If you're still stinging from Sunday, you're not alone. The Steelers beat the Browns 27-6 in Pittsburgh and moved into first place in the AFC North at 6-2. Cleveland fell to 5-3. It was Pittsburgh's 23rd straight regular-season win over the Browns at Acrisure Stadium, tying an NFL record.
The Browns didn't score a touchdown for the first time this season and went scoreless in the second half. They managed a season-low 34 net rushing yards.
Deshaun Watson was sacked eight times, and he took the blame publicly for them, Cleveland.com reported. Defensive tackle Maliek Collins left with an elbow injury but said Monday he's fine and there's no reason to panic.
