I would say stream it online, but no matter where you go the screen will freeze nearly every play, right as the ball is snapped. NFL has absolutely nothing to do with that though, I'm sure...

I don't think Sunday Ticket plays prime time games, but I might be wrong.

I have NFL Ticket. It plays every game that is not on your local network TV.

Welcome back! Long time , no see.

I can see our teams being close for the drafting success - though I think you guys kill us when it comes to drafting WRs.

 

 

Ya, but between drugs and injuries, we can't keep them on the field.

Don't play nationally televised games or games in your area.

You will have NFL Network. I have Directv and its on channel 212. You could also have NFL Sunday ticket but you don't have too.

I made a bet with him before the Dolphins game. He said we would lose and I bet that if he was wrong, he had to stop posting on here forever, and If the Dolphins won, I would do the same thing. We all know how that turned out. 

Wow, forever is high stakes, that is pretty intense

Errrr... the pass rush gas been pretty invisible, so not sure where you'd get this idea...

To me a pass rush is working if it pressures the QB and hurries his decision to throw or become mobile and not just ending up in a sack. We get in the backfield often enough that a QB does not get to comfortable. And now that we have Doom and Suggs back it will only be better.

No Sunday Ticket for this one. This game is a "special" airing of Thursday night football on NFLN. Pretty sure all Directv customers get NFLN. 

[mc_red23]

I'm hoping I won't be too drunk at 9:30pm over here to watch the game. 

The guys are spending Christmas morning/day away from their families and/or children, they're going to give their all without a doubt, I just hope it's enough to get the job done.

I think it has definitely picked up in the second half of the season, the last few games, with Doom back, but to start the year, it was dreadful.

Living in VA, I didn't want to miss out on watching my Ravens play.  So, I have both Directv for the NFL Network and Sunday Ticket.

[Moderator 3]

If you have NFLN through either satellite or cable, you can use their mobile app to watch the game.  Just download the app, signon through your normal provider and voila...live TV. 

[SoCal]

If you have verizon as your cell provider you will be able to watch the game for free on your phone via the NFL mobile app fyi.

I'm going out for dinner (lunch?) at 3:30. This might be a life saver

[OLD SCHOOL SMASH BALL]

Only Michael Irvin of the NFL NETWORK Crew picked us. 

I think the Ravens need some GUMPTION, as the old timers would say. 

Time to gird up your loins, and focus. The world is against us, its no doubt the refs will be against us too, its a Squeeler lovefest we are walking into. 

-Will Joe step up his game, or will it be deer in the headlights Road Joe?

-Will Marty actually commit to the run, and not just run the ball when Joes arm gets tired?

-Can the CB's step up against the leagues best deep threat? More specifically, can Shareece Wright cover?

-Will the Dline look like swiss cheese vs Bell this week like they did vs the Eagles, or will they be a destructive force?

Will Coaching blunders rule the day, or will the coaches actually make in game adjustments to stop the bleeding.

Tune in at 4:30 tomorrow to find out if the Grinch will steal Christmas playoff hopes from us, or if we will actually overcome the prognosticators, and bloody the yellow crying towel.

No way, Jose! The Wizard and I have agreed on many things but he has crossed the line this time like James Patterson, the author . There's no way Big Ben and his merry men will score 34 points in the first half. They won't even score 34 points in the game. If that were to happen, I suspect Harbaugh and Newsome would be on the last train to Clarksville. If that happens, they should be run out of town on a rail. I have said all along that this team is a bunch of underachievers. They have enough talent to beat the Squeelers if they are coached properly. The high powered Steelers offense that the Wizard raves about has scored 341 points in 14 games while our offense has scored 306 points. By my 'rithmetic, that's less than 3 points a game more. Whoopie! The Wizard is right about one thing though. He predicted we would win 6 games and we have! If this goes as it should, we will win 6 + 4 = 10 games. See! There's more than one Wizard in this town, Mr. Broken Spirit. I predicted the final score long before the Wizard did and I said our beloved Ravens would win the game on a Justin Tucker field goal by a score of 23-20. Nothing has changed. Unlike the Cincy Bungles who laid down in the 2nd half against the Squeelers, the Ravens will lay the wood to Big Ben and his band of men. All the terrible towels in the world and Mike Tomlin trying to trip our receivers will not intimidate the unflappable Joe Flacco and the twin Grinches, named Wallace and Smith, who will steal Christmas from the Steelers on Christmas Day in Spittsburgh, PA. By game's end, your team's colors will change from black and yellow to black and blue and your terrible towels can be used for crying towels. Elvis (Doomerville, that is) will be singing his rendition of Blue Christmas to your fans. The General will have his way with Big Ben. Son, this is gonna be fun!!!   

 

I think I might have wrote my prediction esoterically because I am predicting the final score to be 34 -14 and that the game will be over at halftime with a score some thing like 21-7. Count on it-the Steelers will put up at least 34 in this game based on the eye popping moves of Bell who ends up making us look like pee wee leaguers. We are up a creek on this one without a paddle. Things would be different if the game was at M&T Bank. Today we see Har-ball in all it's complete dysfunctionality and just maybe I will get my Christmas wish and we begin to close the book on John Harbaugh in Baltimore.

If it comes down to a last-minute deep pass, please throw to Wallace, not Perriman. Wallace has much better hands and will likely want to give his old team a what fer. Perriman on the other hand has a drop rate of over 50%. As we saw last week, this includes passes that hit him right in the palms of his hands.

I'd love to see that stat. Where did you get it from?

[hen826957]

Miami is winning right now 28-21 so if the score stays and Miami wins, we will have to beat Pittsburgh or our season is done no matter what happens. No way we can't get in if Miami wins and we lose to Pittsburgh.

Wiz, in the immortal words of the late great Jim Kelly (Martial Artist) in the Bruce Lee flick...Enter the Dragon...."Man!  You come right out of a comic book!"

Go stand in the corner for the remainder of the season and playoffs brah....

And they (Steelers) know that as well!  

Better believe that they would love nothing more than to come out on Christmas Day and...ONCE AGAIN....eliminate the Ravens from the playoffs...in front of Steelers Nation.  A difficult task for the Ravens just became more difficult!
