Pittsburgh Steelers

Lost at Cleveland Browns, 24–27 · now 2–2

Say this

“Did you see that ludicrous display in Cleveland on Thursday? Back from 21–10 down to tie it, then a 56-yard field goal with ten seconds left.”

If they reply

“Rodgers threw three touchdowns, though.”
“Three touchdowns, two interceptions. The second one on the last snap they had. You can’t build a house on that.”
“They came back to tie it, mind.”
“From 21–10 down, yes. Rodgers ran the two-point conversion in himself. Then they let Szmyt try a 56-yarder with ten seconds left. Which he made.”
“Well, the Browns are 3–1 now.”
“Which tells you everything about the Browns and nothing about the Steelers. Or the other way round. I haven’t decided.”

If you’re stuck

“The thing about the Steelers is they only really start playing once they’ve had a good long look at the scoreboard. Nothing in the third quarter, fourteen in the fourth.”

Bluff difficulty: 3/5 — Moderate. Everyone saw the ending.
