I would LOVE to see the Ravens choke this game away, but the Steelers are their usual mediocre selves. They're not built for big comebacks.
At one point this season, the Steelers were playing good defense. They actually played a great game against this Ravens team with Zay Flowers the first time, but they didn't even show up tonight.
Postseason trend for the Steelers, who haven't given up fewer than 31 points in their past five postseason games entering today. And who knows how many points the Ravens feel like scoring today.
I'm tired of all this talk of the Steelers fighting back. The Ravens dominated the first half and were in control every moment of this game. Scoring a couple times when they were down 21 doesn't mean much. When they did have the opportunity to make it a game, they took a penalty, a sack, and threw into triple coverage on fourth down. I'm not at all impressed.
Herbstreit, who I really like, exposed himself to some criticism when he said the Ravens’ next opponent would be Houston. Highly unlikely. Michaels had to correct him.
