Monday Night Football Prediction – Ravens vs. Steelers

Posted by Lori

September 27, 2008

This Monday night should bring a great defensive battle when the Baltimore Ravens visit Heinz field to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Ravens top-ranked defense will try to replicate what the Eagles did to the Steelers last week when they sacked Ben Roethlisberger 8 times. Raven’s rookie quarterback Joe Flacco hasn’t throw a touchdown pass yet this season, but he’s managing the games well in the team’s two victories.

The Steelers will be without running back Willie Parker, the AFC’s second-leading rusher, for this Monday night match-up. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger has been pretty beat up himself with a sore shoulder and a right hand injury, but his big-game experience may give the Steelers the upper hand.

Our gang is split down the middle this week. David (2-2) and Spencer (3-1) are calling it a Steelers victory, but Chase (3-1) and I (2-2) are predicting the Ravens will pull this one out.

Who do you think will win this defensive contest? Take our quick poll and let us know.
