00:00 [MUSIC PLAYING]
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)
