First Call: When Cleveland Juju appears; Steeler-Browns, Super Bowl odds revealed


About an hour ago

Our first “first” of 2021 draws on a familiar Steelers theme: opposing teams mocking Juju Smith-Schuster.

The Browns appeared to do so after a win over the Steelers on Sunday.

Meanwhile, TJ Watt draws high praise from another NFL legend. Sunday’s Browns-Steelers gambling line is over for the match again. And the Robert Morris hockey team got off to a hot start.


Early favorites

Ds Dios has already posted for the Steelers-Browns game on Sunday night.

Odshark have the Steelers as a 3.5-point favorite for Round 3 at Heinz Field.

Tee kto. While they were a 3-point favorite in Pittsburgh on the 18th, the Stilters beat the spread both times 38-37 against Brown. Then, on Sunday, Stevero was under 10-points in Cleveland. But they lost 24-22.

The Steelers have covered two consecutive weeks after failing to do so for four consecutive weeks, before last week’s upset win against the Indianapolis Colts.

Meanwhile, the Caesar Sportsbook by William Hill has the Steelers at +2000 to win the Super Bowl. The Browns are at +5000. Kansas City Chiefs are +180.


Jabbing Juju

After Browse beat the Steelers on Sunday, some members of his team mocked the Steelers’ masquerade celebration in the locker room last week.

In particular, with a shot at the huge receiver Juju Smith-Schuster.

Cleveland linebacker McKill Wilson took to Instagram Live with his fellow dancers to dance to Smith-Schuster’s song “Cave Corvette Corvette”.

Keep in mind, the Steelers raised some eyebrows from the league when Smith-Schuster and Ray-Ray McCloud Day celebrated a maskless dance to that tune by beating the Indianapolis Colts to make the AFC North clinic last week. Head coach Mike Tomley said the franchise had heard from the league about a possible Covid-19 violation but did not specifically mention any discipline at the time.

Wilson went out of his way to put on a mask before celebrating.


Ting Bing TJ

Bruce Smith, the sacked record holder of the NFL, thinks that TJ Watt has the best chance of any active player when it comes to tracking his SSC record.

He made the remarks to TMZ Sports, claiming that Watt “now we want to see because he is young.”

He has 49.5 sacks in his first four years as a Vatt Pro. It’s the NFL. (1985-88) five more than Smith (44.5) in his first four years.

Smith finished with 200 sacks in 19 years. Former steeler Kevin Green – third on the all-time bag list – praised Watt in a final interview before his untimely death last month.


Sad quack on no

The New York Giants, running after Barclays, were like watching a Sunday night football game.

Penn State Products wanted to know why the Philadelphia Eagles included a net Sudfeld સામાન્ય usually a third-string quarterback વ in a close game against Washington Washington.

It was Sudfeld’s first game action since the 17th week of the 2018 season.

The Eagles were just 17-14 below Washington in the fourth quarter at the time. And the Eagles needed to beat the Giants to win the division. Otherwise, if Washington wins Washington, they will claim NFC East 7-9.

Which eventually led to a final score of 20-14.

And New York fans were outraged by the decision to give the bench to Jalen Hurtz. He was the only 7 in 20 who passed for 72 yards with a touchdown, but a pair of 34-yard touchdowns on eight carry.

Sudfield was no better, kicked twice and threw the barrier with just five perfections in 12 attempts.

So you can see why Barkley and the rest of the big New York metro area were hot.


Control those tigers

The Robert Morris men’s hockey team has continued its hot start.

Immigrants turned RIT over the weekend. They won Saturday’s game 3-1. They then doubled down and beat the Tigers 4-3 on Sunday.

RMU is now 8-3, and two of those losses are to seventh-ranked Bowling Green. Coach Derek Scully’s club plays Niagara three times a week on Thursdays in New York, followed by Saturdays and Sundays on Neville Island. This is the best start for the immigrants since they were 7-1-3 in 2014-15.
