  • I am going to a local bar to watch this one and hopefully don't get in a fight with some Steelers fans haha. For some reason, their are a ridiculous amount of their fans where I live(Winston-Salem NC area).

    As for the game itself, hopefully in reference to the above post, Jones can hold up against their DL, and Watson is a bit more accurate and I see no reason we can't go in there and get a win. Pickett is a pretty mediocre QB so far in his career, and we need to get at him early and often.

    My prediction:

    Browns 27 Steelers 17.

    ●  Browns 27 Steelers 17.

    I'm pretty much with you there on the spread,  BROWNS  by 8 to 12  like  CLE  30  PIT 20.   I'm  waiting to see if the offense and defense can show up together .... somewhat  like like last week a big AFCN win.

    And having a steady Kicker is ...... PRICELESS  !  

                *  A few thoughts this    ▪︎ AFCN ▪︎   head to head  weekend.

    ◆  We will see if this Cleveland  BROWNS  team are for real and go 2-0 in the AFCN on MNF.   

    ◆  Another thought who do want to win Sunday.  BAL or CIN ?   Our BROWNS have an opportunity to get a great start.

    ◆  And do you like the division games in weeks. 1 & 2.  Interesting or doesn't matter ?

    Fun weekend coming up.    Oh and  - GO BROWNS  !

  • The white helmets make their debut Monday night... 

    white helmets debut.jpg

  • Just got off NFL plus watching 49'ers at Steelers..

    Not many teams offense has caught up to their teams defense yet.. But, that damn Shanny & 9'ers Oh has ? (christ)

    Let's not fool ourselves.. not thinking TJ Watt isn't a top 5 DE..(Hutch's motor vs KC and then some) TJ had 3 sacks including his own strip fumble recovery. I like to think LT Trent Williams of the 9'ers is the best Tackle in the league today. Alex Highsmith saw Trent Williams most of the afternoon. Jed Wills would need a draw with Highsmith with little help.. 

    Dewand Jones ain't seen a Taz like TJ Watt since Hutchinson played at Michigan. D. Jones maybe 10-15 lbs. lighter from his playing weight at Bucks.. But no ! I Don't expect a 4th round rookie D. Jones to play on a island with a stud like TJ Watt all evening either. He'll need some chip help & Watson can't hold the rock back there looking for escape lanes late. (Brock Purdy knew when to live to the next play) 

    Tomlin said the best thing I heard all week.. He respects our tight coverage corner play now. I agree.. Expecting more of Jim Schwartz badass-ery designed pressures & Kenny Pickett to throw 2 key picks.. 

    we maybe catching some nfl player luck in this one? (that's rare)   Taking the Browns to cover in a tuff AFCN roadie..... Browns  24 - 20  F

    Yeah I think we could actually have a bigger winning spread than that; well that is what my heart says anyway haha, but my head says we will get the win but won't be a blow out by any means and will have to pull away a tad in the 4th quarter. And yes good to have confidence in our kicker for sure.

    To answer your question, I actually prefer to have division matchups early on, shows who is a legit contender for the division title while sussing out each other's strengths and weaknesses. In the grand scheme of things with so many games left to play doesn't mean a ton no, but in a general sense anytime you can get out to a 2-0 start in the division is obviously a good thing.

    I would prefer the Ravens to win tbh; put those pricks from Cincy in an 0-2 division hole. Don't have much use for the Ravens either, but them starting off 2-0 is nothing, compared to Cincy getting a win and getting some confidence back.

    Fun weekend indeed. Supposed to have a root canal on Friday evening, hope it goes well and doesn't mess me up for the game haha.

    Maybe the home crowd will think it’s an exhibition game against Penn State and be conflicted on who to root for? 

    Well played Brownies.

    Best way to negate TJ is to stay out of 3rd and long.  
     

    Slightly easier without typical stellar NT play you get from the Steelers and No Heyward.  

  • Heyward to IR, out minimum 8 weeks.  

    He might be a Steeler, but he's also a Buckeye and a great ambassador for the game of football.     It's a huge loss for PIT, and a loss the Brownies need to capitalize on.     

  • The Browns need to take this game seriously from start to finish. Just because Pittsburgh is missing players doesn't mean they can coast through the game.  If they do then the culture truly hasn't changed. At least you know Schwartz will have his guys ready on his side of the ball.

    I feel your conflict. Roethlisberger was a RedHawk.

    They need Chubb alot!!!  Steelers can't stop the run!!!  Please Kev...dont try to air it out this week!!!

    I could see the Steelers selling out to stop Chubb and some opportunities opening up downfield.  I think  This game is on Deshaun and the offensive tackles giving time to protect. 
     

    Let Chubb bleed the clock the last 15 mins

    Browns -1.5, well, IIRC the 49ers were favored by 2. We know how that turned out. 

    Regarding the Bungle- Ratbird game, don't care who wins, but the Browns have to win also. No letdown guys.

    This is a potential game changer indeed! I distinctly remember him tearing our O-line some new ones the last couple of times we played them.

    I think you hit the nail on the head about Schwartz; our guys were ready week one and I think they will be again. Get after Pickett early and often, make him fucking cry, and as long as Watson and company are pretty decent, we should win this one going away. That's unusual for me to say as a Browns fan when playing these haha, but that is how confident I am.

    I think we will take them seriously.

  • So apparently the Steelers have a 20 game win streak at home during the regular season vs the Browns?

    This is as good of time as any to end that shit.

    The Browns haven’t won a regular season game in Pittsburgh since Oct. 5, 2003, a 33-13 victory.

    Pittsburgh has also won 20 straight Monday night home games.

    The Browns are gonna ream the Stools a new asshole... Just watch... Stooler fans will vacate Athletes feet stadium by halftime

  • I am going to a local bar to watch this one and hopefully don't get in a fight with some Steelers fans haha. For some reason, their are a ridiculous amount of their fans where I live(Winston-Salem NC area).

    As for the game itself, hopefully in reference to the above post, Jones can hold up against their DL, and Watson is a bit more accurate and I see no reason we can't go in there and get a win. Pickett is a pretty mediocre QB so far in his career, and we need to get at him early and often.

    My prediction:

    Browns 27 Steelers 17.

    Stoolers fans all over here on WV. There were no Bungles fans until they got Burrow. Funny how that happened 

    Browns 26 stoolers 13

    Pickett is the next Colt McCoy

    Hey B149,  I hear you on that,   I was surprised how many steeler  fans have moved west into Ohio.  So much so that we are blacked OUT when the BROWNS/ steelerz play at the same time.   

  • Cooper apparently aggravated his groin, is questionable for MNF.
