You know I kinda thought about that. BAL was just assuming that we would run it up the gut 3 straight times and I wondered what would have happened if Heath would have released straight down the field and Batch stood up and just tossed it to him.

But Haley/Tomlin didnt see it that way. We won the game and all is good, but I thought the endzone was ripe for the taking--at least one shot. Oh well. Great win.

I love my Steelers but it was an ugly and lucky win. Batch still is no Ben and should have easily had Wallace in the endzone earlier in the game. The Defense came up big today. Batch got lucky and I'm glad he did. He took some big hits today as well. Hope to see Ben and Woodley back next week.

Lucky win? The ravens are lucky it wasn't worse for them than it was. Batch played very well, IMO. Yes, he missed Wallace in the end zone, but Wallace also had a perfectly thrown deep ball bounce off his hands and Sanders fumbled a likely TD pass.

Not all of them. Eric Allen picked us, and he had a shit-eating grin during his piece dissecting the game.
