PITTSBURGH – It's time to make a new round of the Steelers drama.

This time, the momentum is a scathing loss of their bitter division rival, while the Baltimore Ravens defeated the 26-14 Steelers.

The verdict was a fairly complete verdict. Baltimore's No. 1 defensive put Ben Roethlisberger on the hook and the Steelers' explosive offense, forcing two turnovers. Joe Flacco scored 363 yards and two touchdowns without a choice. Reliable kicker Justin Tucker scored four goals.

All this kept the Steelers (1-2-1) in the AFC North winery, tied with the Cleveland Browns.

Baltimore (3-1) is technically in second place, as his loss to Cincinnati in Week 2 allows the Bengals (3-1) to have a decisive game.

Three other things we learned:

– The Ravens are no longer perfect in the red zone. Baltimore entered the game as the first team in the history of the NFL to kick off a season by scoring touchdowns in its first 12 trips into the 20-yard line. They made 13-13 in the first quarter when they turned a Vance McDonald fumble into a Joe Flacco 3-yard TD flip over Alex Collins. Then, the sequence ended with a thump at the beginning of the second quarter, while Collins was stripped by Cody Sensabaugh at the first and second ends of the game. The mishap has given the Steelers new life. Rather than taking a 21-3 lead in Baltimore, Pittsburgh took the turnover and led 79 yards for field placement … and shortly thereafter, 14-14, with a spectacular touchdown. Antonio Brown. You talk about a game changer. The turnover has made it a new game.

– Joe Flacco is a better pitcher than lure. The Ravens quarterback signed on to a 33-yard touchdown pass to John Brown for the first game score. He gave Brown $ 71 million to create another scoring opportunity. Flacco shifted the chains several times with third clutch shots. Still, Flacco became a lure, lined up as receiver for at least half a dozen plays while Baltimore inserted his Wildcat squad with rookie quarterback Lamar Jackson. Even though Jackson did well, including a dive in three out of three yards and three in the third quarter, which allowed the club to keep its momentum in the third quarter, one wonders if the change would have been worth it. the disruption of the flow one night when Flacco was in a good rhythm. In addition, Flacco did not deceive anyone when he was lined up as a receiver, which allowed D de Pittsburgh to have more leeway to stop Jackson's races.

– Bronko Nagurski would be proud. Six nights after punishing Bucs goalkeeper Chris Conte with a stiff arm that opened the lane to 75 yards, Steelers tight Vance McDonald beat two Ravens – Tavon Young and Tony Jefferson – to break tackle in the field. -court.

McDonald, who at halftime had five high-level receptions for 62 yards, is undoubtedly the most physical end of today's game. His muscular style gives an idea of ​​how the Hall of Fame defenseman's defender, Nagurski, played a representative role of power football in the 1930s.
