Why Pittsburgh Should Look Out:

Due to such an esteemed history in such a short time of existence, the Baltimore Ravens are unarguably the biggest rival for the Steelers to face every single season. And when you take into account the fact that Pittsburgh may have to endure this team three times before even sniffing a Super Bowl appearance, the purple and black are not an easy win whatsoever.

Many haters claim that the Steelers got “lucky” in their first affair versus Baltimore back on November 1st. So if that is actually the case, who is to say that such luck will not run out in the second matchup currently scheduled for Thanksgiving Day? And if the good fortune does carry on, will it manage to stretch into the playoffs where the Ravens may be encountered a third time?

The point to be made here is that Pittsburgh can only escape Baltimore on so many occasions. The players and coaches know each other quite well, so it is never a simple game. With that said, if the Steelers do win again and as a result successfully sweep the Ravens in the regular-season slate, they cannot afford to let their guard down, as they still may not have heard the last of them.
