Here’s my take on the Steelers’ 28-10 victory against the Denver Broncos on Monday night. 1. The defending champs showed flashes of their Super Bowl form in recent weeks, but they came at home.

Here’s my take on the Steelers’ 27-14 victory on Sunday afternoon. 1. Another beatable opponent -- the Browns are the fourth-best team in Ohio behind the Cincinnati Bengals, Ohio State University and the University of Cincinnati -- another game that was closer than it should have been.
