Pittsburgh Steelers: Pucker up: Your Terrible Towels can't Fix this (although the referees COULD dammit)

1: Devlin Hodges is a very good Quarterback, as in better than Mason Rudolph (see earlier posts).  Long-term, Rudolph could come out on top, but right now, Hodges is better.  

2: The Steelers Oline will be Maukice Pounceyless. His replacement, BJ Finney, was undrafted, but is a 4 year veteran, so he might not suck...but then, he is NOT like Pouncey, who is a stud.  That's gotta sting a little!

3: Larry Ogunjobi will be back, and will definitely be picking on Finney a lot.

4: Olivier Vernon, who didn't play in the first Steelers game, should also be back for the rematch.

5: DT Sheldon Richardson excelled at DE vs the Dolphins (this is not new for him), and Steve Wilks might start moving him around now.

I didn't pay enough attention, and haven't studied films like the guys I cite here do, but suspect that Steve Wilks read my post-Garrett suspension post and ran some 3-man fronts with Takitaki as a 4th passrusher in a defacto 3-4, ala Genard Avery.

Steve Wilks might have ways to compensate for the loss of Myles Garrett.  You guys should encourage him to keep reading this Blog, since the communications glitch between me and the organization remains unresolved for some reason, but I digress:

6: Juju Smith-Schuster and Greg Robinson are in the concussion protocol, and have great chances of missing this game.

This messes up both teams, but it's hard to determine who gets hurt worse:

Greg Robinson has actually been playing better, but then the Coaching staff obviously reads this Blog, as they have schemed to mask Robinson and Hubbard's weaknesses.

The Steelers have good depth at WR, and "third string" Hodges will have had reps with the backups.

I guess I have to give the Steelers a slight edge in the concussion race.

7: While the Browns' offense is only now getting it together (with Kareem Hunt online and Njoku due back tee-tee),  the Browns' defense is ahead of them.

8: The Steelers' offense is, conversely, in decline.  The Bengals' defense stifled them last week, and the Browns...well I'm still pist that the Steelers scored ANY points...

9: Baker Mayfield revels in hostility.  He is at his best with his back against the wall, behind enema lines.

10: Except for that exceptional offensive line, the Browns outgun the Steelers talent-wise (oh good grief DUH I mean generally!  Fitzpatrick is better than Randall and...

Well you're not retarded you get it right good grief shoot me...

Oh I forgot: The zebras could "prove me wrong" haha---
