Week 2 in the NFL season and we have another Thursday Night football game with a AFC rivalry. The Pittsburgh Steelers and the Baltimore Ravens meet up in Baltimore to battle it out. The Ravens lost their first game at home last weekend to the Cincinnati Bengals. Another loss in the division would put the Ravens in a tough spot to start out the year.
The Baltimore Ravens get to put some of the noise from Ray Rice behind them and make some noise on the field instead. The team will look to hand the ball over to Justin Forsett and Bernard Pierce to take over the running game. They will need to step things up for the offense and take a load off of the shoulders of Joe Flacco.
The Pittsburgh Steelers snuck through the first game of the regular season by beating the Cleveland Browns and would love to start out the season 2-0 by knocking out the Baltimore Ravens.
Prediction:
The Baltimore Ravens need this game more than the Steelers at this point, but they have the massive distraction of Ray Rice at this moment. How will the team react on the field?
The Steelers are looking to take advantage of the team. I expect Ben Roethlisberger and Antonio Brown to have a great game on the field. They will need to step up on the road and carry the team.
I don’t think the Ravens will be able to get the running game going and will have their struggles. Joe Flacco will need to carry the offense on his back tonight.
I expect the Steelers to steal this one on the road.
Steelers 17 – Ravens 13
