Steelers Week
November 1, 2007
Posted by on This is Steelers week. A great week to start my blog. I’m sure win or lose I’ll have a lot to talk about. The game is Monday night and there is still much up in the air for the Ravens. They’re going to be getting back some key players for this big game, but some other players like Samari Rolle, Chris McAlister and Todd Heap may not play. Samari Rolle is in particular a big surprise because he had recovered from an illness that forced him to miss three games earlier in the year, but it appears that the illness has caused him problems again because he has missed practices again this week.
The picture above showing Roethlisberger on the ground was just one of many of the same type of pictures to pick from last year. The Ravens hounded and pounded him in both games last year leaving him shell shocked and gunshy even when pressure wasn’t around him. With Trevor Pryce rested, healthy and expected to start this week hopefully the Ravens will be able to cranck up the pass rush that has been nullified most of the year so far. It will be needed especially if Rolle and McAlister don’t play.
