We will see the ravens in the playoffs

[SoCalFan]

ravens are NOT the best team in the AFC...BS! Alot of what ifs,but im sure there would have been a different outcome last night had Woodley and Sanders were playing,along with Farrior and others,we were NOT at full strength! Thats O.K,let these Rats have a moment because mark my word,that Steeler locker room knows they lost that game more than the ravens beat them! Anyone with common sense that watched that game knows that!We see em in the playoffs at full strength and it wont be close!!!

I said they're the best team right NOW. injuries are part of the game and we gotta accept that. Reason why I'm not worried is we stood toe to toe with the ravens without sanders, woodley, and farrior, and if we can get healthy in time for the playoffs and face them again, I like our chances, even in their backyard.

but with that said I won't discredit their win, they deserved it. Like it or not, right now they are the top dog. Who's better than them? I think they're better overall than the patriots and the bills look to be falling off. the jets aren't going to be a championship team as long as dirty sanchez is their qb. the texans can be good or really bad, they need to have more consistency to make me a believer. cincy is still unproven until they beat a good team. afc west is a joke and i don't think anyone from that division are contenders.

I think we'll see them in the playoffs too. And I hope we do. I'm not afraid of playing them a third time and knocking them out of the playoffs for a third year in a row. However, if you're the ratbirds you've gotta be feeling confident about playing the Steelers in any location this year.

They were there in week #1. That's right, week #1 doesn't count anymore.

I know, I do feel like we had a better shot at winning, but the fact of the matter is they still won. I accept that. January is a different animal and I ain't worried

Duh. That's because that was the Ravens' "Super Bowl," so both their performance and that of the Steelers (including Woodley, Farrior, et. al.) are null and void. The game didn't count, in essence. I'm not sure what it is that is so hard to understand about this concept.

It was a close loss and if we were at full strength, or if LeBeau would have woke up from his first half nap, we probably would have one. So it's not this specific loss that I'm worried about, it's that the division is pretty out of reach. If we go 6-1 they have to lose 3 games for us to win the division, that's IF we go 6-1 and that's not even mentioning the Bengals.

Whatever makes you feel better.

I see them dropping one to the Chargers, 49ers, and Bengals
