    To be fair though, I believe Brady Quinn is undefeated when starting against the Steelers...

    The language is a little dated, but the message remains the same...

    True. He led Cleveland to their only win over Pittsburgh in the last 18 games that they've played against each other.

    Correct. He traveled with the team, but is not playing today. He has a form of Sickle Cell that is greatly affected by the altitude.

    He got very ill after a game in I think 2007. He had to have his spleen and gall bladder removed and nearly died. I agree with the decision not to play him. It's football, not worth risking your life over.

    Maybe they should've kept him around.

    They wouldn't be getting owned by the Steelers like they are.

    14-3 and 13-9 is owned? Well under that logic that 35-7 loss by the steelers to the ravens was an absolute massacre!

    clearly he was the difference-maker that night...not any joe off the street could just come in and go 6-19 for 90 yards and a 48 qb rating

    22-2 in the last 24...17-1 in last 18 is the complete definition of ownage

    nice season, 4-12

    That game was...no doubt about it.

    Steelers rebounded and went 12-4, though, after you all thought they were finished.

    Browns just sucked from Week 1 through Week 17.

    All three favorites won so far. That's not good.

    Doesn't matter. Bruce Arians controls how this game unfolds.
  • Ironman92
    And yes, that scares the t total fuck out of me.

    Why the steelers are favored?

    Sadly the Browns-Steelers rivalry has always been one of cyclical dominance. Luckily for Browns fans Dick LeBeau ain't getting any younger.


    As for today's game. The Steelers should shut down the Broncos spread option offense pretty easily. Offensively even a hobbled Ben and "Mr. B/Circle Button" Redman should be enough to put up at least 20 points. Today we find out if God really does have a hand in the outcomes of football games with Tebow vs. Ben. Talk about polar opposites in terms of morality.

    Great D-coordinator, but I think it's a complete joke he is in the HOF.

    Yeah, an underdog is due to win.

    Also, every game has been a blowout.

    We're looking at a 16-13 game for sure.

    Ok, enough Steelers-Browns talk.

    Browns played the Steelers really tough this year. Those were close games. I'll be straight about that.

    now the focus must shift to today...playoff game an hour away...getting nervous

    You're referring to Redman's tendency to spin. Priceless. Well played.

    Still butt hurt because the Browns cut him? He had 62 Int's that is amazing for the era he played in and he still holds the record for most consecutive games played in for a CB. He earned his way in.

    lol non is such a turd

    steelers are goign to crush the broncos. I love how scared he gets.

    No way it's a blowout.

    Steelers have struggled every road game against bad teams like Indy, Kansas City, etc.

    They're so injured. I don't understand them being 8 1/2 point favorites.

    They won't score more than 16 points so Denver just needs 10.

    Three blowouts already...it's going to be a nailbiter for the viewing audience.
