Great game.


We owe these ******* one. I hope the Steelers carry this momentum and crush the Ratbirds next. Division game....very important.
 
If we can get pressure on Flacco like we did on Luck today we can win easily. Getting TD's vs. FG's will also be key (like I even need to say that). An early lead would be really nice as well. And oh yeah, establish the run early, and get a couple of turnovers including a pick 6. :)
 
It will be tough.

Ravens might be without Jimmy Smith, their only decent cb....offense shouldn't have issues scoring points.
 
If jimmy smith is sidelined, our receivers have no excuse, i repeat NO EXCUSE, for not tearing their secondary up. Brown, Bryant and even Heath should feast on yards and touchdowns. I do NOT want to see the scrub that is Chykie Brown, out there looking like he's neon Deion
 
We usually play these guys better at home. The team is definitely on a roll except for the secondary. We need to figure that out so we don't get torched for chuck and pray for a flag plays next week.
 
A must-win game. I fully expect us to continue to be the division whipping boy and get drubbed.
 
If we can keep Ben safe and also pressure Flunco we should win it hands down. We saw our own blue print on Sunday. We gave the Rats plenty to look at on film. Hopefully too much to ingest in one week.

I for one did not see yesterday coming. We know the Colts didn't. We simply need to execute.

do you have anything relevant to say or are you just going to continue to be a pot stirrer ?
 
I'm not sure what to expect. Yesterday was a total shock to me and all I could think of was, please save some of these points for next week! Anyway, I have no idea what team will show up, the one that was listless and lifeless at Cleveland and during just about all of the first half against Houston, or the seemingly unstoppable force that blew up the Colts D yesterday. They should be fired up cause it's the Rats...and it's at home...and there's a national audience....and cause of the Mean Joe celebration. But we'll see, I just have no idea what the pulse of this team is for this year, they're all over the place.
 
This will be a much tougher game and I do not anticipate lots of yards and points in this one. The Ravens are very physical on both sides of the ball so we better be efficient on offense and score TD's in the red zone not kick FG's. Establish the run game with Bell and Blount, give Ben the time he needs, and win time of possession.

Defensively, Rush the QB. Rush The QB. Rush the QB. I'm liking what I see in Big Dan who seems to do something the other two can't, push the pocket and occupy two OL. Cortez must make a comeback or they need to pull his *** early for Blake.

how bout trying to say why you think the Ravens will win..instead of name calling (whipping boy)...stupid lame *** personal prediction (we will get drubbed) with nothing what so ever to back up your thoughts...what you posted is not closely connected its just pot stirring as I stated..

Yes, clearly not connected in any way.

:rolleyes:
 
When the Steelers have the ball:
1. Time of possession (again) to wear down their defense.
2. Protect the football. The Rats are masters of stripping, tipping and getting turnovers.
3. Break Suggs' leg before he breaks Bens. Suggs' mission in life is to hurt QB's and incite mayhem. If he gives Ben a cheap shot there will be yellow hankies flying all night.
When the Rats have the ball:
1. Somebody needs to be all over Torrey Smith like a cheap suit but beware he is a wizard at drawing pass interference calls. Flacco has made a lot of hay going deep to T. Smith, collecting a PI call and getting the ball in the Red Zone without the clown even catching the ball!
2. Let Joe Flacco know why the best he could ever be at Pitt was Tyler Palko's backup. Once Flacco gets knocked around he reverts to making hail Marys and gets happy feet.
3. Shut down their screens and running game.
4. Admit once and for all these turds are tough on both sides of the football and there was not and there is not now a "distraction" over the Ray Rice insanity.
 
Rtas are rather bad at pass defense. They are above average at run defense. If we try one more time to impose our will by running on them we are jackasses and the staff should be fired. You dont beat a team like the ravens by playing to their strengths. Pass, all day... burn them with screens when they blitz. Hopefully Harrison drop kicks Flacco as a going away present to himself. Also tell Troy to just play it straight at safety. JoeFlo is going to throw the jump balls and honestly if we just played typical safety spots we probably steal a few
 
If we can maintain the level of intensity and control the tempo of the game and keep the crowd in the game we can win just can't stop attacking on each side of the ball.
 
I just want us to punish the Rats and expose their secondary. I would love another 40+ points by us again, and a solid D performance.
