Seeing as how it is a big week for intra division rivalry games in the NFL - notably the Browns/Steelers game - I figured I would repost an article I did way back in July.

I was thinking of how things have change since July. When I wrote this it looked like another re-building year for the Browns but now that has changed big time. Not only do the Browns have an outside shot at the play-offs but I think they have a shot against the Steelers. No matter what happens, it will be a better game than it was in week one.

Anyway, here is the post in its entirety. Maybe it will conjure

The Detroit Lions and Green Bay Packers are undefeated, 2-0, to lead the NFC North.  The Bengals score 45 points but lose to the Cleveland Browns.  Oh but wait. There's more! The Houston Texans are 2-0 and are tied atop the AFC South with the Super Bowl champ Colts. That is amazing enough but they are only a few points behind them in scoring for the season.  That is jaw dropping.

 

Remember that team that grinds out the clock with run after run? Well, the Pittsburgh Steelers are only a single field goal behind Peyton and the Colts.  And no one is even close
