We put up 438 yards (2nd most this year), 32 first downs (most this year), and 20 points (with a missed FG and extra point) against the Steelers and that was with 5 turnovers.
Against Cowboys the next week we had 254 yards, 19 first downs, and 17 points...which was worse?
Outside of the Miami game the Ravens are only giving up 20 points a game. We scored 17. We definitely didn't play well but are averaging 33 in our last 3 games against them.
You stop it. Let's just ignore that the Steelers game was a turnover bonanza. Whatever helps you sleep, I guess. I am talking specifically about this year. Last year's results mean jack squat.
Teams compile film, analyze tendencies and draft players to help stop the best teams in their division. This is football 101.
If you feel better pretending we haven't been worse in general against our division, then good for you.
