    This. ALL of this! And that's a great point about us reducing turnovers. 

  • Must Win game tonight!

    They are all must win games from here on out, unfortunately 

  •              Browns    Steelers
    rushing    123.9    82.3
    passing    224.6    205.6
            
    run def      134.9    105.3
    pass def    221.1    226.9 

    The Steelers weak spot is their running game.....but since our weakness is run defense, and they get their RB back for the game tonight, I look for them to run the ball ok.

    They also have a very formidable defensive front.  And three fifths of our OL sucks....so, that doesn't bode well.  (and Fitzpatrick is good in their defensive backfield)

    I hope I'm wrong....but I think we're going to struggle tonight.

    I know, I know. I predicted us blowing them out because it was fun to think about, but honestly, I'm not sure how we're going to score points. When I looked back and saw that we've eclipsed 20 points only 3 times this year, I about vomited. 20 points in a football game is NOT that much, yet it's something we barely can manage. 

    So, instead of being pessimistic and listing ALL the negative reasons we're going to shit the sheets, I'm going to give Orion and company some reasons for optimism! (obviously my specialty, duh). 

    Number one...Kareem Hunt. He's going to catch, he's going to run, and he's going to get about 15 touches tonight. He was pretty close to busting one Sunday, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get TWO touchdowns tonight. I'm serious. One in the red zone, and one semi long screen pass. 

    Nick Chubb is number two. We saw the impact Hunt had in the blocking game, and there's a good chance Chubb breaks one tonight. They played off each other well in only the first game together. I expect more results tonight. 

    No turnovers in two games, and 9 total penalties. This is a revelation for our team, and there's no reason we can't continue the trend. It's going to be cool and dry which makes for prime conditions to take care of the ball. 

    Lastly, Myles Garrett. Myles terrorizes the Steelers LT, and he's put up some terrific numbers against the Steelers. Although he won't have any help from Chad "The Instant Bust" Thomas, Myles will still be able to make his presence felt.

    For salvaging a winning record or a remote chance at a wild card spot in the playoffs?

    Yes, of course.

    Some things fundamentally wrong with the team this season. Lots of people here argue about the reasons for that, but if that doesn't change it won't just be another losing season extending the playoff drought to worry about. Those need to be addressed even the team doesn't break the 8 win mark.

     No turnovers in two games, and 9 total penalties. 

    How about OBJ, Landry, or Higgins? Seals Jones and Harris active.. points will be scored. Baker trending in the right direction.

    Also, what about a defensive TD? Greedy and Ward have both dropped some INTs already. Myles is due to create some havoc.

    Yep, yep. All good things. We made just enough plays last week, and Baker having a game-winning drive is no small feat. Now, to be fair, Baker got destroyed last time he played Pittsburgh, and I'm betting he didn't forget it. He's going to be pumped. 

  • I want to go on record and apologize now... I bet my Steelers lovin' boss a 12 pack of beer that the Browns would win. I know better to ever bet on the Browns.

  • Greedy says hi early.

  • Sheldon needs to watch his clean up hits on the QB.

    Instinct from when you start as a kid.  Loose ball = cover ball.

    I was taught to knock it down... guess that's why I don't make the big bucks
