Steelers by 30.

Game will be over by the middle of the 3rd quarter when Flacco is put on the elite qb bench and Ray Lewis takes a turn at quarterback.

Great game to go to. Only bad part is the injuries to defense, but it doesn't take a full squad to slow down Flacco and co.

Flacco is back from the dead (last week's game yesterday's first half) and now hes stronger than ever ala Gandalf coming back as Gandalf the White.

I want to believe! Ravens vs. Steelers just brings out something else in both teams it's hard to determine which team is going to show up and play.

Ravens were a lot hungrier for the win than we were last time around. Hoping Tomlin gets everyone to play their ass off since they've got the bye next week to recover mentally/physically.

I'd love to use the Cardinals and Titans games as references and say "They beat us, but we beat both of those teams and they lost to them"...but I'm pretty sure that means fuck on Sunday.

If you can stop the run you can beat the Ravens.

I'm going with Ravens 91-6.

Be careful what you ask for, Ray Lewis might be able to come in and "slice" up your defense. Though after the game he will claim he was never there and has no idea who did it.

As do I. The man encourages this type of thing. It's like he wants them to become the league's most hated team. It's stupid.
Doesn't surprise me. His face and demeanor after the whole Harbaugh-shook-my-hand-too-hard-and-patted-my-back-like-an-athlete-woe-is-me totally reminded me of that kid we all knew when we were younger, you know the one who you and your friends all hated but just had to be nice to and let him be a part of everything because you just knew he'd run off and tell his parents or the teacher in seconds if otherwise.

A little punk basically. A little punk.

Perhaps I'm having a harder time coming to grips with a "post-Ward" receiving core, but I can't shake the thought that Hines would probably still be the guy I'd want to throw it to in clutch situations before Brown...especially before Sanders. The Young Money are awesome, and will be a dangerous crew for many years to come assuming they stick together, but Ward just has an intangible to him that still leaves him in the line-up for me.

I do think a healthy Ward could have helped convert at least one of those 3s into a 7 yesterday.

I got grudge sucked!
I just saw the Patrick Bailey blocked punt for TD. He's like 1 of only 5 Blue Devils in the league. Our football program sucks.

Yeah Ward is still decent around the goal line. In short yardage he can still get it done against lousy defenses.

Sure. I don't think I can beat sad Flacco though.

Ben has historically owned the Ravens and with the exception of a game or two in 2006 he has won every single big game against that shitty franchise. The best part of it is he usually does not deliver the dagger until the last minute of a contest.

Remember when he went 99 yards with the division title on the line in 2008? Ahh, memories...

Sounds like Chris Johnson is going to be losing significant playing time to Javon Ringer.

“In general, we knew we were going to give both guys a chance to get reps and get some plays,” Coach Mike Munchak said. “It was just a matter of how we rotated them. There really wasn’t much thought to it. It was just more or less how the game was going.”

“I think every game will be different,” Munchak said. “I just think it depends on the flow of the game, how it’s going. I don’t think we’re consciously trying to decide by series who’s playing.

“We know we’re a work in progress as a run game. We know we’re not where we want to be yet by any means.”

Heads up, if anyone wants to pick up some NFL gear on the cheap, Reebok is running a code today CYBER40 - 40% off and free shipping. I picked up a Smith replica and a Panthers fleece hoodie for $78 shipped.

Tried, couldnt get it to work. Any restrictions?

Chris Johnson will be one of the highest paid back-ups of all time by the time of the end of the season gets here.

Hm, odd. The only thing I saw was "Excludes items ending with .98 in the price, NHL Premier Jerseys, and YourReebok."

I just tried it to see if it works and it says the coupon has expired. Sorry!

AP is the only RB worth paying for.

All of the rest of them are disposable and that money would be better spent on a quality offensive line.

So do I honestly, that coaching staff is trash.

I agree with this. Everything about him has regressed since last year. Kyle Orton too looks massively worse than he did last season. Pretty much everything about the Broncos looks worse this year than it did last season. Not trying to excuse Tebow's sorry performance yesterday but the entire Denver Broncos team was utterly pathetic yesterday, not just Tebow.

Can't believe that Ravens fans think they have a chance. :jnc

Pitt's offense with Yung Money looks deadly as hell, and the Raven offense with Guido Flacco looks like Ben's penis after banging whatever fat hooker he keeps with him at all time. Basically, they look like dirty string cheese. Ravens D vs. Pitts D leaves the Ravens on top, but Pitts O v. Ravens O just isn't even a contest. Pitt can score at will, Ravens can barely get across midfield without a turnover.

Talking heads saying that Flacco is good for leading them back from behind. But Arizona is a terrible team, so that point is moot.

Texans are better than Pitt, Pitt is better than the Ravens right now, so the Texans must be better than the Ravens right now.

Edit: Fucka-you Bionic, Foster is worth paying. At least more than the 500k he's getting right now. Its criminal how little money he is making.

Fuck! I was just going to order several things too :( Was hoping to grab a Gore jersey as well as a hoodie. I guess I'll wait til i find another good deal.

i feel bad for Tebow because I believe he was misled by JOsh McDaniel and yes-men in the media into thinking he was an NFL quarterback.
"And Orton hands off to the fullback tebow... He pulls up! Tebow lobs it to Lloyd for a touchdown!

Phil, If you remember tebow played quarterback at Florida so seeing him throw a pass shouldnt be a surprise

That's right, looks like he can still throw once in a while"

Do you think there is an NFL offense he could be successful in (as a quarterback)? Not necessarily a team, specifically, but a system.

Were Orton and Tebow traded to the Rams? lol

The Broncos used to be ok a few years ago.When did they get so terrible?

Josh McDaniels wasted their 1st round draft on Knowshon Moreno and then Tim Tebow the next year. That probably didn't help matters.

And any talent they did have was traded away.

He traded UP for Tebow. The Broncos have sucked for a while now. The Chargers have been the team to beat even when Shanny was there.

When is the last time you remember Hines making a big catch dude? It has been years!

I love him, but everyone is afraid to say that he is washed up as a receiver. That doesn't change the fact that he was one of the best Steelers receivers of all time, but nothing lasts forever.


Damn, just put him on an ice floe and watch him drift off. Celebrate youth.
Not really.
I'd keep the man, he'll let you know when he needs to retire.
A clutch player. I would keep him as a starter if it were my team.

LeSean McCoy is another good young RB deserving of getting paid.

Running backs shouldn't get paid. They aren't worth it.

Bears are doing the right thing by not locking Forte up long term. Slap him with the franchise tag for ~7.5 million next season.

They still have the same staff, give or take, from last year. McCoy is still the OC, but he's taking orders from a different man. Don't really see the open passing game they had when that douche was HC.

I think there are a few coaches that would probably put him in a better position to win. Win consistently, not willing to go there. The guy dinked and dunked his entire career at Florida, he's not going to throw 20 yard corner routes, or deep posts, it's not what he did.

One back offseason with short throws and he'll move the ball for you. Focus on getting the ball out quick with short throws, that's what he did at Florida and that's what he should be doing now.

Oh fuck, thats right, they drafted Demaryius Thomas with their 1st round pick that year and then traded a shit ton of picks to go back in and get Tebow. I totally forgot Demaryius Thomas existed.

I love clutch players, but every time I can remember in recent memory when Ben went to Hines on a big play over the middle he usually ends up dropping the ball when he gets crunched.

Agreed that Hines has been less inspiring lately...but I know in the clutch he'd come through! NEVERMIND THE NUMBERS AND THE RECENT PERFORMANCE! I [I]FEEL[/I] IT!
