Sadly, I can understand where the guy who has the Browns over the Steelers is coming from. In Pittsburgh's best game (Seattle) they showed more than Cleveland has in their wins. But in the other two, they've shown less. A domination-style loss to the Ravens and a close win over a bad Colts team.
It's hard to make any kind of prediction that's more than a wild guess as to how things will go from here on out. Like with you guys. 2-1 record...every game being close (at least until the end of the Indy one, when you guys opened it up some)...all three opponents being bad. Just a bitch trying to predict what those three games mean as far as the season as a whole.
Right now I think a lot of teams would "take their chances" against the Steelers. They haven't come out their usual "fresh" attacking selves.
Whether age is a factor or whatever they just don't seem to be storming out of the gate as usual.
Like I've said about the Browns "a win is a win" and I'm sure they are both pleased at 2-1.
Whether Pittsburgh picks up steam as the season goes along or withers from the "age factor" remains to be seen. Just hope the Browns are around to make things interesting in those last 5 games.
