The Week 17 matchup against Pittsburgh has become a Browns tradition unto itself, and not the good kind.
ARLINGTON, Texas – Kirk Cousins passed for three touchdowns and Washington, the NFC East champion, closed out the regular season by rolling past Dallas. The contests have not gone Cleveland’s way.

Roethlisberger was voted into the Pro Bowl for the fourth time in his career, but if there is one criticism of his game this season it’s his high interception rate. We will learn the answers to all those questions in the coming months. He reported for work and was sent home by coach Mike Tomlin…. Will Connor Cook/Paxton Lynch/Christian Hackenberg/Jared Goff force a smile in the spring as Roger Goodell hands him a hat with a picture of a different form of headwear on it?

It is believed Jeff Fisher of St. Louis is safe, despite failing to coach the Rams to one winning season after four years. That ties last year’s National Football League record.
