Get the broom. GO RAVENS!!

[JoeyFlex5]

please just let them go to the playoffs, get us a top 5 pick and let the AFCNorth continue to reign as one of the toughest 2 divisions in the league

This might get ugly

Had they lost to the Broncos, there might be some hope to be spoilers. Now, it is likely that, even if we pulled of the astronomically improbable upset, they'd still make it in.

Well, Timmy ... that's all well and good ..but can you do me a favor and not keep the team on the field after holding them short on a 3rd down by doing something silly like shoving Ben after he's already out of bounds or 5 seconds after he's thrown the football? Thanks. I'm sure your defensive teammates would appreciate it as well.

It'd be a help if the Jets could knock of the Pats, too. It looks like that's also a 1 PM game. Hey....could happen. No shortage of motivation for the Jets in that game, either. That'd be a good day of football if the Ravens and Jets both won. Steeler fans may need those terrible towels to dry some tears if that happened. But, I agree, they will probably get in somehow.

As long as the Steelers don't go on to win the SB, I don't care what games they win. The worse thing in the world are those blankety blank fans going the whole off season as the champs.

This might get ugly

Hope it's a good ugly. I say 19-14 Ravens. What the heck.

I don't care about the result of Week 17, I care about beating Pittsburgh, in our house. So do they. So let's take care of business, and Play Like a Raven. Not like the bunch of penalty, turnover giving up guys you have been all season long. Like the way we played the last 2 trips to Heinz Field. Get some!

[Doomville]

lol us beat them with this secondary? keep dreaming. that offense is gonna tear us up and if you think otherwise then u are drinking purple koolaid

[Ravensfansince03]

I watched the highlights from their last game. I swear the Steelers always find a way to cheat, whether it is the refs favoring them or whatever, but its always some fluke things happening that they don't get called for. With that being said HELL YES were out to spoil their playoff push.

[Ravensfansince03]

Honestly, I would say we could upset them, but... we don't have Flacco, so forget about it. Which one of these QB's on our roster can actually play consistent enough to beat them smh.

  Get back to reality and remember that we don't have a capable QB anymore.

In the past the squeelers tried to spoil it for the Ravens and played the Ravens very hard so I'm expecting the same out my squad! Gotta sling that Rock and MAKE THEM EARN IT! LETS GO!

[shiri2]

...of course Tomlin's gonna play it down like it's just another game, and the fact that it's in Baltimore has no more significance than any other location or game. He's gotta say that to maintain his cool so as not to put anymore pressure on his guys. I don't care what Harbaugh says to the press, he would love to be the spoiler to end the Squeelas's season. You know "misery loves company." If we can put the double-whammy on the Squeelas by sweeping them this season and knocking them out of the play-offs, that would be the silver lining in this gray cloud of a season!

[drillem]

Harbaugh should stand on the edge of the field and trip all their wr's throughout the game. One cheap shot deserves another a la Jacoby Jones shortened run.

[shiri2]

...our secondary stinks and so does there's. But one of the main differences is, their offense is red hot, while ours isn't even mediocre. Remember, the first time we beat them was a fluke, but who knows...maybe lightning "WILL" strike twice in the same place. Keep ya fingers crossed, true believers!! lol

[Zeus]

It's hard reading all this hype each week and yet the product on the field is total trash. As much as I hate to think of it they will destroy us at home.

Pees will give them the softest D they will ever see this season. Harbs will continue to be clueless and do something stupid when it's 4th and 9 on our 15 yard line.

[ellicottraven]

Just play your game Ravens and you'll have a shot at winning this game. Why speak of spoiling their playoff party? How bad can it really be if we fight hard but come up short? We are that close to drafting a player of Tunsil or Bosa's caliber...

[ellicottraven]

Honestly, I would say we could upset them, but... we don't have Flacco, so forget about it. Which one of these QB's on our roster can actually play consistent enough to beat them smh.

Don't forget Flacco wasn't his best this season. He was fully healthy when we were sinking at 1-6 early on... although we did beat Pittsburgh under his watch! I don't think that makes that much of a difference because Aiken has performed admirably with Schaub and Clausen at QB...

[ravenwildman]

I can't stand the Steelers.....I throw stuff out, or not let it in my house, just because it is black and yellow.....let's make something good of 2015, sweep the Steelers!!!!! ...and then I will be happy until FA and draft time GO RAVENS!

A "not at his best" Flacco is better than any other QB we have on this roster (In My Opinion of course)... Believe me, I understand your confidence, but I have to speak realisticly. As a fan, I want to believe that we can beat them, but as a football fan I know that we are not capable of beating them with any of these QB's we have right now.

 

Put yourself in Pittsburgs shoes, their looking at this as payback for when we beat them without Ben, now they face us in the exact opposite circumstances.......In our house, without our Franchise QB

 

I don't know if your trying to say that these QB's we have now are better than Flacco, or just about the same...I hope not because it is far from the truth. There's a reason why Schuab & Clausen are on our roster

Don't ever believe the hype.

[MarioDrama]

Ben will only throw for 450 yards and 5 touchdowns..

[reed20fence]

Yeah, no.

Ain't no way we winning against anybody with the current patchwork roster. This is the weakest team in football folks. Not anyones fault per se. But still undeniably the weakest team.

[KidNme]

Any given Sunday folks!

Our guys will be pumped up for this game and a lot of the young guys are just starting to feel the heat of this rivalry. Pees and Testerman aren't going to just lay down for the Squeelers and neither will our players. Can't say we have enough tools to actually win this game but as long as our guys play with heart and the play calling is realistic, I'll be happy at the end, regardless of the score. Of course, seeing as though our season has been a total bust, it would be nice to at least beat the Squeelers twice, AND, with a backup QB! THAT, would be something to hang our hats on and I thing the rest of the team feels the same way so in that regard,

Any given Sunday!

Let's go Ravens!

Oh, and you guys going to the game, stay in your seats please till the end of the game. It's a little embarrassing to see half the stadium empty and if that happens, the yellow towels will permeate the building and that just makes me sick!

You can't hold our team accountable if you can't even support your team. Our players feed off our energy so let's be the 12th man out there! It's probably going to be a close one (I hope) and our support only makes things easier for the team!

[mendii]

Beat Pittsburgh. Let's go.

[RavensAllDay1987]

Even though there is going to be more Steeler fans then Ravens Fan at the stadium Sunday, I will be there up in my section 516 like I am every home game supporting my team, So Lets go Boys and lets find a way to get it done and pull the upset Sunday and give us TRUE Fans who support the team no matter what a late Christmas gift.
