Ravens LB Calls Out Steelers Offense

The Pittsburgh Steelers offense has one weapon, according to the Baltimore Ravens.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers offense isn't clicking, but after making a few preparation adjustments, they believe they're headed upward moving forward. 

The Baltimore Ravens don't believe it. Inside linebacker Patrick Queen actually said that as long as they can shut down running back Najee Harris, the rest of the Steelers offense will take care of itself on Baltimore's road to a victory. 

"Any time you're playing a great player like [Najee Harris], you want to try to get after him. Obviously, when he goes, their team goes, and when you shut him down, their team shuts down," Queen told reporters. "The biggest focus is definitely stopping [No.] 22."

The Ravens currently hold the AFC North lead over the Steelers heading into their Week 5 matchup, sitting at 3-1 with their only loss coming in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. While Pittsburgh is 1-0 in the division, Baltimore is 2-0. 

They're not focused on the magnitude of the game, though, and instead simply trying to be 1-0 this week. And, apparently, the gameplan to do so is to stop Harris. 

"Honestly, we're just trying to be 1-0 this week. We're not really looking too much in the future. We're focusing on getting one percent better," Queen said. "Like I said, it's tough to go in [Pittsburgh]. You look at my record [vs. Pittsburgh], that's what I'm focused on this week, just getting better as a player, getting better on the defense, looking back at the past things we did wrong and just getting better from those things, so that way we can go in there and get this win. [We'll] start talking about the future at that point."
