was not as much as some would have you believe.
Baltimore's RB's ran 36 times for 162 yards (4.5 Y/C).
Pittsburgh's RB's ran 27 times for 157 yards (5.8 Y/C)
Edge: Pitt
Ben was 19/32, 187 yards, 1 TD.
Boller was 15/23 , 210, 2 TD, 1 INT.
Edge: Boller
of course, Baltimore scored 24 points, Pitt 13. but remove some terrible playcalling on the goaline (when Pitt ran a fade route, then the WR run, where Rodney made 2 great play) and just pound ahead twice, and I think Pitt ends up with 20 points.
basically, for all the talk about how "we stepped up", etc, I'm not sure we were that much better, defensively.
(offensively, we certainly played a lot better)
