Losing a game against a terrible divisional rival is always a awful feeling. I'd imagine Steelers fans are feeling right now how I felt after losing to Mac Jones last year. Trap divisional games happen all the time. It friggin blows.
Thursday games are also entirely unfair to road teams. I guess this one isn't so bad because the teams are so close to each other, but I still don't think team should overreact to losing these matchups.

losing to a 2 or 3 win team is a Tomlin specialty, Steelers fans have had more than enough opportunities to get used to it, I'm still amazed they beat the Raiders earlier this season
Yeah I remember you all losing to the Cards and Pats in back to back weeks last year and being downright amazed that happened. Playing down to the competition always grinds my gears when the Bills do it.

As a fan watching on TV, these snow games are entertaining aesthetically to watch. Though, I wouldn't want to be there in the stands myself. Going to miss these games as more of these northern cities opt for a covered stadium to maximize event dates given the costs.

I think I’m like 3-8 in Steelers games this year, never get them right. To add to my misery, I played Harris for the first time all year and he crapped the bed, while my opponent picked up Warren off the crap heap and of course he’s the one that gets the six.

The standard is the standard. This loss is 100 percent Tomlin’s fault. Going for it on 4th down in between the 45s several times with the defense they have is mind blowingly stupid. Make them go the length of the field. How many short fields did they give them?
Don’t get me started on Tomlins clock management. He got out coached. Badly.

4th and inches I totally get going for. 4th and 2? Given the conditions probably should have punted.

not just going for it on 4th and 1, but I don't think I have ever seen a worse batch of 3rd & 1 and 4th & 1 plays in a game, other than the one pass Russ completed in the 4th, they were all awful, I know the Browns have a solid front 7 but as many cracks as they took at it to not be able to run for 1 yard is unreal

The Browns may be better than the Cowboys :laugh:
There's no doubt. Imagine if Watson had injured himself in camp and Winston was the starter all season. The Browns are probably a .500ish team fighting for a wildcard spot right now and wouldn't have sold off Cooper.

They threw away games to start the year playing a QB who absolutely sucked as a player and as a human.
