Ravens and Steelers is always big. This game is no different:
When the Baltimore Ravens play the Pittsburgh Steelers it is always a game that sticks with you. Steelers fans will never forget when Joe Flacco went 92 yards against them to win in 2011, as much as they want to. The Ravens will probably never get over their Christmas being ruined in the 2016 season by Antonio Brown. These games are some of the most memorable battles on the football field you’ll ever see.
The Ravens rivalry with the Steelers is intense. For the fifth straight year in the NFL, NBC has the night game hosted by Pittsburgh. While it would be nice for the Ravens faithful to have one of these in Baltimore for a change of pace, there isn’t a bigger stage in the National Football League. The winner of this game will send a statement that will be heard through the rest of the football world. This one is personal. This one is promised to be an emotional roller coaster all the way until the finish.
We know all about the rivalry. Now it’s time to look at this particular game and ask: What is on the line? This is a look at what a win would mean for the Ravens, and how it would impact the season moving forward. No matter how you look at it, this game is big.
