Steelers vs. Browns final score, reults: Jacoby Brissett, Nick Chubb power Cleveland past Pittsburgh – Sporting News

0

After last week’s late-game meltdown against the Jets, Browns fans could be forgiven for not feeling comfortable with its team having another two-score lead with two minutes remaining,.

Steelers kicker Chris Boswell booted a 34-yard field goal with 1:48 left to cut the Browns’ advantage to six points, which meant an onside kick was coming. Though the play was a bit too close for comfort, Cleveland recovered.

The Steelers eventually got one last play on offense from their 4 with nine seconds to go. A fumbled lateral resulted in an extra Cleveland touchdown for good measure. The Browns won the AFC North clash 29-17 and took sole possession of first place in the division.

Fill-in Browns quarterback Jacoby Brissett looked formidable against the Steelers. He peppered the defense with shots across the field. He connected seven times with receiver Amari Cooper for 101 yards and a first-quarter touchdown. He hit tight end David Njoku nine times for 89 yards and a second-quarter touchdown.

And then there was Nick Chubb. The Browns running back consistently powered through the Steelers’ defense; he finished with 23 carries, 113 yards and a fourth-quarter touchdown that pushed Cleveland’s advantage to 23-14 with 9:29 remaining.

Cleveland’s defense did the rest. After looking shaky against Joe Flacco and the Jets, the unit held the Steelers to just a pair of touchdowns in the second quarter and the Boswell field goal.
