...shame to see the effort wasted but with the rusty Leftwich at the helm, we needed to be the better team in one of the other two phases to win.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust & sweat & blood... -
They did all but one key thing... score points. Tonight they needed to. -
LeBeau put together a good plan.... but the reality is Flacco took very few chances downfield, which is their normal mode of scoring.Comment

Best game of the year by the defense.Comment

Defense stepped up. Played aggressive and blitzed like they should every game. Great play by the DBs. LB performance was a mixed bag. One of the better games by Woodley this season. Timmons continues to be the best LB by far! Harrison continues to show he is a shadow of his former self. Foote showed he can't cover anyone.
I also thought Heyward was a bright spot last."My team, may they always be right, but right or wrong...MY TEAM!"Comment

This is turning into the same old story....Great defense...horrible offense....Its been like that for years.....Comment

Lewis is Digest Player of Week
Bob Labriola
Steelers Digest
When playing the Ravens, it’s equally important to control the running of Ray Rice as well as the passing of Joe Flacco. Keenan Lewis had a hand in doing both.
Lewis led the team with 10 tackles, including one for loss, and broke up two passes to key a defensive effort in which the Ravens punted eight of the 11 times they had the ball.
Lewis is the Steelers Digest Player of the Week.
Also considered were: LaMarr Woodley, who had five tackles, one sack and two hits on the quarterback; James Harrison, who had eight tackles, including one for loss, and a sack; and Ike Taylor, who held Torrey Smith to one catch for 7 yards.
As a whole, the Steelers defense deserves kudos for their performance over the course of the game’s 60 minutes. In 11 offensive possessions that weren’t kneel-downs, the Ravens were forced to punt eight times and missed a field goal on a ninth. Rice managed only 40 yards on 20 carries, and the Ravens finished with 200 net yards of offense.
