The Steelers beat the Browns 23-9, outscoring Cleveland 14-6 in the second half to pull away and win their first AFC North game.
Despite the Browns staying turnover-free for the second consecutive week, they struggled to use their possessions to get into the end zone. K Andre Szmyt made all three field goals he attempted, scoring all nine Browns points.
Here are 10 key numbers from the Browns' Week 6 AFC North loss to Pittsburgh.
0 – The number of sacks the Browns' defense had. Cleveland was held without a sack for the second time this season. The Browns recorded three quarterback hits against Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers, not getting to him in time to sack him before the throw. In Week 6 according to NFL Next Gen Stats, Rodgers took an average of 2.73 seconds before he threw the football, forcing Cleveland to get to him quick.
1 – In CB Tyson Campbell's debut after being acquired on Oct. 8, he recorded a forced fumble on the first play from scrimmage. Steelers TE Darnell Washington was open, catching the pass and running for 36 yards, but Campbell punched the ball out. The ball rolled out of bounds before Campbell could recover, giving the Steelers the ball at the Browns 27-yard line. Campbell added five tackles and two passes defensed against Pittsburgh.
3 – The Browns managed to get into the red zone three times against the Steelers. On the first red zone possession, Cleveland entered the red zone with half a minute left in the first half, trying to get a touchdown before the break. The Browns managed to get as close as the Steelers 11-yard line before settling for a field goal to go into halftime down 9-3.
The other two red zone trips came in the fourth quarter. Following a defensive pass interference penalty on Steelers CB Brandin Echols, the Browns had the ball at the Pittsburgh 3-yard line with their best chance to score a touchdown. However, an incompletion on first down, a sack on second down and another incompletion on third down ended the drive. The final time the Browns reached the red zone was with two minutes left in the game. QB Dillon Gabriel tried to pass the ball to a receiver on all four downs but only one connected with his target, a 4-yard gain to WR Jamari Thrash. After the completion and three incompletions, the Browns turned the ball over on downs, and the Steelers knelt the game out.
8 – The Steelers' defense had eight passes defensed against Cleveland, playing tight coverage throughout the game. Gabriel finished the game with a 55.7 percent completion percentage.
9 – LB Devin Bush led the Browns in tackles with nine against the Steelers. Bush led the team with seven solo tackles and two tackles for loss.
