In August, I would've liked the Ratbirds in this one. But the Stillers have definitely played better the first three weeks.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Good luck, Terrible Towels. I don't have a good feeling about this one for the Ravens - 17-10 Stillers.

Thinking the same but I don't like everyone picking the Steelers - Rey and company don't need extra motivation

'Sup, roady? Pretty, but cool, here in Woodstock.

Stay on the lookout for cheap real estate near you. We'll spend our retirement Sundays looking out over the Blue Ridge, drinking beer and insulting whoever is the Ravens current QB. :(

This is always the hardest-hitting, most physical game in all of football. Gotta love it!

It's all cheap out here, my man!

McGahee starting the game.

 

[jah2707]

any news on rice?

 

[ceo3west]

Rice on sidelines in uniform, just not starting. Simms did say he didn't look sharp in warmups.

Just awesome.

How come Simms knows this and not any of the reporters on-site before kickoff who could have told us he wasn't safe to start?

 

[roadkill1292]

Credit Troy for pushing the Ravens back out of Cundiff's comfort zone.

Sweet catch by Randle-El. This doesn't look good.

 

[Sweatpants]

I'd love to watch this game but Nashville doesn't want me to.

 

[elbowrm]

Relief to see Mendy in on 1st and goal - and to get both carries for the TD.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Nice drive by Pittsburgh. Their O line is playing well.

 

[Choke]

Nice drive by Pittsburgh. Their O line is playing well.

Pouncey, Legrusky and Adams from Center to RT is entirely new from last year... and a million times better at run blocking.

 

[timschochet]

Mason having a very productive day. 5 catches already.

Ray Rice appearance. 2 yard gain.

 

[roadkill1292]

Rice just got a carry.

Nice catch by Mason. Need more of those.

 

[roadkill1292]

Time for Joe to get that medium passing game cranked up and put those quality receivers to good use. Can't help but think that the Stillers will find a way to make big plays when they need to, though.

 

[jmack0311]

Wow Mcgahee breaking defender's ankles there

 

[timschochet]

Looks like this game is going to be McGahee 80%, Rice 20%. As to whether that's one game or the future, who knows?

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Nice comeback drive by the Ravens. Flacco playing well so far, but I have a feeling LeBeau has something for him coming up.

 

[Hellfire Snail]

Dude. Really?

If Rice is healthy, he gets the bulk of touches.

 

[The Doctor]

unbelievable

mcgahee already out scored rice. what a waste of a pick

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Good Lord. This Pepperjack cheese I got is blazing hot. I pity the porcelain in this house later.

Oh, nice tackle by Ngata.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Damn it, Ellerbe!

 

[roadkill1292]

Oof, Ratbirds missed a golden opportunity on the Batch fumble but the pressure they're getting as this game goes on is encouraging.

 

[timschochet]

I have to say this is the best any offense has looked against the Steelers defense this year. Steelers are kind of lucky this is a tie score. Flacco especially looks extremely sharp today.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Good first half of football. Ravens should've had more points and I think that'll come back to haunt them.

They're getting the best of the calls today and you can't expect that to last. I think they'll need to generate 2 more TDs to win because sooner or later a big play is gonna go the Stillers' way.

 

[tkrull]

Any chance H.Miller runs a pass route this game?

batch missed him wide open - so the count is at 1

 

[CaptainHook]

is it me or does mcclain look and run more like a de than an rb

 

[timschochet]

McGahee hurt on that fumble.

 

[jude]

yeah i own rice, but cmon, mcgahee stinks

 

[Uruk-Hai]

McGahee hurt on that fumble.

He looked like he was knocked out before he hit the ground. That was a huge play & possibly a game-changer.

 

[roadkill1292]

This is how Pitt can win this game, forcing turnovers and delivering a short field to batch. With no Ed Reed, the Ravens aren't generating any of that kind of stuff themselves this year.

 

[timschochet]

McGahee seems OK on the sideline.

 

[jude]

serves baltimore right. rice can play and should be.

 

[timschochet]

That was a huge play & possibly a game-changer.

As it turns out, no. I don't blame Reed, I blame Arians' playcalling. Just terrible.

 

[roadkill1292]

Big stand there.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

Well, we have Troy knocking the Ravens out of FG range & Suggs knocking the Steelers out of it.

 

[CrossEyed]

Batch looks like he has no idea what he's doing out there today.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

serves baltimore right. rice can play and should be.

My bad....didn't realize you were on the Baltimore sideline & understood how bad Rice's knee was.

 

[timschochet]

A slow developing end around for 1 yard. A run up the middle for 1 yard. Putting your QB 3rd and long against one of the best pas rushes in football. What do you expect, Bruce? That's what you get. ####
