Baltimore (+3) at Pittsburgh (9-30-18)

[oldunclemark]

8:20 EST  with 'old faithfuls' Al Michaels, Cris Collinsworth and Michelle Tafoya on NBC

Low 60s and dry at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh  over-under at 51

 

Battle of the big  QBs as 'Slow Joe' Flacco (82 of 129, 889 yards, 6 TDs, 2 INTs) tries to light up the shaky Pitt defense. The Ravens only have 226 yards rushing in 3 games.

Flacco will be throwing 40 times...and he'd throw on every down if they let him.

This will be Joe Flacco's  20th game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 

'Big Ben' Rothlisberger (92 of 139, 1,140 yards 7 TDs, 4 INTs) led the NFL in passing yards gained after  three games so you know what you're getting here.

WR Antonio Brown (24 catches, 270 yards) will catch 10 passes and then spend next week whining about how they're not throwing him the ball enough.

RB James Conner, who wont be at home watching because he's only been offered $14 million dollars has caught 15 passes on top of 54 carries for 213 yards and 3 TDs.

Pittsburgh has drawn 37 penalties for 361 yards and when you have 100 more yards in penalties than Jacksonville and Oakland, you're doing something. Its not good,. But you're doing something,

 

Made-for-TV here.  Baltimore averages 32 points a game and nobody rolls up big passing numbers like Ben. Who wins? Who cares? . Take the over....These teams light up the scoreboard
