Breakin It Down: Baltimore Ravens vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Breakin it down is 5 key stories plus a pick for each postseason game this season.

Will Fast Willie Hit the Edge?
Chris Johnson exposed the outside of the Ravens defense as slow and in the first half of their matchup he was abusing them on each carry. Fast Willie is nicknamed 'Fast' so one would imagine that he is 'Fast', will he be able to have the same success outside the hash marks as did 'Dash' Johnson.

Big Ben No Get Head Ache?
The Cheeseburger actually played well last week. "Look ma no turnovers". And he was only sacked one team meaning he didn't get a ridiculous concussion and have to get stretchered off the field with his thumb raised. So against a better defense, what are the chances the Steelers keep dirt off their Cheeseburger?

Who Collects the 'Hit' Money?
The Ravens have a hit on Hines Ward. They may say they don't in public, but come on the Defensosaurus Rex is obviously fine with injuring the other teams players. So who plays the role of a little extra contact after the whistle is called for that extra ankle tweek?

Does Flacco Have Three Good Throws In Him?
Like I pointed out earlier, Joe Flacco is essentially putting up the same numbers Trent Dilfer did in 2001, which essentially means he isn't doing much. Last week Flacco made three big plays. He hit a wideopen Derrick Mason for the deep td. He got lucky with the odds of his Arm Punt to Clayton. And finally he made a big throw to Todd Heap on the non-Delay of Game call. So does Flacco have those three throws in him again? Without them, the Ravens offense has no chance of scoring enough points to win this game.

And Finally When Does Ed Reed Get a Pick 6?
No pick 6 last week Ed? Hell not even one interception? You think you're offense can afford you not putting up points two weeks in a row? Ya that's not gonna work out well. You need to get on your horse, pick off Big Ben. Fly to the end zone while taunting him on the sidelines. Run back and chest bump the Defensosaurus. You'll need that to win this weekend.

The Pick
An All Pennsylvania Super Bowl. Ok, so I think I may or may not have picked all of the Vegas favorites so far this postseason which makes me feel gross inside.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big...

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
