I don't care about division implications....

Problem is we are really 3 games behind with the loss to the Rats already, they own the tiebreaker and a loss there just about kills any title for us.

They are destroying a second team that already beat us, the Seahawks being the first. They are a better team with a much better head coach


And a defense that knows how to protect a 4th qtr lead.
 
Somewhere there are Dolphin players from that undefeated team popping a bottle of champagne...or a diuretic.
 
Easy schedule left for us? Problem with that is we are on their level. Nothing is guaranteed. The Steelers are a very poorly coached team. Very poorly coached. It screams at you. Too bad their rich owner can not see it.

The Steelers are averagely coached... if you haven’t noticed coaching in the nfl blows monkeyballs... bb cheats... pretty much everyone else is drastically flawed... Again had we not utterly collapsed down the stretch last year, the Ravens miss the playoffs for the fourth year in a row and the rumblings were that Harbaugh was gonna be out... there just aren’t good coaches in the nfl... it needs to be more like hockey, get what you can from them, then when their message sours, bring in a guy whose strengths are the previous coaches weaknesses and hope in that window where the previous coaches strengths are still present, and the new ones starts kicking in, you win...
 
We absolutely needed the Cheats to win this game just like we needed Seattle to beat the Rats 2 weeks ago. 2 wins against 2 SB contenders. The Rats have a stranglehold on the division and we have nothing. There is a very, very narrow path for us to get a wildcard but I'm still not convinced we can do what we need to do and get the help we need. I don't trust Tomlin and Fichtner. They are terrible calling games and if it weren't for a missed FG, Tomlin would have blown this game because he was living in his fears and, once again, went conservative way too early.
 
Ravens will give them their first loss too in a few weeks. They're unstoppable.

You had to know that was coming...Unbeatable until us Steelers fans need them to win, then they **** the bed. That entire chunk of the USA could break off, float out into the Atlantic and sink, and the rest of the USA would be a better place.
 
We play 3 teams with a winning record over the next 8 games. Rams, Bills, Rats. We need to run the table on the scrub teams and win 2 out of 3 of the games v the winning record teams and we have us a 10+ win season.
 
RG3 and Trace McSorely from Penn St.

As much as I despise the Rats, they made a smart decision in having those two back up Jackson. While the offense would be limited, those guys play the same as Jackson, to a much lesser degree obviously. But they wouldn't have to alter their playbook much.
 
Yet again Harbaugh is competitive vs the Pats, this case they beat their *****.
 
What a dilemma - the two most hated teams playing each other in a matchup that is pretty critical to our playoff chances. Only watched part of the game but at the start I KNEW I should be rooting for the Cheats so that we could pick up a game on the Rats. Couldn't do it though. I actually found out that I despise the Cheats more than the Rats. Maybe its the whole "Stairway to Seven" thing or maybe its the smugness of Cheats fans but whatever. I don't care, I'm glad they lost, even if it does hurt our chances for the playoffs. Unless we develop a more dynamic offense we weren't gonna do much anyway. "Chinatown" was on AMC so me and the wife switched channels at halftime and had a much more enjoyable evening watching Jack and Faye.
 
Thanks Cope, I knew about the RG3 but not the 3rd stringer.




Salute the nation

And I live in Balt so I was up to date on their training camp. McSorely killed it! He's a crowd favorite, and this is the first time in a while the Ravens are carrying 3 QBs on the roster. The last time was 2015 when they had more than 2 QBs, but had to do it out of necessity from injuries.
