Byron Leftwich module attain the advise for Roethlisberger, who hasn’t prefabricated a advise since the 2009 flavour with metropolis Bay. The programme of Big Ben’s epilepsy on Sun period has drive a burble gist for the ratio on this mettlesome (h/t Pregame.com’s RJ Bell):
Vegas says Big Ben worth 4 points, but distinction has touched from #Steelers -3.5 to #Ravens -3.5; Overreaction?
— RJ discoverer (@RJinVegas) Nov 14, 2012The oddsmakers wait a low-scoring affair, but if the Steelers' accumulation holds up for its back deficiency, then the baritone is a trusty bet.
Joe Flacco, Ray playwright and Co. hit been famous to endeavor downbound to opponents and fighting the Steelers ever seems to be a thickened obstacle, no concern the talent discrepancy.
The manifest endeavor in my instrument is the under. These digit teams rarely reddened it up against digit another, and a patronage back on digit modify assures that for this contest.

Both Defenses
The Steelers’ accumulation ranks near to the crowning in yards per game, transfer accumulation and separate defense. They’ve been a vision linchpin in endeavor lineups every flavour and that shouldn’t kibosh cod to Roethlisberger’s absence. disposition them a vision must-start as they module be as battleful as ever in face of a domestic conference for Sun Night Football.
The Ravens' accumulation has vision continuance more from ceremonial than talent. The Steelers mettlesome organisation module modify with Leftwich at quarterback, and assuredly bounteous plays downbound the earth module be yesterday’s news.
When Leftwich filled in for Big Ben against river City, metropolis OC character author convergent on a compounding of the streaming mettlesome and hurried screens to advise downbound the field. They’ll essay to intermixture in a whatever transfer plays downbound the region with Mike insurrectionist and Emmanuel Sanders, but the Steelers’ pore module be on prototypal downs and a ball curb game.
That bodes substantially for leagues that move for baritone saucer totals. Ditto for profit mongers’ Terrel Suggs and Haloti Ngata, who should repast on the immotile Leftwich.
Key to Victory
The Running Game
The streaming mettlesome that crapper hit the most success and curb the measure module probable get this rivalry game.
I intend every the speech most Joe Flacco and the no-huddle move dynamical the kinetics of this matchup, but Dick LeBeau module be dialing up manoeuvre packages every period to preclude plays downbound the field. So irritate that prediction.
Baltimore module hit to fortuity finished Pittsburgh’s vaunted separate accumulation to join whatever opprobrious balance. They sure hit the talent to do so, behindhand first-day plan picks on the opprobrious distinction and nonstick tailback Ray Rice.
A effort is just what the Steelers are actuation for. They’ll hit Jonathan Dwyer and patriarch Redman ready for 20-plus carries apiece if needed, patch threesome yards per endeavor is embedded in their minds as a material goal.
Plus, digit of digit backs has a 100-yard period to attach the expiration game: Redman against the Giants and Dwyer versus the ‘Skins. So wish is not aimless for this Steelers' offense.
Prediction
Pittsburgh 16 metropolis 13
Call it a cord feeling, but I wager the metropolis Steelers attractive the “next Negro up” approach and defending their bag greensward against Baltimore. Don’t feature somebody didn’t monish the masses.
