The Browns faced the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday afternoon as the two 6-3 AFC football teams faced off against each other in an AFC North Division rivalry matchup.

Unfortunately for Cleveland Browns fans, this week has been particularly difficult, however it ended positively as the Browns were able to squeak out a 13-10 victory over the Steelers.

On Wednesday, Browns fans found out that starting quarterback Deshaun Watson would be unavailable for the rest of the season due to injury. 

Sadly, that was after Watson went 14-14 in the second half of the game against the Baltimore Ravens and the Cleveland Browns looked like a legitimate Super Bowl Contender for the first time in 33 years.

The Browns then named DTR the starter against the Steelers and here is what happened on Sunday afternoon.

The Browns got the only first half touchdown by either team in the first quarter. 

With 8:24 left in the first quarter, the Browns started their second drive of the game. On this drive, DTR led the Browns on a seven play 50-yard drive which culminated in a one-yard touchdown run by Jerome Ford.

 

The Browns then added a Dustin Hopkins field goal at the end of the first half as DTR drove the team down the field on a 17 play, 77-yard drive which took 5:24 off the clock.

In the first half DTR was 13-19 for 98 yards and most importantly no interceptions. 

The Steelers scored a quick touchdown at the start of the second half to make the score 10-7.

The Steelers also added a field goal midway through the fourth quarter to tie the game at 10-10.

DTR got the ball back with 1:18 left in the game and calmly led the Browns to a game winning  field goal by Dustin Hopkins with two seconds remaining in the game to give the Browns a 13-10 victory.

 

With the victory, the Browns move to 7-3 on the season and they are now in second place by a few percentage points behind the 8-3 Baltimore Ravens.

The Browns next play the Denver Broncos on Sunday November 26.
