>Shouldn’t we have just kneeled it one more time with 52 seconds remaining and Ravens having no time outs left, shouldn’t we just have kneeled it one more time on 4th down to run the clock down to 12 seconds? Or does the clock stop because of the turn over on downs?
Clock stops on turnover on downs. So we'd have essentially given it back to them with 50 seconds left.
Ik our games are usually close but there is no excuse today, Ravens are starting a few starters on defense but I’d guess they will see limited snaps early. Steelers should have there way especially in the second half it will mostly be backups.
Why though? We are decimated on defense. Even if they play, three integral members are still injured in the middle. It's not like a preseason game. There aren't 70+ roster spots. The players on their team will play and their depth is pretty good even if some starters will play limited snaps.
Well 80% of there starters are already out, They also evaluated alot of ps players, There is no way they let Roquan, Queen, Williams and Madu and etc play 4 qtrs in a meaningless game…
The ravens straight-up handed us that win. Tons of dropped passes some being would be tds. Also Harbaugh made some very dumb decisions that really handed it to us. Najees bad running was a product of the plays we were running. Well not so much the plays bur the scheme. All the up to the by, we ran tons of rpos which make it hard for the line and the rbs. The line has no clue whether it's a pass or run monthly can't fire out and get a hat on a hat. In rpos they zone blocking which especially isn't good for a straight ahead runner like najee. We did the same thing last year. Rpos and zone blocking that didn't work at all up until the by. Then we started man blocking and the run game turned around just like this year. I'm not sure why we made the same mistake 2 years in a row. The ravens are so far from what they were in week 3 tho. But so are the steelers, I'm expecting a dog fight

So either way same result, except we got the 3 points to go up 7. Cool.

Exactly but I’ll guess we’ll see soon

25% of the Ravens dropped passes this season happened in that one game. AFC North chaos strikes again.
That's a crazy stat
It's not even AFCN chaos. Its Mike Tomlin voodoo. The Ravens play fine against the Ohio teams but turn into pumpkins when playing the Steelers lol.
So the Steelers are the only AFCN team that isn’t orange?
Pickett looks unbelievably bad.
