    They aren't bad up front, but they aren't close to good enough to make that kind of game plan work. I wouldn't be shocked to see them come out throwing and hope Vick can actually hit a few early.

    I keep hearing about how bad the Ravens are because they're 0-3 and seem to have all these problems, people missing, etc. No one seems to mention that they've lost three games by a total of 14 points -- two of them on the road -- to three teams that look like they might be pretty good, and all of them have essentially been decided in the fourth quarter.
    I get that you are what your record is, and that the Ravens have some flaws, but surely they can come into Pittsburgh and kick the ever-living shit out of a banged-up team quarterbacked by a guy who, the last time we saw him, was completing 52.9 percent of his passes because he was there to cash a paycheck and not actually play a game, right?
    If nothing else, they seem primed for a "due theory" resurgence. It's damn difficult for all but the very worst teams in the NFL to lose more than three in a row (and hard for all but the very best to win more than about three in a row).
     
  3. Odds Antonio Brown's receptions streak comes to a screeching halt, tonight?
    Strong.

    If the Ravens can't beat Vick they should move back to Cleveland

    Ravens dominating up front on the second drive of the game. The Steelers can't seem to even slow them down.

    Disgraceful attempt at a tackle by Moats on the touchdown. Read the play perfectly and was in position to blow it up for a loss, but failed to even turn the runner back inside. That was just one of many examples of lousy tackling on that drive. Ravens are going to win easily if that drive was any indication.

    Vick is the worst quarterback in the NFL. Tomlin needs to be called out for signing this washed-up dog killer to back up an injury-prone star.

    No way. He'll have 12 catches for 23 yards.

    Welp, Brown should have gotten 37 yards right there....

    Vick has no business being in this league.

    Spoken like a man who hasn't watched the Texans recently. Or the Browns at any point in the last 12 years.

    Johnny Manziel is Johnny Fucking Unitas compared to Vick.

    Yup. That wasn't an easy catch, but it is one he usually makes and they end up getting nothing out of a great opportunity. Brown needs to come through on plays like that if the Steelers are going to win games without Roethlisberger.

    Vick is slow to react to pressure, but otherwise, he hasn't played that badly so far in this game. He's not going to be great, but he gave his team a chance there and it was the stud receiver who failed to come through.
