Week 9 - Baltimore Ravens (5-3) at Pittsburgh Steelers (5-3)

[Nge2grads]

Let's go Ravens!  Please come out strong, stay strong, and get the W!  This season has been so up and down for the first 8 games.  Play like a Raven!

[Inqui]

Fun fact I came across: no divisional home underdog (Steelers in this case) has covered the spread since week 5 2012. Iirc that was before Ray Lewis got hurt.

Don't know if I'm "RELEASE THE KRAKEN" excited about this or worried he's not up to game speed. :/

[K-Dog]

Who do you all think is under more pressure tonight?

between the two teams I think it is about as equal as you can get.

Wait, we're favored?

How?

[BALTIMOREFLACCO]

Have a club football playoff game in the middle of the game, hopefully I catch the end....either way GO RAVENS!!!!

[K-Dog]

I am predicting +15 " I told you so " 's by the proud purple kool-aid drinkers.

 

Have faith !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not so sure, our team is facing having been swept by a division rival last week, being down our best corner in an already shakey secondary tonite, and with a loss going from 1st to last in two week's time in the division. Whereas Pitt is riding a 2 game win streak, having bested quite an Indy offense last week, and believe as though they are climbing their way up the division since being .500 from week 6.

Just seeing him on ST is enough for me right now

[The Mom Gene]

I think it's going to be a riot.

[Static]

No Brooks means more Elam 

[The Mom Gene]

No Brooks means more Elam 

Or Hill

[omar586]

brooks is inactive? is he injured or something?

[Zeus]

Elam is bad no horrible. How did he make it to the NFL if he can't tackle?

[GrimCoconut]

I don't quite understand making Brooks inactive, but what can you do. Granted, he's made his fair share of mistakes but think Elam has made far more. Guess we'll see what happens. I'm pulling for Matt.

[Zeus]

Here we go with Ward and Suggs interview

[Zeus]

Sizz is the man, haaaaa

Especially with how questionable our secondary is.  I'd find more value in Brooks than someone like Supernaw, but maybe that's just me.
