His 51-yard run on third-and-13 set up a Chris Boswell field goal. A half-dozen Cleveland defenders had a shot at him before the seventh brought him down.

  • Team rushing: 200 yards, 160 of them in the first half
  • Sacks: Steelers sacked Deshaun Watson eight times
  • Streak: 23rd straight regular-season win over Browns at Acrisure
