Has Billick left his heart in Pittsburgh?

When asked about playing the Steelers at home for the second time, Billick just grinned!
Most coaches would be just a tad scared of playing their rival for the third time in once season.

This is especially true if you are the Ravens and will have to travel to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers.

The Ravens are still not taken serious in this years playoffs.

The Ravens are on a playoff winning streak of five straight. The last time these two teams met, the Ravens snuck out with a 13-10 win. Matt Stover kicked the game winning field goal with 1:49 seconds left in the game.

Of course, I forgot to mention that the Steelers did get one last shot at tying the game. Kris Brown got one last kick with 14 seconds left, but did not make it. Brown looked like "Charlie Brown" and was not close.

But, the Steelers would get the last laugh in Baltimore with a 26-21 win, dominating the game from beginning to end. Kicker Brown would not have to try to win this one.

The only stat that matters to the Ravens is Coach Billick's streak of beating the Steelers. Billick's Ravens have not lost to Pittsburgh at home in all of the coach's three seasons.

So when you see Billick grin, do not take it as arrogant, take it as confident.

Billick was spotted looking at real estate in the greater Pittsburgh area recently. Maybe Billick has left his heart in Pittsburgh, I know the Ravens have!
