In Week 13, the Baltimore Ravens travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in another tough AFC North matchup. Pittsburgh hasn’t played up to the standards of the Steelers of years past and they’ve been struggling this season, but you better believe that they will put up a fight against Baltimore in what has turned into one of the best rivalries in the NFL.
When speaking to the media, outside linebacker Tyus Bowser was asked how he’d explain the Ravens-Steelers rivalry to young players like rookie Odafe Oweh. Bowser gave an in-depth answer on the week.
“I would tell them, ‘It’s going to be a brawl.’ The Steelers are a great team, especially when we play them, and they’ve always been that way, and it always will be that way. For him [Odafe Oweh] going into Pittsburgh, especially with fans coming back this year, it’s going to be a whole new experience compared to last year. So, for the young guy, it’s going to be exciting for him, and I know he’s going to be ready for it.””I would tell them, ‘It’s going to be a brawl.’ The Steelers are a great team, especially when we play them, and they’ve always been that way, and it always will be that way.

It’s going to be fun seeing what the Baltimore defense can do to the Pittsburgh Steelers offense with hopefully the returns of defensive lineman Calais Campbell and cornerback Jimmy Smith. Without those two on Sunday night, the Ravens defense played well, so to get those players back would help the unit even more.
