What happened near the end of the game Thursday night was huge for the Browns in their 13-6 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers at Cleveland Browns Stadium.

And what occurred afterwards was significant, too, at least according to one Brown.

When veteran linebacker David Bowens knocked down Ben Roethlisberger’s pass for former Ohio State wide receiver Santonio Holmes on a fourth-and-6 play from the Cleveland 39 with 1:39 left, it virtually clinched the win for the Browns.

It might have done more.

“It was like, ‘I got it, I got it,’ but then I didn’t get it. If I would have caught it, then I would have taken it back for a touchdown,” Bowens said.

That would have given Cleveland a 20-6 lead and sealed the deal for sure, but Bowens wasn’t that upset.

“The main thing was that we stopped them and got the ball back,” he said.

Bowens was just relieved the Browns had halted the Steelers’ 12-play, 40-yard drive that consumed 4:33. As the Steelers were marching, he kept having flashbacks to the Nov. 22 game at Detroit, when the Browns, after going ahead 37-31 with a TD with 5:44 left, proceeded to let the Lions march 88 yards in 10 plays covering 1:46 to score the game-winning TD on an untimed play after the clock had expired. The Browns’ Hank Poteat was called for pass interference in the end zone as time ran out, and the Lions, working from the Cleveland 1, scored on a pass and then kicked the extra point to escape with a 38-37 decision.

“That Detroit game was fresh in my mind the whole time,” Bowens said. “Before the fourth-down play, I kept telling everybody, ‘Finish! Finish!’ ”

And finish the Browns did, ending a 12-game losing streak to the Steelers dating back to 2003, halting a seven-game losing streak this year, and ending a club-record 10-game home losing streak.

The euphoric Browns celebrated, but most of the Steelers didn’t stick around to watch it. As soon as Holmes was tackled at the Pittsburgh 14 following a three-yard punt return as time ran out, the Steelers trotted – some even sprinted – to their locker room. It was interesting watching big offensive linemen who hadn’t moved their feet fast enough all night to protect Roethlisberger sufficiently (see below), suddenly found the energy to race each other like gazelles to the locker room.Bowens wasn’t happy about it.

“I didn’t like it at all,” he said. “After every game this year, including all the ones we’ve lost, I’ve stayed out there and tried to show good sportsmanship by congratulating the guys on the other team.

“But the Steelers didn’t do that. I don’t know if it was because of the cold and they wanted to get to the locker room and warm up, or if they were just upset that they lost. I know, though, that I’m a little edgy about it.”

Indeed, and it had been a long time since the Browns had had an edge on anyone, including the Steelers

I noticed, hell, I couldn't help but notice. Ryan did a good job preparing the D to tackle Ben. That was exactly the way to do it. Not sure why other teams haven't caught on....They'll watch the Browns tape now and everyone will do it now.

Not only did you beat us, but you exposed Ben's weakness...thanks

Some of it may have had to do with BR. In the past, he always seemed to wriggle out of those situations and end up making a big play. I don't know if the Browns were just tackling much surer than they used to, or whether or not BR was not able to do what he used to do because of either the cold, the concussions he has suffered, the achilles heel problem he had earlier, or what. Whatever it was, it was good to see.

Did anyone notice that we seemed to change our strategy for tackling ben? We tackled much lower than in previous games. At one point someone grabbed ben around the knee and when he tried to get loose our guy simply twisted a little bit and ben went down like a small QB.

Good observation! Isn't it amazing what happens when the necessary adjustments are made?

they were terrified that they, too, would end up with frosted split ends like Pollymoomoo was getting...

I saw some views on TV where half the team was huddled around the heaters, not really even paying attention to the game. Hard to believe that the so called rough tough Steelers let a little cold get to them, but it really, apparently did.

I'll give him this, he's a lot more humbler in defeat than most of his counterparts. Which isn't saying too much, considering as most of the Steelers' trolls on here spew nothing but excrement from their fingers every time the enter our forum.

In case you can't understand that hardy har har, I'll clarify it for you. You. Are. Full. Of. Shit
