GAME THREAD - Week 4 - BAL/PIT

[RavenScallywag]

Inactives announced...Kruger, Cody, and Rice all ACTIVE

E.Jones
A.Jones
P.Miller
REDDING
Stallworth
Gooden
JOSH WILSON
Gaither

Note the two all caps names. Redding was expected to be out, Josh Wilson is the shocker.

[Dade]

Awesome Rice is active!!!

[baltimore_hokie]

Divens, McKinney, Kruger, Ngata, Gregg, Kruger, Cody...looks like we're expecting a run-oriented attack.

Josh Wilson inactive is a head scratcher to me, but it must mean that Webb is just about back to 100%.

[RavenScallywag]

The talk is that Cary Williams is a bit better on ST than Wilson...or at least can do more on ST than Wilson.

So basically, Cary Williams gets the spot over Wilson, and we go down a CB spot to have an extra DL or LB up.

[Sephy]

Guess they liked Hamlin over Wilson for a Mendenhall-heavy offense today.

[RavenScallywag]

Ray Lewis just needs to dial up a shoulder smash on Mendenhall like he did a couple years ago...

[Sephy]

Almost time for kickoff!

[Stumpy]

The mighty CHEESEBUGER should bring the pain to Mendenhall.

[Sephy]

Brown to the 29. Ravens deferred.

[Stumpy]

Charlie Batch is one hit away from retirement...

[Dade]

Nice coverage sack by Ngata!

[Sephy]

1st, give to Mendenhall up the middle for 1 or so. Ray and Suggs in there.
2nd and 8.5, Batch changes the play late for another 3 yard give to Mendenhall.
3rd and 5, Batch pressured initially, Kruger couldn't get off his man but pushed him back well, eventually Ngata slips through and sacks him!

Zibby takes the punt, gets only about 4 yards. Lots of pushing ans shoving already

[Sephy]

1st, from the 24, Willis starts, give to him, straight through left side for 3.
2nd and 7, play action and quick hit to McClain who makes a man miss and gets 10 yards or so and a first.

[Sephy]

1st, Willis finds a hole in the middle but his ankles get hit, goes for about 5.
2nd and 5, PA, Woodley was in the backfield quick but Joe fires to Mason to the sideline for 7.

[Sephy]

1st, now at the 49, complete to Mason for 9. Tackled very hard fairly late by Polamalu, no call. Fair.
2nd and 1, Willis straight through for 2.

[Sephy]

1st, from the Steelers 40, immediate throw to Mason on the screen look, but only gets 4.
2nd and 6, out to Mason for another 10. GREAT catch as it hit his hands, bobbled up, then catches it against his head as he went to ground.

[myfavoriteboxer]

Looks like we're going to throw it to Mason every pass attempt on this drive, in an attempt to keep him happy.

[RavensGrl]

I thought they signed Prince Miller for punt returns. He can't possibly be worse than Zibby.

[Sephy]

1st, wow, Polamalu is in the backfield immediately on the give to Willis for a big loss.

2nd and 16, Oher jumps. Implosion time.
2nd and 21, give to Willis who finds a seam for 10 back to the 28.
3rd and a much more manageable 11, dropped by Housh. Taylor was on him. Was short of a first anyway. Good coverage.

Cundiff from 46 - horribly wide right. Not even close.

[Dade]

Damn! The wind in Pitt is horrible. That kick never had a chance.

[baltimore_hokie]

Housh has some rock hands.

[Stumpy]

Are you F'en kidding me... TJ should have had that then Cundiff is going to push it...

[Sephy]

Steelers from the 36.
1st, Batch drops back, pocket collapsing, dumps to Mendenhall and met by Ray for 3-4 yards.
2nd and 6, lots of push from the OL that time, goes for 6 and the first.

[Mr.Boh]

what a pissburgh love fest from nantz and company

[Sephy]

1st, Batch drops back, no rush, incomplete for Ward as Carr broke it up. Flag for PI thrown. Weak as hell.

[OriAl]

That almost qualifies as a turnover. A great drive going, then the offense doesn't notice an unblocked Polamalu to lose six yards, then a false start, get 10 back, then miss a field goal by a mile. Bad omen.

Doesn't make the defense happy.

[Sephy]

1st, screen to Ward for 5.
2nd and 5, Mendenhall spins off for another 2 yards.
3rd and 3, deep and caught by Randle-El at the 1 yard line. Fabian was on him but somehow didn't break it up. Fuck.

[Mr.Boh]

bad throw by batch but great catch

[Sephy]

1st, Mendenhall for no gain.
2nd and goal, another give, and this time he's in.

Ravens waste chances, Pittsburgh doesn't. No excuse being down to this team right now.

[OriAl]

Steelers go for big play on third down and get it. Blitz picked up. Ball at the one.

Steelers go for big play on our half of the field, we tried a run and lost six yards.

Touchdown. Ten point turnaround thanks to our playcalling and Cundiff's inaccuracy. Sheesh. Things always go Pitt's way in these games.

[Mr.Boh]

wow according to nancy boy we are down 10... what a tool

[Dade]

This doesn't bode well for the rest of the game.

[Sephy]

The positives: Ravens moved the ball much better in general, but 2 big plays doomed the defense.

Parmele takes a deep kick out like a moron and only gets to the 17.

[OriAl]

Ravens can sometimes make mediocre QBs look good.

When will we find actual kick and punt returners?

[Lee Van Cleef]

Bit early to be self-destructing. Some really dumb things happening so far.

And why we gave away Clayton and picked up Housh... I've no clue.

[Sephy]

1st, PA, deep and Mason 1 on 1 with Clark CAUGHT BY MASON TO THE STEELERS 42!!

[Dade]

Nice big play by Joe and Mase!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Great Play action there.

[Lee Van Cleef]

So close Todd... so close.

[Sephy]

1st, Rice gets his first carry and is met right away for 2.
2nd and 8, deep and over the middle for Heap is DROPPED after he got hit. perfect throw as Clark popped him. Just perfect.
3rd and 8, caught by Boldin for 18 to the 23!

[Dade]

Heap you gotta make that catch. Nice grab by Boldin!

[OriAl]

Three great throws by Flacco.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Joe looking really good so far.

[Sephy]

First quarter ends. Super fast, geez.

Gotta score on this drive.

[OriAl]

Bit early to be self-destructing. Some really dumb things happening so far.

And why we gave away Clayton and picked up Housh... I've no clue.

New England game, for one. Not much love for Clayton after that.

Still early in season. Give Housh a chance - he may be receiver of the day one day.

[Dade]

Hope Joe can keep this up. He's looking really good so far. Spoke to soon, Boldin and Joe not on the same page there.

[Sephy]

1st, give to Willis straight through as Mason fakes through the backfield for 6-7 yards.
2nd and 4, some sort of mixup between Joe and Boldin has Joe just throwing to no one while Boldin was going to the endzone. Luckily, just falls incomplete.
3rd and 4, incomplete for Heap, but 2 flags went down. Illegal use of hands and a first down.

[OriAl]

We MUST score TD.

Oof - blown play.

Defensive penalty gives us a first down.

[Mr.Boh]

Hochali is my absolute fav ref

[Lee Van Cleef]

So close Todd... so close.


New England game, for one. Not much love for Clayton after that.

Still early in season. Give Housh a chance - he may be receiver of the day one day.

And how many drops has Housh had so far this season?

[Dade]

Ed don't scare me like that.

[Sephy]

1st down fresh here from the 12, end around to Boldin which was cut up the middle for 3.
2nd and 7, Willis gets a hole and breaks a tackle for a RAVENS TOUCHDOWN!!

[Dade]

Willis!!! Hell of a run.

[Stumpy]

TD Willis!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Nice running. Looks like the good Willis turned up today, I'm glad.

[Sephy]

Willis made 2 guys miss on 2 GREAT cuts after the right side of the line opened a big hole for the TD. Great execution.

We're knotted at 7.

[OriAl]

Touchdown, Willis! We needed that.

Now, we need a defensive turnover. Are you listening, guys?

[RavNMadMan]

Nance is so lame...surprised Phil Simms lowered himself to this level.

[Irish Raven]

Hochali is the man, scared us there though

Well done Willis, TD!

[UKRavenGordon]

Fucking A. Great drive!!!!

[Sephy]

Great kick forces a kneeldown.

LETS GO D!!

[Stumpy]

O looks great moving the ball

[OriAl]

And how many drops has Housh had so far this season?

A few. Clayton had more than that one, too. That one happened to be at a key time that almost every fan remembers (though the throw wasn't great, either - it was low.) We'll see if Housh redeems himself as the season goes on. He's a Raven, so I hope he does.

[Stealthbirds80]

Thinking the Steelers are having trouble matching up with our O. So far they are guessing wrong.

[OriAl]

O looks great moving the ball

Let's render the missed FG meaningless.

[Sephy]

1st, give to Mendenhall in a heavy look, loses a half yard. Couldn't stop everyone. Cody swallowed up the center.
2nd and 10.5, false start.
2nd and 15.5, someone blew coverage on Wallace badly - it was Fabian, and he goes for 20 over the middle. Fabian looks terrible today.

[Mr.Boh]

come on d...

[Sephy]

1st, from the 35, Mendenhall gets a big hole and goes for 10. Gregg's man just blew him up. gregg is done.

[RavNMadMan]

The defense needs to tackle a LOT better...right now

[Sephy]

1st, that time Rashard is wrapped up by Ngata going up the middle.
2nd and 8, PA, and Batch had time, misses a wide open Miller. Eventually Ngata got to him.
3rd and 8, Batch is SMASHED by Nakamura and Ray tips the pass incomplete. Nice!!

Zibby tattooed at rhe 20.

[Mr.Boh]

batch got knocked around that drive, hope it gets in his head a little.
Show us what you got O.

[Sephy]

The defense needs to tackle a LOT better...right now

Um, the tackling isn't the issue at all. That's been fine. The coverage and DL push (when Gregg is in) have been piss poor.

[Dade]

Good stop on 3rd down. Almost had the sack there. Now O put another good drive together.

[Stealthbirds80]

If we can get up by 10 and force them to throw it's ding ding lights out.

[Sephy]

1st, Willis tripped up for 2.
2nd and 8, deep for Boldin, incomplete, and flag comes down. His man wasn't looking back for the ball at all!

[Mr.Boh]

gotta love ed... fair as can be

[Irish Raven]

Yes, PI

Good call Ed

[Sephy]

1st down after the PI to the Steelers 48, PA, Flacco steps up, but doesn't feel the pressure, fumbles, and a Raven recovers. PHEW. Loss of 6.
2nd and 16, give to Rice for 1. Just a stupid call.
3rd and 15, screen is attempted and incomplete. Timmons was right on Flacco.

Fair catch at the 11.

[baltimore_hokie]

Wasn't Timmons' tackle on Flacco there more violent than Suggs' on Palmer?? Was it just me?

[Mr.Boh]

love how their d has "made a stand here" yet those words arent used for us so far.

[Mr.Boh]

keep knocking charlie around guys.

[Stumpy]

Wasn't Timmons' tackle on Flacco there more violent than Suggs' on Palmer?? Was it just me?

But it's the Steelers... blah!!!

[Stealthbirds80]

woah ngata!!!!!!!!!!!

[Lee Van Cleef]

Fall on the f**king ball. JESUS.

[Mr.Boh]

we could have run that in from there.... just get the ball

[Sephy]

1st, Mendenhall for 3.
2nd and 7, give to Mendenhall for a loss of 1. Flag down. Offensive holding, Ravens take it.
2nd and 14, give to Mendenhall and Ngata just blows him up at the 11. Wow.
3rd and 10, STRIP SACK BY KRUGER, ELLERBE TRIES TO PICK IT UP AND DOESNT TAKE IT IN AND STEELERS RECOVER OMG. But they replay the down anyway cause of offsetting penalties.

[Stealthbirds80]

AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that was a TD!!!!!!!!!!!!

[OriAl]

Ellerbee is an idiot! Fall on the ball!

Now they get another chance.

[RavNMadMan]

Nice non-recovery of a fumble there....

[Stumpy]

what about the God Damn HOLDING CALLS!!!!

[Sephy]

3rd and 10 again, Batch somehow miraculously avoids the sack but runs into a Raven after about 5 yards.

Zibby to the 37.

[Dade]

The Steelers are the luckiest team ever. Everything goes their way.

[myfavoriteboxer]

That can be a free lesson for Ellerbe for next time. Fall on that shit. It's not like our O can't run it in from the 1 yard line.

[Sephy]

Regardless, we're really starting to get to the QB now. Great play by Kruger.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Whatever happened afterward, great bit of play by Kruger.

[Sephy]

1st, give to Willis to a small hole, only 1.5 yards.
2nd and 8.5, play fake, deep drop, Joe steps up and doesn't see anything, dumps to Willis for 1, as he's hit right away.
3rd and 7.5, complete to Heap to the Steelers 44!

[Stumpy]

Hhhhheapppp!!!!

[Sephy]

I like how the Steelers can hit Flacco after the play with no call.

1st, screen to Rice, who makes Polamalu and Timmons miss for 9-10. NICE.
2nd and 1, sneak for the first.

[Sephy]

1st, complete to an easily open Boldin for 12 and out of bounds.

[Sephy]

2 minute warning hits, despite them going out of bounds.

[Mr.Boh]

how did the clock not stop when Q walked out of bounds?

[Dade]

Is it me or is this game going extremely fast. 2 minute warning and its only 2:05

[Stealthbirds80]

HAHAHAHA yall here the Steeler fans booing?

Our O looks great like an NFL offense finally.

Rice is their Kryptonite.

[Stealthbirds80]

Is it me or is this game going extremely fast. 2 minute warning and its only 2:05

I know this is unreal. Maybe the lack of flags for the first time in a while. Couldn't believe that was the 2 min warn.

[Sephy]

1st, dump to McGahee who runs backwards but gets only a yard.
2nd and 9, Flacco throws it away. Flag down. Defensive holding.

[Mr.Boh]

cinccy is catching the browns, that sucks

[Sephy]

Mason took a little dive there lol.
1st from the 16, Willis for 2.
2nd and 8, hits Boldin for about 7. TO Ravens.

[Stealthbirds80]

Great to see passes over the middle. It's been a long time coming.

[Stumpy]

I hope Nance dies like David Carradine from Kung Fu.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Terrible call on the defensive holding.

[Stealthbirds80]

cinccy is catching the browns, that sucks

I had the Browns winning that game in my survivor pool. Still sometime left.

[Dade]

Terrible call on the defensive holding.

After all the terrible calls we've, I'll take that one.

[Sephy]

3rd and 1-2 yards, 30s left, Willis gets it, Ravens take a TO. 25 seconds left.

[Stealthbirds80]

Damn commercials. Punch in boys, under no circumstances should this be a TO.

[Mr.Boh]

i hate tomlin... looks like a douche

[Mr.Boh]

i'll take the FG

[Sephy]

1st and goal, from the 5, Flacco throws it away. Holding on Oher. DAGGER.
1st and goal from the 15 now, overthrown for Housh and then Taylor smacks him in the head. Flag down. But then picked up. Of course not.
2nd and goal, 15 seconds, Flacco throws it away.
3rd and goal, 9 seconds, screen to Willis as he falls down, incomplete.

Cundiff from 33 - its good.

10-7 at halftime now.

[UKRavenGordon]

Lead at the half, I'll take it!

[Mr.Boh]

we need a second half opening drive statement.

[OriAl]

This is the Jets game all over again. Offense dominates time of possession, but can't score TDs. That's how teams lose games. Flacco has protected the ball well, as have the backs and receivers.

10-7, Ravens. Should be 17.

We do get the ball first in the second half.

[Stealthbirds80]

I hope that the flag gods don't change at the half.


On another note, it looks like the Steelers maybe overmatched by our offense with all of the weapons. I say that because in games against us in past years they have never had to honor our WR's like this before.

[Stealthbirds80]

Love the view of Webb practicing his catching. Omen???

[Sephy]

Parmele great run to the 40 huge hole, flags down though. Hold by Kruger near the beginning.

[Sephy]

1st from the 11 instead of the 40, dagger, no gain for Willis.
2nd and 10, dump to McClain for 2.
3rd and 8, complete to Heap for 10 and a first. Yes!

[Stumpy]

Hhheeeeaaaapppp!!!

[Sephy]

1st, Willis bounces out, gets nothing, no hole at all. Loss of a half yard. Like a little more PA on first down.
2nd and 10.5, Willis carries, fumble, Steelers recover.

Fuck off Willis, jesus christ.

[Sephy]

He's hurt, too. Tired of seeing him fumble in critical situations regardless.

[phatboy]

TO's gonna be our death this year

[Stealthbirds80]

Knew McGahee was good for one of those today, just wasn't sure when. I swear Willis...

[Stealthbirds80]

Flacco doing well against the zone defense today. Willis needs to take a walk.

[OriAl]

Bad Ravens show up for second half. Stupid penalty on return costs 33 yards, fumble gives ball away. This team has a habit of doing what it takes to lose against Steelers - fail to score TDs, miss FGs, give ball away.

McGahee hurt.

[myfavoriteboxer]

Our D absolutely needs to pick Batch. But I have my doubts about our ability to do that since we couldn't intercept passes from the juggernauts of the Sanchize, Palmer, and Seneca Wallace.

[Sephy]

1st frm the 27, end around to Wallace gets 1 at most.
2nd and 9, Mendenhall straight through for another 2.
3rd and 7, blitz comes and SACK BY SUGGS!!! And a horrible dance follows, lol.

[OriAl]

Defense picks up offense. Great stand.

[Sephy]

Reed attempt from 49 here in the open end. HITS THE POST!!!

[Stealthbirds80]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS with the MISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Stumpy]

thank you Mr. Reed.

[OriAl]

YES! Reed hits upright and it's no good! Whew!

Now let's get our good offense back.

[UKRavenGordon]

Atta boy sizzle!!

[Mr.Boh]

so basicly our D erased a fumble. Good job guys

[AirFlacco]

Ravens had a good rush on the FG kick.

[RavNMadMan]

Yes! the steeler's kicker gets bitten by that stupid stadium design

[Dade]

Nice the fumble means nothing now.

[Mr.Boh]

Go for it

[Dade]

Dammit Flacco you had open man there!

[Sephy]

1st down Ravens from the 39, quick pass to Boldin for 7. Rice is in.
2nd and 3, Rice gets 2. He does look a bit slow.
3rd and 1, big package comes in, PA, Joe rolls right and just has no one to throw to. Throws it away. Gotta run it there, come on.

Randle el muffs punt, but gets it.

[Sephy]

Dammit Flacco you had open man there!

Did he? I didn't see anyone.

[AirFlacco]

That was not on Joe.

TP rushed him fierce from the blind side.

Ran him out.

He had open receiver too but couldn't get ball off.

No blocking on that one.

[OriAl]

Why not have McClain and run him up the middle for a yard? Lousy call by Cameron - again.

[Dade]

Did he? I didn't see anyone.

I could be mistaken but there was a Raven (couldn't tell who it was) standing near the sideline where he threw it away.

I guess it was smarter not to force it and turn it over.

[OriAl]

We kick to the open end in fourth quarter. We need TDs.

[Sephy]

1st from the 14, McClain runs left with Mendenhall and stops him for 2.
2nd and 8, PA, time, dumps to Mendenhall for 5. Stopped by Jameel.
3rd and 3, Batch almost sacked, but JUST gets it to Wallace for 4.

[Sephy]

1st, complete to Ward who gets a generous spot for 10.

[AirFlacco]

They just said that was Batch's first completion in
over 1 hr 7 mins.

LOL

[Sephy]

Looks like they spotted him just short, 2nd and short, Mendenhall pushes for it.

[Sephy]

1st, big hole off tackle right for Mendenhall, but it comes back for holding.
1st and 20, bubble screen to Brown for a decent gain.
2nd and 14, Ravens jump, free play, deep and INC.
2nd and 9, PA and wayyy overthrown for Wallace. Zibby was closer. Batch got smacked by 2 Ravens too.
3rd and 9, incomplete and broken up by Fabian. Looking at the replay, Battle just couldn't get it.

Fair catch at the 10.

[Stealthbirds80]

Game starting to slow up now. No more TO's. Get back to the basics to put this game away.

[Dade]

Classic Steelers and Ravens game we got here. If we get a TD here the game could be over.

[Sephy]

1st, LeRon gets the ball for 2 now.
2nd and 8, LeRon running hard for 6.

Now McClain is hurt. WTF?

[Dade]

No not McClain too. Never thought I would say we're thin at RB, but thats what we are now.

[Stealthbirds80]

C'mon McClain. We can't have you down too.

[Sephy]

3rd and 2, Rice back in, Flacco lofts up the ball inexplicably and picked by Taylor.

WTF KIND OF CRAP WAS THAT

[Stumpy]

Flacco should be slapped for that.. he wasnt even being pressured

[Mr.Boh]

miss!!!!

[Sephy]

1st, from the 33, PA, almost intercepted by McClain! WAY too much time.
2nd, Mendenhall for 1 as they fake Wallace around.
3rd and 9, Kruger jumps. Fucking moron.
3rd and 4, deep and incomplete for Wallace. Webb had him locked down. Great coverage.

45 yards from Reed - wide LEFT!!!

[Stumpy]

thank you again Mr. Reed

[darb72]

Ok Offense, let's get a TD here and put the damned game away.

[Dade]

At least Reed keeps missing.

[Mr.Boh]

Come on O... Do your sh!t

[Stealthbirds80]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA everything's coming up purple.

[Stumpy]

We need to get back to the first half game plan

[Sephy]

Flacco should be slapped for that.. he wasnt even being pressured

Well he was, but not nearly enough to force that.

[OriAl]

We desperately need a TD.

[Sephy]

1st from the 35, Rice in, gets 3 on the handoff as Mason fakes.

4th quarter time.

Good thing Rice suited up today, otherwise we'd be looking at Parmele in single back.

[Mr.Boh]

We desperately need a TD.

A TD essentially ends this thing... come on guys

[OriAl]

Fourth quarter close game in Heinz Field has been bad for Ravens. Must change that today. Flacco said that himself.

[OriAl]

Rice was open. Bah. Offense is not playing winning football - again.

[Sephy]

2nd and 7, Rice trips, still gets 5 off tackle left.
3rd and 2, incomplete for Heap as Farrior knocks it away. Out pass to Rice gets it done - had enough space on Polamalu.

Randle-El goes OOB at the 14, flag down. Block in the back.

[RavNMadMan]

We got them backed up...time to put the hammer down on D.

[Mr.Boh]

advantage us on this field position... make something of it defense.

[Merlin]

So tell me why . . .

When you have a McClain that can convert on third and short do you have no backs in the backfield

Unbelievably poor play calling twice in a row on third and short

Just run it down their throat

I can live without a conversion, but doing it successfully will impose our will

[Sephy]

1st from the 7 now, Suggs jumps, doesn't matter as Mendenhall goes for 11.

[Sephy]

So tell me why . . .

When you have a McClain that can convert on third and short do you have no backs in the backfield

Unbelievably poor play calling twice in a row on third and short

Just run it down their throat

I can live without a conversion, but doing it successfully will impose our will

McClain is hurt.

[Sephy]

1st, Batch changes the play, gives to Mendenhall for 3.
2nd and 7, complete to Miller to the 40. Ellerbe blitzing blown up by Mendenhall.

[OriAl]

Ravens' offense is as weak as the Orioles' offense.

And now the Ravens' defense is letting down.

[Mr.Boh]

Ngata is having a game!

[Mr.Boh]

great now we have to stop them twice

[darb72]

Can we please stop jumping offsides D?

It would probably help if we weren't giving them free yards.

[Stumpy]

We are having stupid penalies

[Sephy]

1st, Mendenhall for 3 again.
2nd and 7, Mendenhall loses 4 as Ngata was right in the backfield!
3rd and 10.5, Nakamura jumps (WTF ARE YOU DOING), goes deep and is beautifully defended by Webb.
3rd and 5.5, Ravens take a TO, don't like that.

[Lee Van Cleef]

Stop biting on the hard count and watch the bloody ball already.

Nice coverage by Webb.

[Merlin]

McClain is hurt.


I thought I saw McClain play a few downs after the play where he looked hurt -- isn't that night?

[OriAl]

Batch isn't rattled - he's faking out defenders and causing offsides penalties. He hasn't thrown a pick, or fumbled.

[RavNMadMan]

We are having stupid penalies

You may want to save this message...I'm sure you'll be able to use it again

[Sephy]

Really great play by Webb to break it up.

3rd and 5.5, blitz picked up and Miller converts.

[OriAl]

And we let Batch convert. Great.

[OriAl]

Ravens in fourth quarter at Heinz Field...

Now we miss a chance at a pick. No forced turnovers yet this season.

[Irish Raven]

Well done Webb!

That's two long passes defended

[OriAl]

No defense on third down again.

[Mr.Boh]

we NEED a pick

[Sephy]

1st from the Ravens 42 now, deep and almost a TD. Webb is fucking brilliant back there. Broke that up last second.
2nd and 10, ball batted and ALMOST PICKED BY FABIAN. Didn't want to run into Ngata lol.
3rd, Ravens only rush 4, somehow Randle-El finds a space for 14. Ugh. HE ISNT EVEN GOOD STOP GIVING UP PLAYS TO HIM

[Stumpy]

Shit Shit Shit

[Lee Van Cleef]

Get some pressure already. You can't let Charlie freaking Batch sit back there and beat you.

[Sephy]

1st, Mendenhall gets the corner for 9.
2nd and 1, Mendenhall outside, gets 4 and a first.

[Stumpy]

How can there be no holding calls on them

[Sephy]

1st from the 14, no pressure AGAIN, complete to Redmon for about 5.
2nd and 4, Mendenhall hits the corner, TD Steelers.

Complete failure by the D. Penalties, undisciplined. Shit.

[Stumpy]

No FUCKIN way

[Mr.Boh]

our offense better get it together right fucking now

[RavensInBrazil]

WHAT THE HELL yo, are they doing this on purpose??

[OriAl]

Has our defense quit? Looks like it. Our offense didn't show up for entire second half, or in red zone at end of first half, our defense is MIA in fourth quarter.

TD, Steelers. Fourth quarter meltdown again.

[Sephy]

93 yard drive. Just insane.

[myfavoriteboxer]

This is kind of the scenario I wanted to see. Y'know, at some point Joe needs to demonstrate that he can come back and win a game like this.

[Lee Van Cleef]

We can't get pressure, and because we can't get pressure we can't force bad decisions and turnovers. It's really really beginning to grate on me now.

[Sephy]

Short kick fielded by Zibby to the 32.

[OriAl]

Super Bowl contender, my ass. Great defenses don't quit late. A 93 yard drive is inexcusable. And a real offense scores more than 10 points per game.

Let's see the offense show something now.

[Sephy]

1st, deep to Housh to the 46!

[Sephy]

1st, Boldin goes up, snatches it, reaches out and gets 11. Fucking love that man.

[Sephy]

1st, from the 35, Rice tripped up and loses 1.
2nd and 11, complete to Mason for 10.
3rd and very short, Flacco pushes across. Flags down. offside!

[Sephy]

Steeler is down.

[Sephy]

1st down from the 20, give to Rice for 2. Just doesn't look quick today.
2nd and 8, complete to Heap to the 8!!

[Mr.Boh]

uh flag please

[Sephy]

1st and goal, deep and overthrown for Boldin. Fade attempt but they got tangled.
2nd, Rice to the 2. So close.
3rd and goal from the 2, kncoked away by Gay going for Mason. No call.
4th and goal, Ravens have to waste a TO. Now you have to get the fucking TD.

I hate our clock management. Fucking hate it.

[Stumpy]

I think Mase is prego, Gay was on him so hard

[Sephy]

TO Steelers

[Mr.Boh]

we lost

[Sephy]

4th and goal from the 2, not the game but damn close, fade and incomplete for Boldin.

What the fuck is this.

FUCK YOU CAM CAMERON FUCK YOU

[Lee Van Cleef]

Really bad throw there Joe.

[Mr.Boh]

flacco does not seem to have it yet

[4G63]

Cam Cameron sucks!

[OriAl]

Why isn't Ngata blocking down here?

Wasted time out due to confusion.

The Rice run should have been on first down.

What a bunch of f**k-ups. Six plays inside five today, and can't get TD. Hell, why not bull-rush Flacco?

Announcer is right - Cam should use shotgun down here. He's lousy.

[Sephy]

flacco does not seem to have it yet

When you run that play, it isn't on him, that's the only read. Its Cameron's fault, not Joe. He's played great aside from that stupid INT.

[RavNMadMan]

The tale of this game...failure to score from inside the 5..among many, many other things.

[Sephy]

FUCK CAM CAMERON. Such bullshit.

[Mr.Boh]

Flacco is showing himself, once again, to be a good QB. But you need a great QB to win in the NFL.

[OriAl]

Ever heard of a TURNOVER, defense? We know our offense can't spell TD.

Just curious - why can't Rice run inside the two? Or roll Flacco out and let him run?

[Mr.Boh]

of course he could redeem himself here

[Sephy]

Zibby fair catch at the 49. Flag down. Ravens get 10 more on the holding!

[Sephy]

1:08 left.

40 yards to go.

1st, complete to Boldin for 9.
2nd and 1, complete to Boldin and OOB for 3.

[Sephy]

42 seconds left.

1st, from inside the 30, complete to Housh and OOB for 9.

[Sephy]

They give them the first.

1st, from the 18, PUMP TOUCHDOWN HOUSHMANZADFEH!!!!!!!!!!

[Stealthbirds80]

Omgggggggggggggggggggggggggg yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh tddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

[Lee Van Cleef]

Okay, now I'm on board with the Housh signing.

[Sephy]

HOUSH MAN FUCKING ZADEH AND JOE FLACCO


i am in fucking AWE!!!

[Sgt CouchPotato]

arrrrrggghhh!!!!! Mother fuck yeah!!!

[OriAl]

HOLY SH*T!!! Great job, Joe.

On the defense now.

That's why we got Housh.

[Merlin]

The Flacc is back

[Stumpy]

I just shit myself

[Sephy]

Flacco haters sit the fuck down.

Now we need to not F this up in 30 seconds.

[Dade]

Hell yeah!!!!

[Sephy]

Returner waits and takes it out only gets to the 14!
