CLE won. Both times. And it's PIT's own fault they 'pissed down their legs,' though I'd use much stronger language than that for what they did in that first Q. But the final score quite undeniably says that CLE owned PIT in that game.
Though, for the record, I didn't predict they'd win the second one. Just that they could. i actually said a couple times that CLE would probably lose on Sunday. Glad to be wrong. [Reply]

Cleveland scored TDs on many of those turnovers. To say Cleveland did nothing special while assuming Pittsburgh completely lost the game is disingenuous. [Reply]

they're probably still in the "IT'S FULL OF STARS!!!!" mode.
Pleasantly surprised. I clicked through to one of their forums earlier and was greeted with a massive inferiority complex, between the top several threads and many posts. Chiefs are underestimating us, national media still hates us, Steelers gave us no credit..... it was worse than this place prior to Mahomes. :-)
Nice to see some level headed individuals stop by. [Reply]

Though it hardly matters now, I think CLE scored a TD on every PIT T/O.
The Browns of old, the "Browns is the Browns" team would've mucked that up. They would've only scored on 1 or 2 of them, FG probably, and somehow managed to give the ball back to PIT the other 3 times.
The Browns of old would've knocked that first T/O out the back of the EZ, instead of falling on it for a TD.
No, PIT might've gifted CLE with 4 extra possessions, but CLE executed their offense and found a way to score TDs off them. Just about every time, if not every time.
The old Browns wouldn't have been able to do that. Not ever. [Reply]
