    I don't see that happening, IF (and thats a big if) they make it past Baltimore, they are gonna get stomped by the Eagles. I would love to see a Philly/Pitt SB. I hate both teams and I would love to see the moronic fans beat each other up haha.

    Baltimore's offense is horrendous, so if Pitt shows up to play on both sides of the ball, it's done. It won't be easy, though. Surprised you're not a Pitt fan seeing as where you live. Out of curiosity, who's your team?

    I'm a Cowboys fan. I honestly have no clue what started my hatred towards the Steelers, but its been there since back in the late 80's/early 90's. There has only been one Steeler in my life that I actually liked (Greg Lloyd). I have been denied entrance to bars because I was wearing a Cowboys hat and I have had other friends denied entrance for wearing Eagles or Giants clothing.

    That's too bad. Pretty juvenile to deny access to a bar because of sports clothing.

    Yeah, the bars around here just keep getting worse. I have seen guys denied into a certain bar for wearing cowboy boots, and most bars won't let you in if you are wearing a wife-beater for a shirt but they allow any girl wearing a bikini top and a pair of underwear. Hell, some of the bars are starting to deny guys who are wearing t-shirts with cutoff sleeves.

    HUGE Steelers fan here, and I want to voice my concern of the Ravens game. I think that these two teams are very evenly matched, and I'm just not sure that the steelers will beat them three times. They CAN, but I'm worried that they might not. The only thing that makes me feel OK about this game is that the steelers are as healthy as they have been all year. Man, I hate to get ahead of myself, but imagine if the steelers were the first tem to win six. GO STEELERS.

    Steelers vrs. Ravens should be some fun.

    If Steelers expect to win they need to do somethings to get there.

    Big Ben cannot afford to hold the ball in the pocket for the 52 seconds he does.. otherwise the Ravens line is gonna knock him all over. Philly did this in like week 4 or something like that.. Big Ben didn't know what hit him.

    Big Ben needs to be aware of Safety Ed Reed at all times.. if he makes a mistake.. Reed will likely be there to help end Pitts. fun.

    Steeler fans will have to be LOUD and OBNOXIOUS ALL GAME.. they need to upset Flacco and throw off his rhythm. Do this and I think they can win.

    The fact that this game is in Pitts. is what will give the Steelers an advantage.

    But with all this being said.. I'll take the Ravens. I don't think Ben can get rid of the ball fast enough. And I don't think the Steelers running game is good enough to beat the Ravens D in this the 3rd time they've met this season.

    And anyway.. I'm a NFC guy. AFC is like watching 60 minutes for me.

    Flacco has been decent going into this last stretch, but you're right, he can be shaken up. He is a rookie after all. I agree also that Ben could be the deciding factor. Everyone is pretty healthy at this point, but he is not, nor have I ever really thought the world of him as a QB. He's big and hard to take down, but if he hangs back long enough he's going to get railed. On the other side of the ball, Baltimore's new offensive coordinator is showing his ties with the Dolphins in their offense this year. Like I said, it's a mediocre offense, so if Pitt can play both sides of the ball, it's probably over.

    I totally agree that Ben will be the decidng factor. I'm not really worried about Reed( Though he is an animal), I think that Ben is pretty safe with the ball, but he ABSOLUTELY holds on to it too long and the Ravens are going to knock the hell out of him. I think, as long as the game doesn't get out of hand, the Steelers need to run, run, run. I don't think they will run well, but they don't need to let the BAL front eat Ben, and they just need to let the defense keep Flacco and Co. at bay. I don't know, as unpredictable as this NFL season has been, maybe Ben will throw for 280 yards and a couple of TD's LOL. I really have a bad feeling that the steelers are going to strut in there all cocky since they beat them twice, and then end up getting their asses handed to them.

    At first I was worried about the steelers having to beat a team 3x ina season, but as time goes on here, I really think the steelers will win. Flacco will wet the bed & collapse. The Steelers have been here before and know how to get it done.

    It's getting like that everywhere. I've been denied or seen denied for wearing a "dressy" sleeveless shirt while at the BEACH. A girl with flip flops standing next to a girl with sandals. One gets in one don't. A dressed up guy with Lugz "boots" that wasn't allowed in.

    That's the biggest point. Steelers have been here numerous times, and have that experience to lean on. They know what it takes to get it done. I only hope that their defense gets it together and really puts the curtain up and holds the Buzzards to short yardage and create turnovers. They should be able to apply that knowledge & persevere. I hope like heck they make it to the Superbowl. I told my wife, if they did, I'll shave my head clean and decorate in black and gold like a helmet. Booyah, GO STEEL CURTAIN II!
