Prediction: I won't watch more than 15 minutes.
 
Browns are falling off and the Steelers are getting into a groove just in time for the usual Pittsburgh beat down. This will be a joke.
 
I heard the Browns could wear orange pants this game, can anyone confirm this?

They took advantage of 2 defenses who struggle defensively in one way or another. Detroit was ranked 30th against the pass & Ben threw for 367 yds. Buffalo ranked 24th vs the run & Pitt ran for 136 yds.

The Browns are 4th vs the pass & 8th vs the run. In fact, they haven't faced a better overall defense than ours all season. It'll be interesting to see what their offensive gameplan is. I'm guessing Ben comes out firing over the middle. Heath Miller will be a key to contain for us. Hopefully we'll be able to get good pressure on Ben & force them to keep Miller to block more often.

Key for the Browns to win: Getting to Roethlisberger. The Steelers offensive line looked surprisingly good vs. the Lions, but has looked bad in other spots. The Steelers are allergic to gaining momentum, so look for the line to struggle again.

Key for the Steelers to win: Protect Roethlisberger, obvious. But also, get pressure on Campbell. Browns D is better than the Steelers D this season. But, the Steelers aren't HORRIBLE on D. Stop Ogbonnya and McGahee (is he playing?) and force Campbell to win it with his arm.

The Roethlisberger pressure factor isn't a huge secret. Opposing defenses have known this for years. If he has all day to throw, he'll be lights out and can beat any team in the league. If he is pressure A LOT, he is prone to throwing a pick or two and can drop any game.

One of these two mediocre teams will win this game and be firmly in the division and wildcard races. Absolutely stunning.
 
If us, Baltimore, and Tennessee all win (definitely plausible), we are the #6 seed for the time being:

6th Seed - Cleveland
Wins tie break over Tennessee based on strength of victory. Wins tie break over NY Jets based on best win percentage in conference games. Division tie break was initially used to eliminate Miami (NY Jets wins tie break over Miami based on best win percentage in division games). Division tie break was initially used to eliminate Baltimore (Cleveland wins tie break over Baltimore based on best win percentage in division games).
 
LET'S WIN THIS GAME
LET'S TRASH THE STEELERS
WOO
