Here are some of my immediate gut reactions after the Pittsburgh Steelers broke their four-game losing streak in Week 11 against the winless Cleveland Browns. It was good to see a Steelers team that has struggled at the line of scrimmage for extended points throughout the season dominate at the…
The Pittsburgh Steelers will play the winless Cleveland Browns on the road Sunday in a game that could feature some poor weather conditions. Below are five Steelers players to watch closely against the Browns as all five could wind up being huge difference makers in this contest. Ladarius Green –…
Terrelle Pryor, a native of Jeannette, PA, which is about 30 miles outside of Pittsburgh, was a third-round pick in the supplementary draft of 2011. He went to the Raiders as a quarterback, and, once there, he even managed to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2013, authoring a 93-yard run,…
The Pittsburgh Steelers have now lost their last four games and will head into their Week 11 road game against the Cleveland Browns with a 4-5 record. The Steelers, however, opened as 8.5-point road favorites over the still winless Browns, according to VegasInsider.com. The Browns, who lost 28-7 Thursday night…
Yeah, this is going to be yet another article that begins with some variation of the notion that the Cleveland Browns are the Rodney Dangerfields of injuries and bad breaks this year, because it keeps being true. And when you get off to an 0-7 start to your season, that…
Although it is technically possible, it is difficult to imagine Browns head coach Hue Jackson’s first season in Cleveland go much worse than it has already gone through the first six games, losing each of those six games, and leaving in his wake a litter of injured players. It seems…
All four AFC North teams were in action Sunday and three of them lost. Thanks to the Pittsburgh Steelers being the lone AFC North team to win in Week 5, they’ll now enter Week 6 leading the division after they beat the New York Jets 31-13 Sunday at Heinz Field….
Sunday afternoon was probably the first time that former Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor lived up to all the potential that others saw in him entering the professional ranks, and he did it seemingly every which way, contributing as a wide receiver, runner, and quarterback, even though the Cleveland Browns…
The Baltimore Ravens were the only AFC North team to win on Sunday and as a result they will now enter Week 4 all alone at the top of the division with a perfect 3-0 record. Ravens kicker Justin Tucker kicked four field goals in Sunday’s 19-17 win over the…
If you’re feeling bad today about the fact that the Pittsburgh Steelers are 2-1 after they dropped a pitiful game yesterday evening to the Eagles in a 31-point loss, think of it this way: at least you’re not rooting for the Cleveland Browns. Though they managed to score 24 points,…
As if the Cleveland Browns’ inaugural season under new head coach Hue Jackson couldn’t get much worse, it was announced yesterday evening that their budding star first-round wide receiver Corey Coleman suffered a fractured hand during practice on Wednesday that will force him to miss an indefinite period of time….
As part of the course of my usual writing, I spend a reasonable amount of time reading the websites of the Pittsburgh Steelers’ AFC North rivalries, and at times I can’t help but notice how much they vary in tone and content. One thing that I have noticed in particular…
The Cleveland Browns, as most teams, are going to be playing their first game of the season later today, with the AFC North outcasts traveling toe Philadelphia to play the Eagles for their regular season debut. When they do so, they will be unveiling the latest remodel of a frequently-overhauled…
Cleveland Browns quarterback Robert Griffin III had an uneven preseason debut last week, but he looked much sharper last night, completing six of just eight pass attempts for 96 yards and two touchdowns, including a 50-yard touchdown to Terrelle Pryor. He also added 36 yards on three rush attempts. Both…
The Cleveland Browns debuted their new-look offense yesterday—or at least a decidedly vanilla flavoring of it, as this is, after all, the preseason—with quarterback Robert Griffin III under center, who led the unit for the team’s first two drives before giving way to the rest of the Brown’s four quarterbacks….
