Steelers avoid losing season by beating Browns 24-10 in meaningless game
Associated Press
PITTSBURGH
Even at the end of a disappointing season, the Pittsburgh Steelers still know how to beat the Cleveland Browns.
Ben Roethlisberger threw three short touchdown passes, and the Steelers avoided their first losing season in nearly a decade with a 24-10 victory over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday.
Antonio Brown, Leonard Pope and Plaxico Burress scored for the Steelers (8-8), who mustered enough energy in a meaningless game to turn away the Browns. Pittsburgh’s top-ranked defense forced four turnovers as the Steelers won for just the second time in the last six weeks, a slide that knocked them out of the playoffs for the first time since 2009.

i am so sick and tired of watching the browns lose. haslam could have made changes much earlier in the season but he said he wouldn't make any until after the season. well haslam, thanks for the memories and making us sit through another tortureous season of browns football. they started a kid at quarterback who should have been playing all season. so, here we go again, we'll start all over with a new regime. as long as the fans keep stuffing their pockets with cash they don't care if the browns win or lose. for a team with so much tradition and legendary players this is sad. haslam, i'm 65 years old. how many "wait til next years do you think i have left?
