The Cleveland Browns eliminated the Pittsburgh Steelers from the NFL playoffs with a 48-37 victory at Heinz Field last night in the AFC Wild Card round. It was the Browns first playoff win since 1995.
It was the most points ever given up by a Steelers team in the playoffs. Ben Roethlisberger was intercepted four times in the game. He threw for a Steelers post-season record of 501 yards, but most of that was after the Browns had built a 28-0 lead in the first quarter. He also threw the ball a team playoff record of 68 times.
