    No way, shape or form the Steelers lose to the Browns at home. Will not happen. I guarantee this more then I did the AFCCG against the Chargers:)

    Only thing good about a bye week is rest for players and hoping your division rivals lose.

    I wish I had your confidence but my guarantee is that that a MT team can win or lose on any given Sunday no matter the competition. Well, Pats are pretty much a L no matter when or where.

    Saints and Raiders are pretty much a given L, too. Brees will have 3 TDs by the 2nd quarter. Steelers will lay down and die in Oakland, as usual.

    So best Steelers can do is: 10-5-1

    I actually have more confidence in the Steelers d containing the saints o more than the saints d containing the Steelers O in that one.. Both defenses are bad but I think the saints d is a lil worse

    If the game was at Heinz Field, then yeah... but I don't see Steelers getting a win on the road in New Orleans.

    I'd actually feel less confident at Heinz.. The saints smoked them there last time. Time to return the favor

    The Saints have smoked the Steelers every time they played since 2010. The only time Steelers beat Saints with Brees at QB was in '06... 8-8 season, Cowher's last year. Steelers D was a lot better in '06, than it is now. Obviously.

    Tomlin will soon be 0-3 vs. Saints/Brees. :facepalm:

    One benefit is Mike Glennon appears no where as a starting QB right now for any team. That is some good news for the Steelers.

    If Fitzpatrick can put up 48 on them I'm sure Ben can come close to that

    The Browns are who we thought they were. I don't see them getting 5 wins this year. The only thing that scares me is Ben's play coming off a bye. Either way beating the Browns at home is the closest thing to a gimme the Steelers will get the rest of the year. Tough schedule.

    I said we would lose to the Ravens, then win 4 straight. I stand by that. Ravens will not sweep us and Browns will not beat us at home.

    5-2-1 looks good, then its a toss up the remaining schedule

    I'll be close with my original prediction of 9-7. Either 9-6-1 or 8-7-1.

    Steelers win at least 10 this year. If they beat the Ravens, I see a 12 win season.



    Is New Orleans in primetime? Steelers always show up in primetime.

    That equates to 7-2 the rest of the way.

    That’s seems overly optimistic for someone I’m thinking of ;)

    Browns have problems, defense is faltering and their WR group is in shambles. If Callaway ever starts catching footballs, that could change but right now they just have Landry. They went out and signed Breshad Perriman, busted hard for the Ravens. They're desperate.

    Steelers continue their winning streak coming out of the bye. Convincingly.

    Wouldn't that mean they would go 7-3 the rest of the season? That would give them a 10-5-1 record.

    Their OL isn't good, the Chargers gave Mayfield problems in that game.

    Not to mention Mayfield is now struggling a bit. I am just waiting for Hue to panic and put Tyrod Taylor back in, so that the Browns trend of ruining rookie quarterbacks can continue.

    He deserves to be fired if he does that.

    I think Hue better win 6 or he is fired. He better win today against a team they should beat.

    Division rival losses would be a fine bye week.
