The Steelers? Losing to the Browns? With a rookie QB drafted late in Day 3? That’s right folks, the Steelers are such a terrible team offensively that Dorian Thompson-Robinson out performed Kenny Pickett and led a game winning drive for Cleveland.
Don’t get me wrong, DTR didn’t play good. But he had virtually no help in what was an all around drop fest. However, he did ENOUGH. And doing enough includes leading us down field to kick the game winning field goal off of some really nice tight window passes. I don’t think he’s quite NFL ready yet, but he’s showing improvement.
The Browns defense did what it’s done all season long. Myles Garrett terrorized Kenny Pickett, the Steelers plays were predictable and shut down. Jaylen Warren of the Steelers had Pittsburghs line big play of the game, ripping off a huge rushing touchdown right after half time.
Jerome Ford of the Browns didn’t get much going, but I love how confident the team is going in to games with him. He’s not Nick Chubb, but he’s very good. I smell a 1000 year season coming for the young back. When Chubb returns, we now know we yet again have a two headed monster at RB regardless of what happens with Kareem Hunt.
