The Browns lost 27-6 at Pittsburgh, and the run defense is the big worry
The 5AM Lakewood team
If you watched Sunday, you know how it went. Pittsburgh beat the Browns 27-6 to take first place in the AFC North at 6-2, and Cleveland fell to 5-3. The Steelers sacked Deshaun Watson eight times, and the Browns didn't score a touchdown for the first time this season.

The bigger worry is the run defense. Pittsburgh ran for 200 yards, 143 of them from Jaylen Warren, a week after Tennessee also gashed Cleveland on the ground. Browns beat reporter Mary Kay Cabot said teams are "throwing trap plays at them." Mike Polk Jr. asks if it's still a rivalry.
