    No concerns. The Steelers will win.

    Except that the Steelers were on the road for both and Baltimore is at home for both. Yes, they are both short trips, so that may not matter as much. Baltimore plays well at home, but the Steelers have won in Baltimore recently as well.

    This is one of my concerns ...

    "A day after their 19-3 victory over the New York Jets, the Ravens got back to work out of necessity, knowing that another game is just four days away. They had their standard meetings and film review Monday morning and then a brief practice that ended at about 6 p.m. The Steelers did not practice at all.

    Traditionally after a Sunday game, the Ravens would come in on Monday, go through meetings, film review and then a walk-through practice to correct mistakes made in the game. Most players would then be out of the building late Monday afternoon and get Tuesday off. But this certainly isn't a normal week.

    That's not exactly true. Ben said in his Monday interview that they didn't have a day off because of the short week and were working out on Monday.

    Very true.. Read article which show how Bell has had the most yards as a rookie RB then any other rookie that has played with the Steelers and he has missed three games and still
    has time to put more yards up..

    So he has done really well in his first year with injuries

    I am concerned more about Flacco heaving the ball down field and getting either lucky catches, PI calls or offensive PI calls that get over looked.

    You mean like the 93 yards he put up against them in the first meeting? But hey, don't let the truth get in the way of your fantasies!

    He's more concerned with his predictions being right than the Steelers doing well. His 5-11 season prediction is getting ready to fail and once our line learns how to run block Bell will get his rushing yards. Also funny how he fails to mention what Bell has done as a receiver.

    Bell's averages are 3.2 yards per carry and 9.8 yards per catch. He also has 4 TD's while the rest of the RB's combined have 0.

    I don't get your hate for this kid. He's a rookie RB running behind a line that doesn't block very well. He's done a good job of taking what the defence has given him and often times squeezes out even more by running over someone. He's a good pass catcher and a good blocker. He's a true 3rd down RB that has a combination of power and speed. He's not going to break off too many 90 yard TD runs, but Bettis wasn't exactly breaking those off every game either.

    My concern with this game is that it's a division game and this is probably the biggest rivalry going in the NFL. Teams get up for these games. No matter how well we're playing and how bad they have looked at times, this is going to be a close game. We need to play mistake free or we could be in trouble.
