Ravens at Steelers.
It was once “can’t miss television”. Today it’s closer to a homogenous mess of nothingness. The rivalry used to be a bitter one with marquee veteran players, characterized by extreme physicality. Today, those players are largely gone and the league has done its best to suck the life out of the rivalry’s physical DNA.
Sunday’s matchup pits (see what I did there) the (2-2) Ravens against the (1-3) Steelers. The Steelers are coming off a dominant performance over the hapless kittens from southern Ohio while the Ravens are looking to shake off an embarrassing showing at The Bank that cost them first place in the AFC North.
