The Baltimore Ravens and the Pittsburgh Steelers have long been defined by their defenses, so it’s natural that the two AFC North powers have embraced a back-and-forth rivalry characterized by their physicality and down-to-the-wire finishes.
It’s a quarterback, however, who’s swung the pendulum in Pittsburgh’s favor.
The Steelers have won the last six installments of one of the NFL’s fiercest rivalries when Ben Roethlisberger has played, a trend they’ll hope to continue when the Ravens travel to Heinz Field for Saturday’s AFC Divisional showdown.
