Marquee Matchup: Steelers at Ravens

**

QB Ben Roethlisberger vs. QB Joe Flacco**
Roethlisberger tallied his 29th career 300-yard passing performance last week vs. Cleveland, racking up 365 yards through the air. Flacco completed 35-of-62 passes for 345 yards and one touchdown in the Ravens' season opener against the Bengals. The two quarterbacks have a combined three Super Bowl championships and are undoubtedly the offensive leaders of their teams.

C Maurkice Pouncey vs. DT Haloti Ngata
The battle starts at the line of scrimmage and this game features two of the best players at their respective positions. All-Pro C Maurkice Pouncey paved the way for RB Le'Veon Bell to rush for 109 yards and Roethlisberger to throw for 365 yards last week vs. Cleveland. Ngata has been a stable on the Ravens' defensive line and earned his fifth consecutive Pro Bowl last season. In the season opener vs. Cincinnati, the Ravens defense held the Bengals to only 79 rushing yards on 26 attempts.

K Shaun Suisham vs. K Justin Tucker
The kickers will undoubtedly play a major role in this game as each of the last five matchups have been determined by three or fewer points. In their first duel last season, Suisham connected on a 42-yard field goal as time expired and was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week. The Ravens got revenge later in the season as Tucker made all five field goal attempts on Nov. 28 to lead Baltimore to a 22-20 victory.
