Because of Course: Steelers-Browns Tweetcap

by Ian

The Steelers started their season with a narrow victory over the Cleveland Browns. Ben Roethlisberger has now won more games at the Cleveland Municipal Sewage Treatment Facility than any other quarterback. The Steelers took an inordinate amount of penalties and struggled to get things going offensively when the ball wasn’t in Antonio Brown’s hands. Here’s a look back at the best tweets from today’s action.

Things got rolling quickly with the defense forcing a 3-and-out then Matakevich blocking a punt, which Chickillo recovered for a touchdown.

And then, when the offense took the field, it went into a shell.

With the offense doing nothing, the Browns were able to tie the game.

The offense was bad in the first half. Very, very bad.

Then the Steelers decided to try something novel: throwing to Antonio Brown

The Steelers would mount an offensive drive before the half and get on the board. The first offensive touchdown of the year was scored by…..Jesse James!

The defense was swarming all day. TJ Watt got his first career sack.

The Steelers were able to move into Browns territory on a pass interference call that Browns fans were shocked was pass interference. Then Jesse James scored again.

The defense was playing with a fire under their butts.

But of course, Road Ben.

The Browns got it back within 3 after a touchdown and a 2-point conversion where JJ Wilcox knocked himself out.

The Steelers got the ball back with under 4 minutes to go. Ben threw up a prayer to AB that somehow…well…he’s Antonio friggin’ Brown.

Le’Veon put the icing on the cake with his best run of the day.

And that was all she wrote.
