Steelers vs. Browns 2016 live stream
In fact, heading into the fourth quarter, the Browns trailed the Steelers 17-12, the Bills led the Jets 19-17, and the Titans trailed the Colts 27-24. Pettine went 10-22 during his two-year stint with Cleveland, losing 18 of his final 21 games.
Browns owner Jimmy Haslam has made a decision to fire Pettine, NFL Network reported Sunday morning, citing multiple unnamed sources. Brandon Marshall, however, hauled in two passes for 58 yards and a touchdown on the ensuing drive to keep the Jets alive.
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (7) throws a pass against the Denver Broncos during the first half at Heinz Field. That came three plays after Roethlisberger threw his second interception of the day, which linebacker Craig Robertson returned 38 yards to the Steelers’ 9.
Defense makes big plays, holds their ground in the red-zone – Thanks to the Steelers defense making plays when they needed them, the Steelers were able to cling to a 14-9 halftime lead and much of that can be credited to the Steelers red zone defense. This even though he missed four full games and a fifth start. It’s not always going to be the sacks and easy plays.
I had the headline all prepared: “Unexcused absence”, and then I was going to add other stuff about the Steelers missing the playoffs in 2015 and how the early-season injuries and suspensions shouldn’t be used as a crutch after having control in their own hands as recently as last Sunday.
New York Jets defensive end Muhammad Wilkerson (96) is helped off the field during the second half of an NFL football game against the Buffalo Bills, Sunday, Jan. 3, 2016, in Orchard Park, N.Y.
Pittsburgh went 4-1 against the Browns, Indianapolis Colts, Oakland Raiders and New England Patriots.
And if Roethlisberger continues completing passes to the guys in the wrong-color helmets, the Cinderella Steelers won’t be at the ball very long.
The Dolphins (6-10), finished their seventh straight season out of the playoffs. This is his third game with them.
If the Bengals do not earn a first-round bye, they will host the AFC North division rival Steelers in the first round. He made the late-season speed bump in Baltimore irrelevant.
Williams broke off a 6-yard run on the left side before he was tackled by Browns lineman John Hughes, who appeared to roll on the back of his leg. PROBABLE: S Will Allen (not injury related), CB Antwon Blake (back), CB William Gay (not injury related), LB James Harrison (illness), TE Heath Miller (not injury related), S Mike Mitchell (shoulder), QB Ben Roethlisberger (illness), LB Ryan Shazier (not injury related), TE Matt Spaeth (not injury related). Would love to see them in the playoffs where they choke. But Williams’ availability for Wild Card Weekend is up in the air.
The Cowboys (4-12) had a merciful end to one of the worst seasons in franchise history.
There is no such thing as a “Sixth Seed Playoff” hat or jersey to wear or market, and there will be none of those trinkets this side of the AFC championship.
Houston clinched the AFC South with its victory over Jacksonville and will host Kansas City after the Chiefs beat Oakland for their 10th consecutive victory. Surely Ryan and his Bills could use some nice, warm Hestra Heli Gloves or such to get them through the rest of the Buffalo winter. Texans wide receiver Nate Washington injured his hip, while Jaguars wide receiver Neal Sterling was being evaluated for a concussion. But they will go into the offseason on a high note, after beating the Falcons for the second time this season.
CHICAGO – If this becomes the final game with Detroit for Calvin Johnson and the final game with Chicago for Matt Forte, they both gave their fans something to remember.
