Coming off a loss in a physical interconference matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles on the road, the AFC North-leading Steelers’ will have a second-straight away game on a short week when they travel to Charm City to face the Ravens on Saturday evening with a chance to all but sew up the division crown in Week 16. Pittsburgh has won eight of the last nine matchups in this storied rivalry including each of the last four and with a win, would pull off a regular-season sweep for the second year in a row.
In the first meeting of the season between these two teams saw the Steelers forced three tide-turning turnovers and bottled up the Ravens running game compared to their usually dominant standard, yielding 124 yards on the ground to a team that averages 178.
