It was one of the best Browns games I've seen since they came back and definitely one of the better Browns/Steeler games. That being said ... I still hate the f'n Steelers.

Looks like Erie, which probably houses the most equal Browns vs. Steelers fanbase in the country, will go 0 for 2 in seeing the game on television. The first game wasn't shown because the Bills/Texans game was shown, and this time, it will be shown on NFL Network, which most people in the Erie area do not have.

People in Erie would have it if they ditched cable and switched to dish or direc tv (not to mention you get more money for you're buck). Most people in erie should be able to get it.
I have dish and right now watching ratturds/bungels game.

Are they're any Pittsburgh Stations like CW, KDKA, WTAE or FSN up there. Because I can remember Stan Savaran saying on one of his TV shows that a local network will pick it up on their feed. You'll only see it if you get that channel. But you must live within the Pittsburgh media market.

WJW in Cleveland and KDKA in Pittsburgh have the rights to the game on Thursday.
If not, go to someplace that gets Sunday Ticket, or any type of dish (NFL Network is on DirecTV and Dish) and watch it.

Yea, there should be a bar or club in the area that will have it on satellite or something.

In Steubenville I always go to Damon's to watch the Browns when I'm not at the stadium or the game's not on one of the Pittsburgh or Ohio Valley channels.

Go browns! This time finsh the job. Gonna be an interesting game. Looks like Anderson will be starting for the Browns so we'll see how he can handle the pittsburgh blitz. The team whos D holds out the longest will win cause both teams offenses have '?s'.

Polamalu (or however the hell you spell it) being out is a big loss for the squeelers. The Browns have been playing shorthanded all year on D.
I have to pretty much agree with FreezerMike on this one.

Both starting safeties (Polamalu, and the other guy, can't remember the name) are out, along with Hines Ward and Cedric Wilson. The Steelers starting receivers.
The Steelers run game has been horrid this year. Ben looks human with a real pass rush and decent coverage. The big thing is the Browns actually getting pressure. Their special teams has been as well.
As for the Browns, their run game has been horrid, but has kicked up a bit last week out of nowhere. Anderson's best weapon is his ability to pump fake. KC was caught off guard by that throughout the game with him in. The shuffle passes, flea flickers, and the direct snap to cribbs all got the team motivated, the offense moving, and kept KC on their heals. All this with Winslow not catching a pass until the overtime period.
Throw in the fact that Anderson is 6'6, 230 pounds, he can stand his own in the pocket. Can look over the line, and has a stance about him that exudes confidence. A blitz happy Steeler team will look a lot less menacing when he can see over the line to find the open man in the weakened coverage caused by the blitz.
The Steelers are going to give up points like they did in the '02-'03 playoff game. Once you stretch the defense on them, they become predictable and the underneath stuff opens up greatly. Blown blitz packages and bad rushes result in big plays. The big issue in this game is if the Browns D can hold their own against a talented by unpolished Santonio Holmes and rather stable but also rather unknown Nate Washington. Both are good receivers, but any type of pressure of Ben will nullify it.
That's the key of the game. How well they can rush the passer without overstepping to give Parker a chance to actually eat up some yardage.
Should be a great game. 17-degrees, 22mph wind, chance of snow showers throughout the evening. It's Browns-Steelers weather.

Nice to see our receivers will never get sick, since they can't catch a DAM THING!!! Congrats steelers.
