Suggs says rivalry with Patriots can't compare to Ravens-Steelers

Evan Habeeb / USA TODAY Sports

The Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots will renew their rivalry when they meet on "Monday Night Football" with the Ravens looking to hold on to the AFC North lead and the Patriots gunning for the No. 1 seed.

The two have battled in thrilling playoff games over the past five seasons and things have grown so heated between the two that Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs refuses to say Patriots quarterback Tom Brady's name to the press. That practice continued Wednesday, but more revealing was Suggs' thoughts on who is Baltimore's biggest rival: New England or Pittsburgh?

"That's pretty close," Suggs said, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. "We've had some legendary games with both of them. Nothing's better than Ravens-Steelers."

The Ravens-Steelers clash has been reserved for a special occasion: Christmas Day.
