Steelers-Ravens Weekend

The Ravens and Steelers will do battle again on Sunday in one of the best rivalries in the NFL.  For Ravens fans I say forget the week 1 beatdown of Pittsburgh.  Equate that game to the Ravens effort against the Jags a few weeks ago.  All teams in the NFL have a bad day.  For Pittsburgh that was the opener at M&T.  The Ravens can point with disgust to the Jags loss and the 1st half against the Cards.

All that being said I think the Steelers exact some revenge at Heinz on Sunday Night.  The Ravens are really struggling on offense right now and they can't afford to get behind like they did against the Cards.  However the Ravens can still win the game.  Some Ray Rice runs will soften up the passing game and could lead to some open receivers down field.  The Steelers secondary is suspect right now.  The Steelers still win this one but I believe it could be a close one.

Picks:

#2 Alabama over #1 LSU
Steelers over the Ravens (Sun 7:50p on WSBA)
Eagles over the Bears (Mon 7:30 on 96.1 WSOX)
9ers over the Redskins
Buffalo over NY Jets

Last week 3-3    Overall 33-17
