Steelers stunned by Browns, 13-6
The Pittsburgh Steelers saw their playoff hopes evaporate into thin air in a stunning, 13-6 road loss to the hapless Cleveland Browns on a very chilly night by the Lake.
For whatever reason, Pittsburgh could not get their offense untracked against a Cleveland defense that isn’t highly regarded.
Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger struggled all night to find open receivers and was sacked eight times.
The running game was effective at times but the Steelers elected to go with a more passing oriented attack.
The Steelers now have nothing left this year but pride to play for and the chance to be a spoiler for other playoff contenders.
