Cleveland Browns vs. Pittsburgh Steelers NFL Week 4 Live Updates, Highlights and Analysis

The Browns get Pittsburgh pinned inside the one-yard line--and then promptly jump offside.

The Browns have five penalties for 40 yards--in a quarter.

End of the first.

This is not going well--at all.

A pretty 21-yard catch from rookie KC Concepcion winds up being for naught, because apparently the Steelers can't commit defensive pass interference even when they obviously do.

I blame those ugly uniforms.

Ball back to the Steelers, but pinned deep.

17 Plays. Eight first downs. 78 yards, And a 12-yard pop-pass from Aaron Rodgers to Roman Wilson.

If that's all Cleveland has defensively (Mason Graham is in the locker room) Thursday night, it's going to be a long evening.

The Browns get a Maliek Collins sack to force the Steelers into third-and-16.

And then committed three penalties on the next play--all of which were automatic first downs.

You cannot make this up.

NOOOOOOOOOO!

Defensive tackle Mason Graham was off to an outstanding start to his second NFL season--four sacks in three games after just half a sack in his rookie season.

After getting bent backward awkwardly in the first quarter Thursday, Graham hobbled to the blue medical tent.

The Browns are already struggling to pressure opposing quarterbacks. Losing Graham for an extended period would be a killer.

The Browns committed a penalty on the opening kickoff (because of course they did) and were backed up. Three plays later it's punt time.

And time for Corey Bojorquez to shine.

Bojorquez uncorked a 68-yarder (53 net yards) that flipped the field.

Don't care for them. Too much brown.

The atmosphere at Huntington Bank Field is off the chain.

Granted, not old Municipal Stadium off the chain, but still...

Amazing what a rivalry game in primetime when the Browns are actually relevant can do.

Three keys to a Cleveland victory in Week 4.

Don't Beat Yourself: It goes without saying that turnovers are the kiss of death. But the Browns are also the AFC's most-penalized team after three games. Todd Monken has to get that cleaned up.

Run the Damn Ball: The Browns are averaging just 87.7 yards per game on the ground—fourth-worst in the NFL. Quinshon Judkins is averaging three yards a carry. The Browns have to get the run game going.

Make Aaron Rodgers Uncomfortable: He may be old, but he's still Aaron Rodgers. Let him sit in a clean pocket and go through his reads, and he's going to find somebody open. The Browns need to heat Rodgers up and disrupt his rhythm.

Hope can be a dangerous thing for Browns fans.

But the Browns are 11-1 all-time in Thursday night games. At home, they are a perfect 4-0.

Meanwhile, the Steelers have played in six Thursday night games since 2020—and won once.

The Browns have also dominated this rivalry at home in recent years—over the last eight meetings with the Steelers in Cleveland, the Browns are 6-1-1.

I'm not saying. I'm just saying.
