Kevin Cowherd Steelers 24,

The Steelers are salivating at the opportunity to damage the Ravens' playoff chances.

Jamison Hensley Steelers 20,

Ravens 16

The way to beat the Steelers' defense is to spread it out. The Ravens aren't healthy enough at wide receiver to do that.

Edward Lee Steelers 27,

Ravens 17

The Ravens are 1-8 in their past nine games in Pittsburgh. That record and Ben Roethlisberger are not a good match.

Ken Murray Steelers 22,

Ravens 17

Pittsburgh doesn't play in the sorry NFC North.

Mike Preston Steelers 28,

Ravens 21

Roethlisberger will be the difference-maker again.

Peter Schmuck Ravens 26,

Steelers 20

Roethlisberger used up the rest of his 2009 magic on that terrific final drive against the Packers.

WJZ's Mark Viviano Steelers 38,

Ravens 31

Too much injury uncertainty on both sides, so I flipped a coin: Pittsburgh wins.
