Not really a shocker. Cleveland is the only team even close to our level and I can see how one can argue they are more talented: better OL, better RBs, better QB. Do I think we end up losing more than the Browns? Not really. The Browns are fatally flawed in the big picture. Cinci and Balt. are clearly more talented than us.

"Us". We beat Cinn and Baltimore last year and improved this year.
I would not say they are 100% ahead of "us"

LMAO. Yea, sure. Balt. and Cinci haven't improved over last year or anything. Cuckoo, cuckoo, cuckoo.

I get it; No big deal. It's a looooong season. Injuries are the great equalizer. Biggest issue is we have one of the worse QB's in the division. But depending on KP's development, things could change. But I get their initial opinion of us.

Makes sense to have us 3rd or 4th in the division. Mostly because our QB is probably rated 4th in the division going into the season.

Hopefully Watson plays like he did last season and our D plays like it did for Mason and Duck.

I really don't mind being ranked last in May. I dont like how certain posters focus on anything negative possible.

Everything you mention about the Browns might be true. One problem; you forgot the other side of the ball. Advantage Steelers.

Funny thing you mention it, we couldn't have been any closer on D to Clev
if we tried. Damn near identical. Less than 1 yard per game difference.

Pittsburgh Pittsburgh 330.4 108.1 4.2 222.3 86.8 40 39.4 29:03 20.4
