For us to beat the Ravens without Ben Roethlisberger we must.................

 

not beat ourselves in anyway.

 

So we should beat off the defenders? LOL.

 

...be delirious?

 

...put a hit out on the entire Ravens D. :innocent:


Seriously though, I think the Steelers D is going to have to step up in a way that they haven't all year long. The O is going to have to do enough to get by with Lefty, but the D is going to have to stop Flacco and they are going to have to create multiple turnovers that result in points, which we all know hasn't been happening yet this year.

 

Stop getting stupid penalties!

 

Turn them over and not turn the ball over ourselves.

 

must hold the ravens to 6 points or less (and thats not gonna happen)

hines

 

TURNOVERS!!!!! none from us, and our D has to create a few!!!

 

Play situational football limiting penalties and turnovers. Our defense must assert themselves and takecontrol of the game while we give them a heavy dose of the run game with our three horses. We're gonna run the wheels off our lead dog.

Cajun-

 

Score more points than them.

 

put in our backup quarterback.

 

send flacco to the sideline in the first quarter

 

on a stretcher for the rest of the game.

 

...put points up in the other areas of the game. (ie if special teams and the defense could score some points that would be huge)

...run the ball effectively.

...not turn the ball over.

...the defense is going to have to control the game and stop Flacco and Rice from hurting us.

 

Manhandle their poor run D. Long drives for 7 that keep those dirty birds on the sideline.

 

D plays the game of their lives and gets to Flacco - alot, run the ball against the aging Raven's D, get the ball quickly out of Leftwich's hands.

 

contain Rice. if they can stop the run we win

 

I'm a bit worried about that the way that KC ran to the right side all over our Defense. Look for more of the same from the Rats.

 

Punt on 1st down throughout the game and score points directly off of their muffed punts. Oh wait - you can't advance a muff (although I've dreamt about it often). Damn! Back to the drawing board. Unless of course we employ our proven OT strategy and kick FGs on 1st down. That might work.

 

Have a big back who can beat off defenders

 

score points on special teams or defense.
