Tavon Young is making an impression. I think we may finally have a legit player opposite Jimmy Smith.

Still obviously have another game vs Pitt this year so I dont want to jinx anything, but the Ravens are 9-3 in last 12 games vs Steelers, dating back to that bad loss in the 2010 playoffs.
They say this has been one of the best rivalries in sports but it's been a pretty lopsided one the last 5 years.

Fucking Houshmanzadeh. That was really 6 years ago?
Yup. Housh giveth and taketh away. He did catch that TD to win the game in Pitt in 2010.

He deserved it.
The kid is a player.

What a fun game. I was surrounded by Steelers fans (including 2 from Iceland) at my house, so it made it even that much more sweet.
Ben looked really bad. We did a great job on Bell. We still looked shaky on the line... Stanley, you're killing me man. What was that? D was quite good until the 4th. It was good to see Webb finally make a couple plays out there. Weddle is all over the place. What a beast.

High scores for Lewis and Wagner last week.
How is this humanly possible? I mean Wagner seemed to have a fine enough game, but when the offensive line has the performance it had, and Lewis really didn't stand out to me and RSR hammered him on this one play: http://russellstreet...-vs-pittsburgh/ Juice also looked bad and has really missed blocks.
I think to some degree the bad blocks aren't counting negative in the running plays. And it's a different guy on every single play. I just have a hard time thinking 3 of the top performers for the Ravens last week were guys that were involved heavily in the running game. Particularly given Yanda wasn't one of them.

PFF grades are trash
Unless they support a point you are trying to make. Then it's "I don't put much faith in PFF stats but they agree with my analysis here".
(I'm guilty of the same thing often enough, especially in regards to defensive stats in baseball)

Btw, this ticket market is insanely depressed. I couldn't unload my Steelers tix for face value when in year's past I got easily twice face.
So, if you're trying to go to a game, wait it out and pounce late. It's a buyer's market if you want to go. You can probably have a blast tailgating Thursday night and get into the game for around $30.

There is some truth to this. I especially don't put any faith in their OL gradesUnless they support a point you are trying to make. Then it's "I don't put much faith in PFF stats but they agree with my analysis here".

Yeah I think those are way off. It's clear they rate the pass blocking positive plays highly, but with the running performance we saw this week, I'm not sure how any OL got a decent score. Or even more specifically, our FB.

There's a ton of factors that dictate demand. I did well selling the Steelers game last year, but really wanted to go this year and I am glad I did. Fun time.
It also sucks since I am a season ticket holder that I have hard copy tickets that can't be transferred electronically so if I am selling them on StubHub I have to sell them by Wednesday at 3 PM so they can be delivered by Saturday at the latest via UPS. Takes the whole last minute market out of the equation for me.
Oh well, last year was the only time I have really bailed on going to the games in 10 years. Hope it doesn't get that bad again.

What % of the stadium capacity was full?
It seemed mostly full.
I mean a Steeler/Raven game is always going to be packed. The tickets will get moved, just depends on what the cost is.
This year the cost was very low.

Is that something I can set up in my account on the Ravens site?
