[Moderator 3]

Same could be said about the steelers 

they had to come back from down 14 and kicked six field goals against AJ Green- less bengals

They are not a good team man!  To allow a 5-8 team led by a rookie QB to hang around on them like that while they were playing their last home game with the playoffs at stake shows that they still haven't discovered who they are and how to play to that style consistently after 14 weeks now.  And then at the pressers we have to subjected to the same ole' b.s. on how they are going to improve and work on this or that.

Well..the Ravens had to come back on the Browns to win a game.  Remember?  The impressive thing to me about their win was that they were down....on the road...and yet found a way to come back and win to remain out front in the AFC North.

Agreed.. both teams have had roller coaster type seasons 

[JO_75]

Is there anyway we can lock up the AFC North with a win or do we still have to beat the Bengals in week 17?

Still have to beat the Bengals now because the Steelers have the Browns the last game of the season.

If we beat Pitt and they loose week 17, our game doesnt matter against Cinci as we would have the tie breakers against PItt

True, but l don't see how they would lose to the Browns at home. I would be shocked so l think we will have to beat the Bengals.

[Ravensfan23]

I don't care how we've got here. Ravens @ Steelers what could be better on Christmas night. I know the NFL is really happy for this one. From a game play stand point. I don't think anyone has a handle on either team. Throw the records out of the window, put your big boy pants on and pack a extra chin strap because this game will be physical and it's the brawl for it all.

Oh i agree.  But division game, Browns playing for their only win, its possible.  Just not likely

I can feel it in the air tonight.  Oh LORD!

If pittsburgh wins, they get the division.

If we win, we most likely will win the division.

Lets get this

We still have to play Cincy and thats not guaranteed.

 

Win out. Sweep this division. Kings of the North!

[K-Dog]

I gotta tell ya. I am finding it VERY difficult to get pumped for this game.

Maybe I am still a little shell shocked from our abysmal D today. Hopefully it will wear off.

I will be watching this game in Massachusetts with my wifes family. 

[DomMcRaven]

I can't even get excited for this game either. I don't trust our offense on the road nor do I trust our defense without Jimmy. Steelers offensive line is pretty good so I'm not sure our pass-rush will show up.

Now you're killing me Tank!  Hopefully, our boys will give me a reason to be relaxed and sing that on Sunday.

Really hoping Jimmy Smith comes back to practice this week. We need him out there on Antonio Brown. And if our run D could return, that'd be nice too.

If our run D doesn't return there could be an NFL single game rushing record set. 

[ravens rule]

Joe and company can't start slow because I expect Ben and his offense to score at least 24 points. If we think we can win this game 19-16 we are complete fools. It also helps to run the ball.

Bell scares me more than Ben/Brown.
