Baltimore at Pittsburgh

My how times have changed. It is strange to see both of these teams struggling, with neither over .500 heading into week seven. While they are both respectable on defense, they are both allowing over 20 points per game on the season. The Ravens have allowed 31.7 points per game in their three road tilts. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh has given up 28 per game at home this season. It isn't getting better for Baltimore as they have at least four defensive starters either out or ailing. While defense has been the calling card for these clubs, it hasn't been that way when they tangle, as the OVER has gone 4-1 in the last five meetings overall, and 7-2-1 to the OVER in the last 10 meetings in Pittsburgh. The Ravens have also played to a 13-5 mark to the OVER in their last 18 when following a loss. Under John Harbaugh, Baltimore is 19-10 OVER as a road dog. This one has always looked defensive, but most of the time that simply isn't the case on the scoreboard. Take the OVER.
