweaks" have proven it. Nothing wrong with using your strengths - Flacco, Torrey, Jacoby, Marlon - to help your weaknesses - Ray, Bernard, OL. I am so anxious about the first play on offense. It will be the tone setter for the rest of the game. If it's a tackle eligible 2 wideout I formation, Rice up the middle for nothing, Raven nation will be in for a long day and bitter loss and further evidence Harbs is not up to the task this year with this team. A shame, this team has just as good personnel as any in the league and Harbs and company are letting them and us down.

This game may possibly set the tone for the rest of the season.  Harb's won't be under the microscope but players on the O-Line may find themselves scrutinized.

I hope the first offensive play is a nice long pass and not a no gain handoff to Rice.  Let's go Ravens!!

[Aunka_Beatmon]

Can't wait to watch Ben throw-up on himself today.   I respect Mike Tomlin but watching Todd haley grow frustrated with his team is sometimes a good show in it's self.  Raven's are gonna roll out with a win today.  Could be a tucker field goal...but I'll take it.  

 

The Steeler's season will be in critical condition after sustaining another loss this early in the season.  Best believe they will show up and play increasingly desperate.  We gotta keep our composure!!!(slams folding chair into lockers)

Nope,It's Joe's turn

Is that a troll in your avatar?

• In 2010, it was T.J. Houshmandzadeh who caught the game-winning for the Ravens in Pittsburgh.
• In 2011, Torrey Smith stepped-up by catching the game-winning touchdown during the final seconds in Pittsburgh.
• In 2012, Jacoby Jones was the difference-makier in Pittsburgh, as he scored the only touchdown for the Ravens on a punt return.

As you can see, the pattern has gone: Free agent, veteran WR acquisition to rookie WR, back to free agent, veteran WR acquisition. Also, there's another pattern with their jersey numbers: 84 to 82 to 12.

Basically, what I'm saying is that some rookie wide receiver, who wears #14, will be the hero for Baltimore, this afternoon. In fact, he'll catch 2 touchdowns to help the team.</p>

Haha nice

Well, I just broke out my T-Sizzle "Blank" You Pittsburg tee and I'm beginning to feel a little better. Go Ravens!

You just reminded me to break out my Suggs quote shirt lol

[T3hRaven]

I'm predicting an overall YPC of 2.4 today.

[Gordo52]

New prediction.

Offense plays lights out. 3 Flacco TD's to 3 different players. Rice rushes for 98 yards. D doesn't allow a TD. OL doesn't allow a sack.

So pumped

Way to turn my pessimism into optimism.

[Malkavian Raven]

The first of a very crucial three-game stretch that could ultimately decide whether we're playoff contenders or pretenders.  I'm hoping for a 3-0 run in the next four weeks.

Even worse that it works? Ha

[PuRock]

Dang, we have to listen to Dan Fouts spew his biased crap all game.

[rlh445]

Oh no, Fouts?!  Welp, guess it's 'Mute' button time.

[Guest Im An Ozzie Newsome Guy]

Dang, we have to listen to Dan Fouts spew his biased crap all game.

 

I still remember when Dan Fouts moaned over some Raven (I think it was either Pollard or Reed.) tackling a Charger "a good 10 feet out-of-bounds" when, in actuality, it was barely a foot off the playing field.

arthur brown better get the majority of snaps

[Zeus]

Why is Jah Reid on this team?

[rmw10]

Jarvis Jones is INACTIVE for the Steelers.

I suggest a few cold beers will help

[The Raven]

Why is Jah Reid on this team?

 

Mediocre depth at guard and tackle. He's the only real depth we have, unfortunately.

[rmw10]

I'm guessing insurance until Jensen is fully healthy.

[SecretAgentMan]

Jarvis Jones is INACTIVE for the Steelers.

That's big

[Gordo52]

Positive vibes people, we need positive vibes.

[T3hRaven]

I hate having the late game.  It's the worst start time of the week.  SNF is after dinner, the early games are after lunch.  The 4:25 start falls right in the middle of dinner time.

Order pizza and eat while watching the game.

[Hraventyr]

Lets go RAVENS. Rivalry Game

I hope the run game blocking goes back to man to man and we break out a 200 yards running game.

It's more likely that we see our passing game though. Marlon Brown is quickly becoming a fave player of mine so would be great to see him continue getting TDs
