Because of their failures down the stretch, the Pittsburgh Steelers will now travel to Baltimore to play the Ravens in the first round of the playoffs. That’s not exactly an ideal matchup, especially because the Ravens just crushed the Steelers a few weeks ago. These two teams are very familiar with each other, which might make some people believe the Steelers will have an easier job preparing for this game. But Mike Tomlin stated that it’s actually the opposite.
“I just think the more familiar you are, the more significant the strategic component is,” Tomlin said Monday via the team’s YouTube channel.
