It sounded like it was rocking like the old days.

There were Ravens fans who are bloggers who were videotaping themselves at the game enjoying Renegade.

And I saw this particular one say that he went to a bunch of different road venues this year and said that no place rocked more than Akershire did while Renegade was playing.

Now maybe Bettis is getting into the fact that early on there were some uneasy moments and the Steelers were maybe another three and out and the Ravens score away from totally losing the crowd.

But isn't that fair?

It was a winner-take-all for the AFC North game and you come out slow.

If you'd come out real slow, don't you reserve the right to boo?

Don't you reserve the right to be pissed off?

I think you do.

A texter brings up, and it's kind of on the topic here,

I think people aren't bringing up enough Houston's road record this year.

They're 7-2 at home and 5-3 on the road.

The reason I haven't brought it up, even though it's factually accurate, is because they've won their last four road games at Los Angeles.

It's not a tough place to play necessarily because there's a lot of Texans fans there, but you're going to the West Coast.

At Kansas City, they won.

Not an easy place to play, and that's when Kansas City was still playing for something.

At Indianapolis, which as a dome, when they were good, one of the toughest places in the sport to play, they also beat Baltimore 44-10 on the road this year.

I'd rather have the game in Pittsburgh, and I do think it gives you an advantage, and it can help Rodgers hopefully neutralize the pass rush a little bit with a hard count.

We saw the difference that that made first time they played Cleveland and the second time they played Cleveland.

Scored 23 points the first game, only 6 the second game, and I think playing on the road affected that.
