We like the Baltimore Ravens to defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers on Saturday at 8:00pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Baltimore was previously bad against Pittsburgh, but silenced the doubters when it won 34-17 in the last meeting.

The Ravens have a chip on their shoulder entering the playoffs. They haven't been living up to their capabilities in years past in January/February and they need to send a message to everyone saying that they are here to stay.

The Ravens have covered the spread in five of their L6 games coming in.

Pittsburgh really had trouble down the stretch, losing each of its L4 games.

The Steelers were just 1-2 straight up and versus the spread in their three road divisional game this season.

Pittsburgh has also been bad in the postseason recently, losing five straight against the spread and straight up.

We think Baltimore dominates in the Wildcard Round.
