With Big Ben aging and defenders leaving, are the Pittsburgh Steelers falling apart and falling behind the Browns? Gotta Watch The Tape

The Pittsburgh Steelers lost defenders like Bud Dupree and Mike Hilton this offseason, and then kept quarterback Ben Roethlisberger as he approaches 40. Given how things are going in Pittsburgh, are the Browns pulling away from the Steelers?

On this Gotta Watch The Tape from cleveland.com, Ellis Williams, Scott Patsko and Doug Lesmerises continue to break down teams in the AFC North through the lens of the Browns. This time, Ellis starts the episode with a look at the Pittsburgh defense, how it has become top-heavy and lost depth, and whether the Browns have figured out a way to best attack the Steelers' defensive plan. Then Scott looks at the Pittsburgh offense, where Roethlisberger is limited in the style he can play, there are two big potential losses on the offensive line, and running back needs a lift, because things clearly aren't working in the run game.

Catch up with the Steelers and how the Browns should view them. Thanks for listening to Gotta Watch the Tape.
