Ravens

[Earl1972]

Fuck ya. Troy tried to grind his head into the ground and Logan Mankins started looking for some Steeler punks to smash. I love the emotion that Brady showed last night and the spike was classic. The steelers are always talking shit and trying to dominate.

I was surprised to see the Steelers get bullied like they did. Pats lines dominated. I knew it was on when Ward got the taste knocked out of his mouth.

The entire steelers d line was getting pushed back. Casey Hampton was getting rag dolled by Koppen. Light was owning Harrison and Mankins was mauling in the run game. Add in guys like 6'6 Rob Gronwkowski, blocking and then releasing into the flat and you've got trouble in steel city.

steelers were missing 2 starting o lineman

light was holding harrison all game

Brady was basically saying with that spike.....'this is my house and will always be my house'........I saw Troy dive his head in there trying to twist Brady's body back well after he crossed the goal line. The Patriot's O-line and D-line flat out dominated the Steelers.

At least the Ravens made their game with the Patriots competitive....

saw that too. He also took a shot at Welker after a play passed them by. Clark tried to duplicate his filthy dirty hit he put on Welker last year as well.

I don't blame em, when you get physically dominated as bad as they were, you get frustrated.

This new Patriots team is a throwback to the big, fast, beat your ass teams prior to 2004. They are going to be something else next year.

your team still hasn't beaten a big ben steeler team since 2006, when he was still rattled by the motor cycle accident so if brady is our bully on the block, big ben would be your teams bully

and if we're going to praise other teams qb's when they beat our bully, when was the last time your team beat peyton manning?

at least the steelers are always competitive with the colts

Patriots are missing #1 starting corner Leigh Bodden, pro bowl dlmen Ty Warren, Pro Bowl Olmen Steven Neal. They are also starting about 5 rookies and had to play at your house. Whats your point, everyone is missing important players.

Light was not holding Harrison. Thats just an excuse for guys to make when they don't do shit. Infact, a great case could be made for the bogus calls that went your way. See the Meriweather PI call. Timmons hitting Brady late. Troy P driving Bradys head into the ground -- etc. I dont make excuses so I wont go that route.

The Steelers are a top team in the AFC, but I'm sorry, they got smoked last night

I guess the refs are against you, in your own house... the house of the most respected owner in all of the NFL. Weird, they didn't call the late hit on Brady by Timmons, the clear personal foul by Troy P on both Brady and Welker...called a bullshit pi call against Meriweather and also failed to spot the ball in the correct spot on the chung tackle that was not a first down.

yeah i've heard it a million times when the refs don't make a call that benefits the steelers, the refs did a "great job"

any flag that helps the steelers, the refs wanted the steelers to win

harrison is held nonstop, you mention a couple random plays i'm not even aware of other than i think the chung tackle, is that the one where wallace caught a pass for a first down and than ran backwards behind the first down marker?

I've got no beef with any of the missed calls. It happens, and it all evens out. Like you, Pats fans can come up with a laundry list of things that went on all night that had a negative impact on their team. Infact, I think there were several holds that saved Ben from being sacked a sixth and seventh time last night.

You don't lose a game the way the Steelers did based on what you said. The Steelers scored pretty much all their points in garbage time when the game was already way out of hand. They just got beat, plain and simple.

Look, the steelers are a top notch team and could very well beat the Pats should they meet again. Infact, I'd rather play the jets than the Steelers should the Pats make the title game.

i think there were a number of plays that holding could have been called on that left side of the pats o line but that wouldnt have changed to game to be honest....

steelers receivers looked like shit for the most part, how many times does rapelisburger have to hit someone in the hands before they will make a catch?

that was just ridiculous the first 2 times they were in the red zone I think he hit probably 3 or 4 receivers in the hands in the end zone and they dropped the passes...

I'd say the same on no less than 3 occasions when Ben was going to be sacked a sixth and seventh time, and stripped.

Also, not a single pf call was made on Troy or Timmons. Timmons had a blatant late hit on Brady... I mean right in front of the ref.

Pats scored 39 points on the Steelers. Almost all of the steelers 26 came in garbage time. It wasn't even close.

I was surprised how the refs let Brady get knocked around.  That ass chewing he have was awesome.  Great to see a guy care that much and show it......hello laughing on the sideline as your teams gets pounded Tony Romo.....

i'm convinced brady likes beating the steelers more than anybody

when has he scolded his teammmates like that before while having a lead?  when has he spiked the ball after a td?  i remember an nfl films video of him walking off heinz field saying to the camera something like "we hate it here but god we love winning here"

he always brings his A game against them and always does something to rub it in the fans face at heinz field

i didn't see this, i was at the game and couldn't see the all the things they would show on replay

i recorded the game but i really don't feel like watching it for obvious reasons

It's respect, dude. There are two teams Brady respects... the Steelers and the Colts. The Steelers are pretty much the greatest franchise ever... of course he's going to get fired up. I love the fire. I'd take it as a compliment if I were you.

The reason he spiked the ball, is because Troy P was driving his head into the ground after he scored.

I know Brady hates the Jets!! That is a given.  I was shocked that there was a no call when Harrison, Foote or Timmons went low on Brady. I did enjoy seeing Woodley give Brady a "Love Tap". 

Why was Shawn Crable out on the field though? Just wondering Body because MICHIGAN fans have wondered if he ever changed his moronic style of play.

He does hate the Jets, because they are everything the Patriots are not. Loud, arrogent -- etc. It works for them, but there is no love lost between either team.

Ya, I was pretty surprised that there was no call on the late hit by Timmons, the knee dive by Harrison (dirty player), and the late hits by Troy P. That's why I find it comical when Steelers fan start bitching about the refs. It's like really, ha-ha.

Crable is finally healthy and able to play. He's had some pretty good pressures on the QB and has made some plays. Since this is his first year (he's been hurt), he's going to need a year to develop. He's an athletic freak though. I have seats right up front and he is a monster.

yeah we all know you raven fans have to count on the patriots to take care of the steelers, because god knows your team can't do it

We actually did beat you Oct. 3rd, 2010.(of course, you'll pull the no Ben playing card-but i expect that) And we've also beaten the Patriots once in the playoffs. When have the Steelers beat them this decade in the playoffs? The Steelers have proved THREE TIMES THREE TIMES THREE TIMES this decade that they can't beat the Patriots when it counts the most.

Granted, we beat them one time only but that's one more time than your precious Steelers.


Just like the Ravens could never beat the Patriots, we finally got over that hump. One day hopefully soon, we'll find a way to beat the Colts.

0 -2 against them in the playoffs this decade, your team is 1 - 0 so keep patting yourself on the back for that


yes i will pull the ben not playing card, like i said your team hasn't beaten him since 06

your team just lost to the falcons, my team beat them with dennis friggin dixon

Big showdown against the Steelers Dec. 5th on Sunday Night.


I'm wondering if the Ravens can beat the Steelers, given their incredible amount of luck. They have an atrocious offensive line yet Big Ben keeps plays alive and converts 3rd downs, something Flacco has a hard time doing. But I'll give the Steelers their just due....they capitalize on their opponents mistakes. The Buffalo game.....That drop by Steven Johnson in the endzone was just absolutely pathetic.

If you're a starting receiver in the NFL...you have to make that catch. It's ridiculous that the Steelers are 8-3. Just like Buffalo deserved to beat the Ravens a few weeks ago...the Steelers should've lost as well.....These kinds of breaks they're getting are becoming eerily reminiscent of their 2008 championship season. I hope I'm wrong.

watch the video, THE REF HAD THE YELLOW FLAG IN HAND BEFORE HE EVEN TOUCHED HIM

Harrison is having a great year. double digit sacks with 6 forced fumbles on the year. With Oher possibly missing the Steelers game, I'm worried how effectively Baltimore will be able to pick up the outside blitz.

Uh, as a Pitts fan I wouldn't be talking about anybody being "lucky..."  If God hadn't made that WR drop the ball, your boys would have lost.
