The Cleveland Browns improved to 7-3 and 5-1 at Home with a 13-10 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers today. It was once again a strong mix of defense and placekicking that paved the way to the victory. Dustin Hopkins, who has been dynamite all season hit a game winning 34-yard Field Goal with 2 seconds left to hand the Browns the win. This is the second straight week Hopkins hit a game winner over a bitter rival, as he nailed one last week to take out Baltimore.
This was also the second week in a row, the Cleveland Browns had a different quarterback lead a last second game winning drive as DTR went 4 for 5, for 39 yards to put them in field goal position. It was truly 4 for 4 as one was a spike. It was a nice ending to a shaky day for Dorian Thompson Robinson as he finished 24 of 43 with 0 touchdowns and a pick. A win is a win, and Cleveland fans will take it, but the Browns still need an answer at quarterback.
His main targets were Elijah Moore with 6 catches for 60 yards, and David Njoku who dropped a couple, but still finished with 56 yards on 7 catches. Amari Cooper was clutch as always with several key catches late, Cooper finished with 34 yards on 4 catches.
The Browns defense dominated Kenny Pickett all game, holding the sophomore sensation to 106 yards on 15 of 28 passing. Quite frankly, the only Steeler that provided any spark on offense was Jaylen Warren who went for 129 yards on the ground, on only 9 carries including a 77-touchdown run to open the second half.
The Browns rebounded from an early blown safety call that should have spotted them a 2-0 lead, to strike first on a Jerome Ford touchdown run. The run was called short of the goal line, but coach Stefanski used a challenge to make it count and hand the Browns a 7-0 lead with 4:38 to go in the first quarter. The drive was the result of 7 play 50-yard drive to spot them the lead.
The Browns added a Dustin Hopkins 25-yard Field Goal before half to take a 10-0 lead into the locker room. The Steelers struck back on the earlier mentioned Warren touchdown run, and then tied it with 7:44 left in the game on a Boswell 28-yard field goal.
