Great start to the game for the Ravens... get the 3 and out, with 2 good defensive plays... hit Pittsburgh in the mouth immediately on offense.

Great crowd tonight.

Good.  Just avoid Troy.  If he's at the LOS, throw it deep.  If he's deep, check it down, lol.  He's been playing well in this winning streak for Pitt (not surprisingly).

See, I would go at Polamalu all day. His strength is playing downhill and towards the LOS. He's never been great in coverage and those skills have eroded further. I would do everything we can to take advantage of his aggressive nature.


The other thing I would be all about is attacking the hell out of Ike Taylor. There may not be a more overrated CB in the league. He benefited greatly from Pittsburgh's zone blitz and their pass rush providing relentless pressure. As the defense has slipped a little and the pressure isn't as consistent, Taylor is exposed. He hand fights and holds all the way down the field. Attack him all night.

Great call as always.

Steelers pick up a 3rd down... Webb not quite able to get Brown down.

Shovel pass works on 3rd and 2.

Number of Steelers fans there...hear them as Miller makes the catch.

Another 3rd down... this time, Ben throws it into the ground.

Bringing the house with the blitzes. Gotta be careful.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Nice run there... 1st down for the Ravens... 1 minute left in the 1st.

Stokley starts the 2nd Quarter, with his 2nd catch on 3rd and 5...

Al Michaels... "Rice hurt his hip... first time he says he has been hurt.. just didn't feel right until the end of October."

[BSLChrisStoner]

Where was that 3rd and 8 going, even if the catch is made? Ugh.

 

Ravens to punt.

Yeah... terrible call/check down. Glad to pick a couple first downs up and flip field position a bit though.

[BSLChrisStoner]

Ben picks up the 1st with his legs.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Cody needs to go.

[You Play to Win the Game]

Didn't realize Dumervil has had 9.5 sacks. That's felt quiet to me.

[BSLChrisStoner]

3rd and 9... right around midfield... Ben avoids Ravens rushers... finds Sanders... 9 mts left in the 1st half.

Gotta bring him down when we get to him. Same as it's always been.
