While the wind does not appear to be a huge issue in this game, unlike some of the others this week, rain seems likely in Baltimore.
The Steelers are the lone undefeated team remaining. Last week, they were the road underdogs and knocked off Tennessee. This week, they are in a similar scenario, getting points against the Ravens. The Pittsburgh offense has been overall average this season, though they do have weapons all over the field. They have four receivers with over 200 yards, while James Washington is just outside that threshold (185). James Conner has been efficient on the ground, averaging 4.7 yards per carry.
It’s the defense that steals the headlines for this team. They make the highlight plays, averaging the most sacks per game in the league (4.3). They also can win in the trenches, limiting opponents to just 3.4 yards per rush (No. 2 in NFL). Clearly, this game features strength vs. strength, with the Ravens rushing attack facing this tough run defense. The winner of this battle will likely take the game.
Speaking of the Ravens running game, they are expected to be without veteran running back Mark Ingram, after he failed to practice this week. While losing a starter is never good, J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards are more than capable of shouldering more of an offensive load. Lamar Jackson has played one true game against the Steelers, which was Week 5 of last season. He ran for 70 yards, but was sacked five times, and he threw three interceptions to one touchdown. Could the Steelers have the answer for the MVP?
