Ben in Baltimore

All three times during the regular season? That's incredible!
 
3-7 and the Steelers often look like they've never played offensive football before.
 
The record is decent, but I honestly do not remember the last time the Steelers scored a lot of points in Baltimore.

The offense always seems to struggle there.

Also, Ben's missed a LOT of games in Baltimore over the years.

Yeah, beat me to it.

The offensive always seems to suck in this game.

We usually run an ultra conservative offense there, run, run, 3rd and long. Ben lobbied to go up pace no huddle two seasons ago, Tomlin said no because Baltimores offense wasn't doing much either, yeah we don't want to get the lead or anything. Then Baltimore offense woke up, we finally went no huddle in the 4th and Ben had close to 200 yards and 2 TDs in the fourth.
We can't play scared of these guys.

On the flip side Flacco usually kills us

Honestly, I do not recall the Steelers' offense ever scoring a lot of points in Baltimore under Tomlin. One may have to go back to when either Stewart of Maddox were playing.

Though, like I said, Ben has missed a lot of these games.
 
Tomlin's teams played against McNair and Flacco
Coweher's teams played against Testiverde, Case, Boller, Grbac, Anthony Wright, Redman, Blake, Dilfer, Banks, Zeier and Harbaugh.
 
I'm not sure how many games Ben has actually started but since his rookie year, the Steelers vs tha Ravens at Baltimore is 5 wins (including today) and 9 losses. This excludes playoffs which negates a big Ben advantage.
 
Some unusual things/facts I guess. Looking at scores
At Baltimore. In 2007, the combined point total was 48. Since then it looks like 43 is the highest point accumulation when playing at Baltimore during the regular season.
