A few weeks ago, the Cleveland Browns shocked the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers by pulling off the upset against the storied franchise at Huntington Bank Stadium, which is something no one saw coming, even though these AFC North battles always seem to be close matchups regardless of the records of both teams.
On Sunday, Mike Tomlin and company got an opportunity to get some revenge against the visiting Browns at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, and that’s precisely what happened, as Cleveland couldn’t compete with one of the best all-around teams in the league.
In the end, it was a muffed punt by wide receiver Kadarius Toney that sealed the deal for the Steelers, as they recovered the football and rode the 13-point lead to a win, which turned out to be the 10th for them and the 10th loss for the Browns.
According to Camryn Justice of News 5 Cleveland, Steelers fans made the Browns hear it during this win in Pittsburgh, with chants of “Cleveland sucks” breaking out at Acrisure Stadium on Sunday.

As a result of this loss to the Steelers, the Browns have officially been eliminated from playoff contention in the AFC, which isn’t all that surprising with all that has happened to the franchise this season, as nothing has seemed to go right from Week 1 all the way up to this loss against Pittsburgh.
As for the Steelers, Pittsburgh continues to prove they are a legitimate Super Bowl title contender, as they’ve figured it out on both sides of the football and will be tough to beat during the upcoming NFL playoffs.
