Week 1 Regular Season

My source(my brain) tells me not to touch this one. I like Roethlisberger to make more plays then Flacco, but this one is too tight to call. Might look a tthe over/uner on this one and just enjoy the game.

Bol this season

Mostly it has been about two nearly perfectly matched teams clubbing each other into some small number of mistakes that prove fateful. The similarities between the 2010 Steelers and Ravens were so plentiful as to be almost eerie.

• The Steelers averaged 23 points per game, the Ravens 22.

• The Steelers averaged 18 first downs per game, the Ravens 19.

• The Steelers averaged 32 minutes of possession time per game, the Ravens 31.

• The Steelers scored 41 touchdowns, four of them on returns, the Ravens 40 touchdowns, four of them on returns.

• The Steelers averaged 44 yards per punt, the Ravens 44.

• The Steelers averaged 6 yards per punt return, the Ravens 7.

• The Steelers averaged 24 yards per kickoff return, the Ravens 25.

• The Steelers wore black and gold, the Ravens black and gold and purple.

• Two of their three meetings last year were decided by a field goal as were five of the past eight.

A seven- or nine-point decision? Well, Baltimore saves those for the express purpose of losing playoff games at Heinz Field.

Lee Evans will have a nice game and they also got a rookie cb that will make an instant impact. Ray Rice will kill Pitt with his checkdown catches. I predict Rice will have about 7 catches for 77 yards. He will be Flacco's new best friend now that Heap is gone. 

Good luck today every one     and take a minute to remember all who were lost 10 years ago today on 9/11.
