Steelers Vs Ravens?

..I think it is the Steeler's game to lose. It depends on which offensive line shows up. Last Sunday was the first time the whole team has been healthy since training camp (minus the punter which is a huge advantage to the Ravens). To paraphrase Mike Tomlin...This game would be a barn burner if it were a scrimmage; it just so happens that it is for the AFC championship. Your thoughts?
And I mean calling all cars, blackhawk down, mushroom cloud, Three Mile Island, lock the door behind you kind of mad.:mad:

    Best hard hitting game you will see all year most likely.
    I am a Browns fan, so it does not matter to me but it is a super match-up.

    Big Ben is from Findlay, OH (my hometown from long ago...my Dad and most of my family still live there), so I will have to root for Ben and the Steelers.

    Regardless of the winner.. it's a game for the quarterback to lose. The quarterback that doesn't turn the ball over will get a trip to Tampa.

    I don't care who wins as long as it'a good game. It's too far into the playoff for lopsided games so this will be a good game. I can't say the same between the the Eagles and Cardinals. I think it's going to be a one sided game, not sure which side yet.

    look at the offensive yards the gmen and titans put up on those birds. Our d (im obviously a steelers fan) is better, at home and you have flacco. Do the math. If our line plays even just ok we run you out of pittsburgh. It will only be tough to handle for a couple days following sunday.

    it will be as quiet as a church in here monday from the ravens fans. Im from outside of harrisburg right in eagles/ravens territory. Loserville i call it for the fans of those 2 teams, steelersville for the winners. They do have 1 total superbowl win between them, thats pretty good fo 50+tries between the two teams. 2%, similar to the odds of one of them winning it this year as well.

    I think the only way the Steelers could lose this game is if Ben turns it over multiple times. If Flacco turns it over more than once, Steelers blowout.

    I don't think this will be as close as many think. Not as bad as the Charger game, but I have a feeling the Steelers will win by at least a TD. The Raven pass defense gives up lots of yards, but rely's on TO's. Roethlisberger and his OL looked good last week against a Charger pass rush that had been playing really good. I think Pittsburgh win's the TO battle.

    It is going to be a War.

    Our Ravens are pretty beat up. I hoping for the best but prepared for the worst. It has been a good run so far.

    Agreed. The Titans beat themselves. 3 turn overs inside the 30 and like 90 yards in penalties.

    I'm a titans fan and would love to see the Ravens go all the way (that way i can say at least my team got kicked by the superbowl champs...lol) but I really dont think they're going to make it past the steelers...either way, go Ravens!

    I lost all respect for Ed Reed after he tried to bend Chris Johnson over backwards long after the whistle had blown multiple times. Ball-hawk or not, that was a dirty play. Yes, the Titans lost that game on their own. If Johnson plays the second half, I thionk the Titans win regardless of turn-overs.

    Im planning on heading out for the game sunday and i can tell you there are more ravens fans worried then ther are steelers fans. We can make a couple mistakes and still win, they cant. We WILL rush for over 100 yards and force flacco to throw the ball. Ravens fans, Good luck.

    The more negativity posted against the Ravens in the media the better they will play on Sunday. They excell at the role of underdog and although it will be a nail biter till the end my gut feeling is that the Ravens will prevail and move on to the Superbowl ;) thanks....WCW III
