Game: (5-6) Cleveland Browns at (6-5) Pittsburgh Steelers

Summary: Surely everyone has forgotten about that whole helmet incident by now, right? Yeah, I didn’t think so. There’s no one on this Cleveland Browns team that thinks Myles Garrett was treated fairly by the NFL after hitting Mason Rudolph in the head with a helmet during the brawl just a couple of weeks ago.

This isn’t to say that they believe No. 95 shouldn’t have been suspended, but the fact that the league put the word “indefinite” on his suspension means there’s no timetable for his return — and that’s the part that feels unfair.

With all that being said, it doesn’t matter what’s happening on the Pittsburgh sideline. Whether they are fully healthy and have all their stars or not, the Browns are going to come out swinging (hopefully not literally though).

For years, the Steelers have been the bully and for once, Cleveland was the last time they met. Take the unfortunate brawl out and they were the team delivering the hits and making things tough on the opponent.

This time, they look for the sweep and that became an even bigger probability when the Steelers announced Rudolph wouldn’t play — which is probably for the best.

With Devlin Hodges under center for the home team, the Browns have a huge advantage. Look for them to get to 6-6 on the season and upset the Steelers faithful in their own stadium.

Prediction: Cleveland 24, Pittsburgh 13
