Wow

Great reason for optimism.  Just keep in mind, this was just the Steelers.

The Browns are the more talented team, and the rest is hype.  Finally, they just seem to have realized that. This wasn't an upset.  It was winning one of those games you're supposed to win.  They should win most of the rest of their games as well, despite the painful loss of Alex Mack.

Whoever said that this offensive line lacked depth isn't paying attention.

Finally, the defense played up to it's potential.  The Steelers are overrated, but this was a talented and balanced offense.

Hoyer again got off to a slow start, but this time only needed a three point deficit to wake tf up.

The biggest surprise about this team is the fact that these wide receivers aren't just okay-they're pretty good.

Kyle threw three tight ends at the Steelers, a LOT.    Is it starting to sink in that none of them are here strictly to block?

Three tight ends, often lined up next to and behind each other, mandated a base defense, forcing the Steelers to bunch up their own counterparts on one side and outside the tackles. One of those had to be a Since Shazier wasn't playing, LaBeau really couldn't match up in coverage.

One or both of Cameron's deep catches came out of this bunch, the Steelers were forced to weaken one side of their formation, while the Browns could still run at both sides.  Kyle Shanahan is one smart cookie!

This was an in-your-face offense.  The Brown's just loaded up and punched them in the face, repeatedly.  Then took their lunch money.

The Bengals are the bull of these woods.  The Ravens are better than the Steelers, but not as good as these Browns.  Now the players KNOW how good they are, and that was the most important thing.

They should stomp the Ravens almost as badly, and they'll have a great chance against the Bengals.  Oh yeah...Gordon is coming.

I pity the fools.
