4)Kyle Boller - who knows what he will do. Wildcard.
...Balt offense is very much unknown. J.Lewis is solid, Heap is solid, O line solid.
I think this game is too close to call and would recommend avoiding it.
G/L either way!

Thanks Big 12 and points are noted, but I wanted to highlight Boller. A rookie QB, with only a year in college as a starter, and a month in a system, on the road against not only one of the better teams in the league, but one of the toughest places to play...... SPELLS DISASTER! Lewis hasn't been that impressive and the Steelers are better against the run, Vulnerable against the pass, which the Ravens cannot take advantage of with rookie Boller and ... good greif, I cannot name a reciever worth crap!!!! I don't know them that well, but well enough to know there offense will be no match for the Pitt Defense, even without Porter. Granted, that guy Todd Heap is pretty damn good player, but thats it. Just not impressed.
The Ravens do have R.Lewis, but the rest of the Defense, especially a lousy 3-4 scheme designed to attack (which they were one of the worst teams in the league rushing the passer) combined with a secondary in flux also spells DISASTER!! McAllister is decent and Ed Reed should be pretty good, but the rest will not stop Maddox, Burress and Ward. Combine that with the shifty Amos Z at runningback, I think this will be a big mismatch. I love Lewis and Bouleware, but they can't do it all and will be overmatched here.
Sorry Big 12, but the Steelers will roll and should win by atleast 2 Tds. I'm thinking 31-10.
Sorry I posted NFL stuff here, just wanted Big 12 to catch the write-up!!
