I will take a Brady Quinn led team over a Bryon Leftwhich led team 100 times out of 100, if for no other reason than Leftwhich has proven he is a failure and Quinn is still an unknown.

Now Quinn is behind the 8 ball because the Browns are far behind but Leftwhich still sucks

waitaminit... your talking about the Browns still having a chance to win the North???

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! (cough, cough, gag.... ahem).

sorry. I, uh... didn't pick that one up exactly. so yeah, um... sure. good luck with that!

so how is Leftwich's record compared to Romo's record vs common opponents this year?

and no... I am not saying that means the Steelers will win it either... if anything, I see the Ravens winning it before the Browns do... that's all I am saying. The Browns do not have enough division wins to hold a tie breaker over anyone. they got swept by the Ravens, and beat by us once already.

IF you beat Dallas, then you would be third. But seeing as how you have the same record against our division as we do, and knowing we'll be healthy I'm not all that worried about your pathetic offense, with or without Roethlisberger.

The best division record the Browns can hope for is .500. In the game they beat the Bengals on, the Bengals qb, Fitspatrick, was the leading passer.

The only thing about our offense you will have to worry about is did you pressure the qb enough. Given time, the offense will hose you, and the Steelers will not need the league leading defense. Sort of like you not needing a kicker in FFL!

looking at the Steelers schedule it is very possible to see them finish 2 and 5 ESPECIALLY if they have to rely on Leftwhich

the Cleveland schedule sets up more favorable with homes games, long weeks, and a couple more soft opponents than Pitt has. They could finish 2 and 5.

which makes the week 17 games between the two VERY important right?

I understand it is unlikely, but none the less possible so I see no need to conceed at this point.

In the end the most likely scenario sees all of us losing, as the Ravens already have 5 wins and have by far the most favorable end of season schedule if for no other reason the Titans are not on it.

The Ravens eight remaining games see them at home 4 times, at Houston, and at Cinncy. If they just win those 6 games odds are high they win the division.

Should the ravens pull an upset in New York or Dallas and they might nail home field advantage

Why because you think Leftwich will still be the QB? Because Roethlisberger sure as hell won't be able to do anything.

I guess since you put it that way, your right.

kinda possible the Chiefs run the table, and win the AFC West as well, when you think about it...
