OUR PREDICTION: Ben Roethlisberger continues to have issues on the road compared to at home but I don’t see how Joe Flacco and Co. keep up this afternoon. Flacco has been highly ineffective after missing all of preseason recovering from a back injury and with the amount of problems the team has along its offensive line, I don’t see how the Ravens move the ball today. Baltimore’s defense is much better than what it showed a week ago in London but the bottom line is that it still got lit up by Blake Bortles and had no time to decompress after flying cross-country Despite the fact that the Steelers are on the road and this is a rivalry game, I don’t like much about the Ravens’ chances this afternoon.
