Payback in Pittsburgh; Steelers Crush Ravens 38-7

 
Last season the Steelers were clearly dominated in two games by a Ravens team that won 13 games and was the #2 seed in the AFC. They were outhit, beat man to man, and did not make any big plays in either game that would have made it close. What a difference a year makes. […]
