Key to a W will be Alex Collins and Joe Flacco. Not a big secret but our offense needs to continue where they left off against the Lions.

Point being your eyes won't tell you a thing if you don't actually watch games.
But you do get some information by watching every single Ravens Steelers game.
You get information watching game day highlights.
I don't need to watch every fucking snap Ben has ever taken to formulate an opinion on weather or not he is dangerous under pressure.
That is my point.

The problem of watching HIGHlights is that they'll only show you the HIGH moments. And, no, you don't need to watch every single snap, but even against the Ravens, Ben wasn't a problem and looked decently flustered against the Ravens pass rush, which is saying something with how weak the pass rush has been.

We're, what, 12 games in now? If you only watched the Ravens-Steelers game and drew your conclusion on Ben's play based on that and highlights, you'd be going down the wrong road.

By the way, PFF HAS watched every single game and every single snap.

by its very definition this does not give you balanced information - it shows you the best bits - it doesnt show you the misses or the turnover worthy throws or the bad reads or the sacks he could have avoided...

im telling you from watching big ben this year that he has not been as good as in previous years - leveon bell is the offensive powerhouse of that team and antonio brown makes ben look better - ben is not a bad qb but he's not what he was 2 years ago

I don't know what it is, but for the very first time, I'm feeling extremely confident that the Ravens can and will go into Heinz Field and get that "W" over the squeelers on PRIME TIME to advance to 8-5.

Maybe it is because in their last 5 trips to Heinz Field....the Ravens are 4-1. The 1 being that loss last season. WOW!!

So tonight.....they avoid getting swept by the squeelers and get the win and the rest of the NFL learns that the RAVENS are for real!

I’ve watched all of the Steelers games that I have been able to(and highlights) and think all you say here is pretty much true. What I think you fail to mention though is that while Ben hasn’t played well he’s shown he still has it when the game is on the line and has proven capable of leading game winning drives.

id put more of those game winning situations on antonio brown going to another level but tomatoes tomatoes (ben's still gotta throw him the ball)
