Browns Troll Steelers Fan Who Promised to Delete Social Media Account With Loss

The Cleveland Browns social media team, like the rest of us, was waiting for a Pittsburgh Steelers fan to delete their social media account after promising to do so if the Browns beat the Steelers on Sunday.

They did just that, 13-6, and yet the account initially remained active on Monday morning, prompting this response:

The Steelers fan has since deleted their account, however.

While the Browns have continued to struggle since being reformed in 1999—shockingly, the team has never won an AFC North title since the division was formed in 2002—they tend to be a tough matchup for the Steelers.

The teams have split the season series in four straight years and the Steelers hold just a 9-7-1 advantage over the Browns since the 2018 campaign.

Sunday's loss was massive in particular for Pittsburgh, which would have clinched the AFC North title with a win. Instead, the Steelers will now play the Baltimore Ravens next Sunday night in a winner-take-all matchup, with the loser being eliminated from postseason contention.

And Pittsburgh will do so without star receiver DK Metcalf, serving the second part of his two-game suspension. So Cleveland's win on Sunday may have been about more than bragging rights—it also may have played a part in the Steelers choking away a divisional title for the second straight year.
