Pittsburgh @ Baltimore
Ravens 24-20
What did we learn from
Week 1? At this point it's hard to say anything definitively. However,
one thing we can now say for sure is that you can't perform a jumping kick to an opponent's chest/face. Even if you have the ball.
And even even if the other guy is a punter. But is it actually in the
rule book, or did it just look so crazy that the refs felt obligated to
throw a flag? I'm going to guess it's the latter. But who knows, I'm not
a ref, I've never claimed to be. The closest I came would have to be
when I went to a costume party as Denis Leary's character from the
movie The Ref. And in case you're wondering, no, most people did not get
it. Anyway, as impressive as the jump-kick was, the Steelers' 2nd half
collapse was equally unimpressive. Meanwhile, the Ravens had an opposite
experience; running out of time before they could complete a double
digit comeback. Clearly Baltimore is the one trending upward here and it
would be hard to imagine them losing two straight at home to open the
season.
