The Baltimore Ravens Face Their Arch Nemesis, The Pittsburgh Steelers In A Critical Week 9 Clash:

The Baltimore Ravens have to win this football game. There is no way around it. The Ravens have lost four straight games. They haven’t won since September, and they are coming out of their bye weeks. If the Ravens can’t get back on track in this game, rock bottom will be the cold result. The Steelers need this game badly too.

The Steelers are 4-3, just one game ahead of the Ravens. Pittsburgh’s deficits in their three losses were all by double digits. Pittsburgh has been taken out behind the wood shed three times this season, and it hasn’t been pretty (unless you’re a Ravens fan). Mike Tomlin’s team could have easily begun to run away with this division. However if the Ravens win, it is essentially a brand new season in the AFC North.

This game kind of feels like judgement day. You’re probably thinking, that I should tell you something that you don’t know. Every time these bitter foes face off, it’s important. When you add the turmoil both teams have faced this season, the stakes are even higher. With that in mind, let’s take a look at the three big things you need to know about this game.
