Week 16 - Baltimore Ravens at Pittsburgh Steelers

[JO_75]

Would really like to shut them down and beat them down big, and this time not let them back into the game. Start to send a message to the rest of the AFC, that you don't want the Ravens coming to your stadium or if by chance the Patriots lose and we host the AFC Title Game and they don't want to come to Baltimore. Though it will be closer than we want, my prediction, January Joe leads us down the field to Tucker Range and Tucker hits a 47 YD Game winning field goal.

Ravens 27

Steelers 24

Steelers without Stephon Tuitt, WR Sammie Coats and TE Ladarius Green. We gotta shut down Brown like we did in November, who covered Brown in the first game?

I think we did what we always do the first game, Jimmy has his side, Tavon has the other, and Powers in the slot. I suspect we'll do the same today except insert Wright instead of Jimmy. I think at this point we kind of have to give up the idea that we'll change the gameplan when one of our main guys are out, Pees always just rolls out the same D with the next man up, today will be the same.

Only half an hour until game time, so ready but obviously scared, for all intents and purposes our regular season is over and we're in the playoffs from here on out since we can't lose either of our last two and have a realistic shot at the playoffs. We'll see how we perform. I trust the D to slow down their offense, the question is whether our offense will give them time to rest so they can do it all game. Very winnable game, this'll end close as always.

That's what I'm thinking. I don't (and hope it's not a blowout) think it's a blowout but it wouldn't surprise me.

 

we need to heat up and now is the time 

[JO_75]

Someone needs to show Joe a calender and convince him that it's January and not Christmas. Unless Joe's Christmas present to the fans is January Joe showing up in Pittsburgh.

[Grapple Raven]

Merry Christmas Flock!  Heres to a Ravens victory today!!! Think positive!  Somebody's gotta win this game today and as far as I am concerned it might as well be us, lol.

Thank you. I thought it was just me. VERY Steeler-centric in this coverage.

Our run D really needs to show up today, if they're as porous as last week then we've got no shot. They can stop Bell, they've done it before, now do it today.

Oh boy... don't like that. Much prefer them to pick against us and then we go and prove them wrong.

When I watch games like these I wish I lived in Colorado, Washington, California or Maine. I'd definitely mellow out before kickoff. Then, maybe have a beer or two.
