we have a longer wait this time:

105 hours

In many ways I dislike being a "favorite."

I don't bet so odds and picks mean nothing to me.

Because of the way the defense played against the Bengals. I feel like this defense can repeat their efforts.

But games can be nuts especially with turnovers. Tomlin gets his team ready to play. It appears the Steelers will have Heyward and Johnson missing the game. Those are important players.

I am optimistic but I take no team lightly ever.

The Browns have a chance to go 2-0 for the first time in 30 years and 2-0 in division play for the first time since 2002. Whew, that is an ugly number.

I have to cool the jets and just wait and see calmly.

I don't see us winning by more than 3 if we do, so if it gets to 3.5 I'll bet it

The Browns will win if the Zebras let them win. Problem is, they’re playing in Pittsburgh and we know how the refs can and will influence a game. I look for a few questionable holding and pass interference calls against us while the Steelers get few if any back breaking calls against them.

Tomlin knows how to prepare a team.

Especially for a game like this. Underdog Steelers at home on Monday Night.

The Browns have to approach this game one way. Execute the next play. Don't get hung up in the noise or last week's win.

Approach the game one play at a time. Play your game. Make each snap an example of what you are supposed to do. Stack plays.

You are not here to prove to the media you are legit. You are not here to shake the curse of the Steelers. You cannot correct all that has gone down before. Forget all that crap.

Play the game. Make each play the best it can be. Then move on to the next play and repeat.

We have the talent to win this game. Don't let the moment get to big. Keep it simple.

Football is an emotional game played by young men. As Belichick says "just do your job."

That combination, especially with the brown pants, that just happens to be the same color as the football, does help to hide the ball and give the runners a bit of an advantage.

Listening to the Ken Carman show today. Darell Rovell (spelling), said the only reason the white helmets went to orange was football went to white balls to play at night and they didnt want the helmets and footballs to cause problems.

I like the white helmets as well, but only a few times a year as well.

Stay humble!

The Steelers on home turf is still a huge task for the Browns to overcome. I think the mental barrier will be the biggest hurdle. Without Cooper then Watson needs to be as unpredictable as possibly and use his legs whenever there’s an opportunity. Avoid being sacked by Watts at all cost. With air under his wings the home crowd will go wild.

I fully trust Schwartz and our defense but I can’t say the the same regarding Stefanski. My fear is that he will be his usual himself late in the game with insecurity and illogical Red Zone play calls where everyone is confused excepts the Steelers Dline.
