I'll take wins any way they get them. But there has to be a slight part where you go.. why didnt they score more..

as a coach, that would be where you look and say, we could have done this better. because if you dont find any room for improvement.. there are problems.

again not saying it wasnt embarrasing for us, or that it wasnt a good win for you guys. Heck if the steelers beat the ravens by 1 point i'd be happy (or any team for that matter).

for example if you went head to head with a civic at a drag strip (not the street of course!) and your won by 3 car lengths. you'd be like sweet i won, but then wonder why it was only 3 car lengths.
A lot of those turnovers were later in the game when it was already over. You wanted them to run up the score on you? Ok, that's fine. With game already in hand, they ran the ball a ton. The only turnover they failed on when it was remotely close was the deflected interception, where they went for it on 4th and short, but they were already up 3 scores.

Of course there's always room for improvement, but it was a blowout, plain and simple. And any team that puts up 35 on the Steelers ought to thank their lucky stars, regardless of turnover ratio.

There's no part of me that wonders why they didn't score more. The Ravens don't average 35 points a game on offense. I didn't need it to be 56-7 for the point to be driven home. It's one game in a long season.
