3. Get to Flacco
The Ravens offense last week was punched in the face by the Jaguars defense, and quarterback Joe Flacco was on the receiving end of a lot of pressure by the Jags D.
Flacco was pulled from the game after going 8-for-18 for 28 yards with two picks and two sacks. Those Ryan Leaf like numbers ended up having him ride the bench to see Ryan Mallet, who once beat the Steelers two years ago, go 6-for-9 in 36 yards with a TD in garbage time.
The Steelers over the years have had some very good games against Flacco, and if they want to walk out of Baltimore with a win, putting pressure on him and forcing some turnovers would be a great way to reach that goal.
Running blitzes and keeping Flacco in the pocket always seems to be a key for the Steelers to have success against the Ravens QB. If they can do that, they have a great shot to give them a chance to get a ‘W’.

I’m watching this steeler team in second half and all I see once again are penalties and more penalties! Steelers have this mo to move into red zone and then back up. By the way, saying the penalties are not on Tomlin is like saying a applied child’s parents are not at fault for their spoiled child. Tea-La-La….Teflon tomlin!

I will rip this team all year whether they are winning or losing as long as they are not performing up to expectations and so far this year, they have not!

Roethlisberger sucks! For real for real! Can’t wait until he’s no longer our quarterback. Time for something new! The way he overthrew Bryant in 3rd and three on that deep ball is completely asinine and INEXCUSABLE! Hey big ass, go and retire already!
