THE 50-YARD LINE

Here we go, Steelers, here we go! It's rivalry week in Pittsburgh and that can only mean one thing. The Batlimorons come to Heinz Field to battle your Pittsburgh Steelers. These are your keys to today's game. 1)The Baltimorons have dropped 2 of their last 3 games. The Steelers finally got in the win column last week. Yes, Steelers fans could hold their heads high when the Steelers beat the Jets. But are the Steelers improving or were the Jets a bad 3-2 team? This week's game is a better test for the black-n-gold. Only problem is, I don't think the Steelers will get as psyched for this tilt as the Baltimorons. Look around, there aren't too many Steelers left from these classic battles. Harrison, Ward, Farrior, Hampton, they're all gone. The Batlimorons have lost Ray-Ray but still have Suggs and his new playmate, Dumervil. Ben better keep his head on a swivel and his running shoes handy. Score early, score often, score BIG! 2)In his last 3 games, Baltimoron QB Joe Flacco has a 55.2 completion rate while throwing 6 interceptions. He's been sacked 11 times in those 3 games. Sacko Flacco! 3)The Steelers have lost their last 3 regular season home games to the Batlimorons. It used to be, no one came into Pittsburgh and beat us in our house. Now, everyone is doing it. It's time to change. No more pool, no more shuffleboard, no more ping pong, no more somersaults, and certainly, no more home losses! Let's Go Steelers!!!!!!
