Steelers vs Ravens

I don't understand (save for one play), the lack of attacks down field against their putrid secondary

Ben and Haley need to open it up and attack.............
 
Well we took the Rats best shot...now it's time for some adjustments.

Steelers will open up the offense in the second half.
 
Hines is right abandon the run(for the most part) DO NOT BRING ARCHER OUT FOR ONE MORE F'ING play, it telegraphs to the Ravens that it's pass all the way. Use HArris and Tate for just enough to keep them honest, AIR IT OUT!

Tomlin, Haley & LeBeau better get this team fired up at Halftime....they are being owned by a ****** Rats team with no offense!

I dont see this ownage....we have the advantage in every statistical category....we just need to cash in on these drives into the redzone....Baltimore gifted us a fresh set of downs on the first and goal and we take a sack...cant have that...we should be winning this game by at least 7.

The Rats D just sends one more than you have in to block....doesn't give Ben much time especially when Bell is not in there to keep their Run D honest.
 
Stop the run have flacco beat you simple their pass rushers will get tired of pass rushing the whole second have

Ugh seeing the Steelers just going 5 wide is showing the Rats a one dimension team. They should keep a back in there and run out of the spread to see if they can get the ground game going.

The rats D line is solid.... I don't know what we can accomplish by trying to establish a run game..... A surprise run out of the blue may work, but this game is up to Ben to win

I can't imagine anyone happy right now....not scoring at least one TD in the first half is just killer.

When **** gets tight in the fourth quarter, they will dearly miss not getting a td off one of those wasted drives.

Rats are gonna play man the second half and I'm talking bellicheat style mugging/holding .
 
I don't think we did take the Rats best shot. They haven't really attacked our secondary either. As long as we start attacking and our D can keep the Rats from getting the big throws, we should be OK.
 
Hurry up might slow the fat boys down, a couple nice big plays would be nice. Seems to be no rhythm and the D needs to stop the penalties and let the Rat Birds play their dirty style. Needs some plays both side of the ball and wouldn't it be nice to see Troymake one more big play at the right time. Hate to see troy go but you can see it.
 
We've had the ball for over 20 minutes their d will wear down in the second half of we keep that up

Archer has done nothing all year to even be on the field...............

24 passes by Ben and none down field. That has to change immediately in the 2nd. I don't think he threw a ball more than 20 yards past the LOS.

He had some passes downfield...that once caught by Brown in the endzone but he was pushed out of bounds was 40+ yds.

With no running game the Rats are just loading up coming after Ben.

Steelers have got to re-establish the running game!

It's great that they are protecting the d by holding the ball. We see what happens when the Ravens do get the ball, but they have GOT to get a three and out to start the third and convert it to a td.

I think the gameplan has been "dink-and-dunk" to run the clock to save the D....problem is, they are not scoring TDs. Keeping the clock running carries way too much risk IMO.
 
They are missing Bell the pass protector more than the runner
 
Hines appears to have taken too many hits to the head. Tells the Steelers to completely abandon the run and for the Rats to run to set up the pass.
 
Ben needs to drop back and let it fly.....He's holding the ball way too long.....
 
Ok.....here we go.....30 minutes left.....
 
We can only hope their D will wear down. Our D needs to hit Flacco and hard. He has been pretty clean back there. Our D should be fresh.
 
Time to see who wants this game!
 
nice job by the ST
