Steelers visit the Browns at the Dog Pound Sunday Night

They say winning a game at the Dog Pound is one of the hardest things to accomplish in football.

And since we love to see the best of the best duke it out, we'll be hoping for that exactly when the Steelers visit the Browns at the Dog Pound as the 2008-09 NFL football season resumes this Sunday night.

Sunday Night Football will sure feature a defensive struggle between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns. Both teams still have one of the best defensive schemes in the league and while that defense won the Steelers a game against the Texans last week, the same can't be said of the Browns, who lost to the high-flying Cowboys 28-10.

STILL, it is well documented that Cleveland Browns Stadium is still one of the toughest places to win a football game and I don't expect those guys to drop another game at the Dog Pound for the second straight week.

The Steelers are entering the season with questions on their offensive line. They have two new starters there who were not that very good in protecting Ben Roethlisberger the past two seasons.

Roethlisberger was sacked twice by Mario Williams last week but still managed to hold on to win the game. They were also fortunate enough to have 183 yards rushing as runningback Willie Parker helped his team at the offensive end to beat Houston.

However, they will be visiting the Dog Pound this Sunday night and poor pass protection OBVIOUSLY won't win games there. Pick the Cleveland Browns to beat Ben Roethlisberger and his Pittsburgh Steelers by a field goal.
