00:02 We also have Joe basically like a round

00:05 robin in the AFC North this week.

00:08 One of the other big games is the other two

00:10 teams in that division, 6-3 Steelers and the 6-3 Cleveland

00:16 Browns.

00:17 Here is Kevin Stefanski-Watson coming off probably

00:20 his best half of football that he's played

00:23 since he's been in Cleveland, getting

00:24 ready to take on the Steelers.

00:26 Stefanski ain't worried about it.

00:28 He's played in a lot of big games in his life,

00:31 high school, college pros.

00:33 He knows what's required of him.

00:36 So I don't think there's--

00:38 I think he looks forward to all these games on the schedule.

00:42 And we know what it means when you're

00:44 playing an AFC North opponent.

00:46 We know what that entails.

00:47 We know what's required, how physical it's going

00:49 to be, those type of things.

00:51 I think DeSean, like all of our players,

00:53 are excited about that opportunity.

00:56 Joe, this is 4 right now.

00:59 Browns minus 4 for this line with a 36 and 1/2 total,

01:04 very low total.

01:05 I think this is a blue-collar football game, Joe, where,

01:10 look, you know what I'm going to do here.

01:12 And I've done it a lot this year.

01:14 You're going to give me 4 points with this Steeler team

01:18 in a division game where I know it's probably

01:22 going to be 16-13, 19-16, all these Steeler games.

01:27 21-19.

01:29 Well, but all these Steeler--

01:30 Joe, I mean, you have to admit that.

01:32 All these Steeler games pretty much

01:35 play out the same exact way.

01:37 They really do.

01:38 They're down to the end.

01:39 And you have these two teams with that play low scoring

01:42 kind of grind at games.

01:43 I understand we've got some different-- last week,

01:45 Browns scored a lot of points.

01:46 It was a little crazy with the Ravens.

01:48 But for the most part, I think defenses

01:50 are going to rule the day with big plays in this game.

01:53 And I'm going to want 4 points with the road team here.

01:56 That's what I'm going to want.

01:57 I have to tread lightly in terms of the Pittsburgh

02:00 and the Oregon Duck faithful because I'm not

02:02 allowed to comment.

02:04 I'm not allowed to comment any type of negativity

02:07 towards the Steeltown and the Pittsburgh Steelers crew.

02:12 Well, hang on.

02:13 You got something against them.

02:15 They must have lost a ticket or two down the road.

02:17 No, no, stop.

02:19 I'll give you the good, the bad, and the ugly, OK?

02:22 The good is I want Mike Tomlin as coach of the Miami Dolphins.

02:25 I think he's a fantastic head coach,

02:27 always has his team prepared.

02:29 I have no problem with Mike Tomlin.

02:31 I have no problem with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

02:34 It's when we have a little bit of success in Pittsburgh,

02:37 it's all of a sudden like the New York Jets fan base,

02:40 we pump it up like it's the second coming of Terry

02:43 Bradshaw and Joe Green.

02:44 All right, let's just call it what it is.

02:46 They're a good team.

02:48 They're not an elite team, all right?

02:49 And they do sometimes win by smoke and mirrors.

02:52 You know that just as well as everybody

02:54 that backs the Pittsburgh Steelers.

02:56 Their offense is inconsistent.

02:58 You have a dominant defensive player

03:00 in terms of TJ Watt that somehow, someway is always

03:04 around the football and pulls a fumble or an interception

03:08 to turn the ball game around.

03:10 And yet, here they are going up against an above average top 10

03:14 defense.

03:15 And I think Cleveland is the better team.

03:18 And I thought they would beat Baltimore.

03:20 I think they're going to beat Pittsburgh.

03:21 How about this?

03:22 24-13, Cleveland wins, covers, and the over comes in.

03:27 Everybody's happy.

03:28 And I will just say this for the Pittsburgh Steelers faithful.

03:31 I'm not down on Pittsburgh.

03:32 My grandmother grew up in Jim Thorpe, PA,

03:35 and used to rock a Frank O'Hara's jersey

03:37 each and every Sunday, OK?

03:39 So let's just call it what it is.

03:41 You love going after the Steelers.

03:44 I don't know if you didn't like Bradshaw as a kid.

03:46 You must have been something with you with Bradshaw.

03:49 You got some kind of thing against the Steelers.

03:51 It's always emotional with you.

03:53 Very emotional when it comes to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

03:57 Because I used to be a huge Greg Lloyd fan.

03:59 I used to love Kevin Green, Greg Lloyd.

04:02 I loved that whole team.

04:03 I mean, let's-- Cordell Stewart, don't start with me.

04:06 I like Pittsburgh.

04:07 I have nothing against them.

04:09 But I got to look at it objectively.

04:12 I think the Browns are a better team.

04:15 It's like if you pick against Kenneth Dick,

04:17 you don't think the sky's going to fall.

04:19 I think the Browns are a better team also.

04:22 I actually think the Browns are going to win the game on Sunday.

04:26 But I'm going to want those four points with Mike

04:28 Tomlin in the division game.

04:30 I'm going to take them.

04:31 Just because I don't like the Rattlers.

04:32 Could be for me as well.

04:33 Maybe we'll go heads up.

04:34 Maybe we'll go heads up in this one this week.

04:36 Why not?

04:37 We might as well.

04:39 (upbeat music)
