Steelers-Ravens presents some risky fantasy options

In one of the most heated rivalries in the NFL, the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Baltimore Ravens Thursday night in the Charm City. You can catch all of the Thursday Night Football action live on NFL Network.

Let's take a look at some of the key players on both the Steelers and Ravens that many of you have on your fantasy rosters. And be sure to check out Michael Fabiano's Start 'Em Sit 'Em for some extra Week 2 lineup advice.
