Baltimore at Pittsburgh(-4.5)

 

[iambrutus]

ouch, 4.5 favorites, with our horrific line, and minus willie parker

 

[BuckNutty]

Joe Flacco or not If the Steelers haven't straightened out their blitz pick up troubles this will be easy money for people wagering on the Ratbirds.

Well done, Rashard ...

Ravens aware of Steelers rookie's text message sent to Rice
By James Walker
ESPN.com

Pittsburgh Steelers rookie running back Rashard Mendenhall has been fairly subdued in front of the media this week, but a little trash-talking among friends made its way to division rival Baltimore.

Not a good thing.

The first-round pick from Illinois, whose first career start will come against the Ravens on "Monday Night Football," recently sent a text message to friend and Ravens rookie tailback Ray Rice saying he's going to have a big game against the NFL's top-ranked defense.

Obviously, Rice, who often praises the Ravens' defense as "scary," passed the text message along to his teammates, who are not taking Mendenhall's proclamation lightly.

Cont'd ...

These announcers are jocking Flacco like he's the second coming of Powlus.

Ben Roethlisburger looks like hell out there......and he has had time to throw.

What the hell is he doing out there?

Suzy Kolber reports that the Steelers were pissed off at halftime.

Better than being pissed on like they were in the first half.

Tom Green?

Santonio Holmes scores a great touchdown. LaMaar Woodley, not wanting to lose to Ohio State again after his years at scUM, responds with a fumble return for a TD.

 

[BUCKYLE]

20-20, under three to go.

 

[OCBucksFan]

Huh, at work we have a football pool and my "total score" tiebreaker for this game was 15...

LOL at Big Ben giving himself all of the credit in the post game interview.

If Ben plays like that the rest of the year, they;re in trouble.

I don;t expect him too, but he sucked horribly tonight. I really can;t believe he gave himself so much credit....what does going no huddle have to do with you taking about 5 sacks where you had significant time to find a receiver or throw the ball away?
