The Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Cleveland Browns 27-6, with the outcome driven by Pittsburgh’s defense. Yahoo Sports reports the Steelers sack Deshaun Watson eight times, and the win gives them first place in the AFC North.
Other outlets frame the game as part of a longer pattern between the two teams at home. The Winnipeg Free Press says the Steelers “bulldoze” the Browns and highlights that Pittsburgh extends its home winning streak over Cleveland to 23 straight. The Athletic similarly focuses on Steelers dominance at home against the Browns, pairing that context with the same defensive theme—Watson being sacked eight times—as the basis for taking the division lead.
