The Ravens were stuck attacking the Steelers’ “stingy” defense on Sunday

OWINS MILLS, Md. — It’s a big Week 11 matchup on Sunday for the Ravens, who travel to Pittsburgh to take on their division rival and AFC North-leading Steelers.

The winner would take first place for now.

A huge point of focus for the Ravens offense will be against a stingy Steelers defense that is giving up just 16 points per game and is top four in stopping the run.

“These guys are flying, they’re going for it, they’re creating turnovers, they’re making explosive plays on defense. Their front seven is amazing. (The Steelers) are just a tremendous defense from what I see on film,” the Ravens quarterback says. Lamar Jackson.

Leading this Ravens offense will be former Raven Patrick Queen, who is in his first year as a Steeler.

“It’s no longer practice with PQ. It’s going to be different because it’s game action, not just practice,” Jackson says.

But Baltimore has a former Steeler of their own, wide receiver Diontae Johnson, who is building a relationship with his quarterback.

“We definitely want to get him in because he’s a great talent, a great addition to our offense, he’s explosive and a great receiver from what I’ve seen. I’ve played against him many times and I’ve seen it on the practice field,” says Jackson.

These two franchises have played 60 times.

Pittsburgh currently holds a 35-25 all-time winning streak.

The launch starts this Sunday at 13:00.
