PITTSBURGH, Pa. -- Scribbles in my Cleveland Browns notebook after their 27-24 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday:
1. The Browns finished the season at 1-15, and they "earned" the record. Those are the words of Hue Jackson. I can second-guess the Browns coach about some play calls and a few other things. But that's like complaining about the paint job and a few dents in the bumper of a scooter -- when that scooter is supposed to win a race against a Corvette.
2. The Browns played extremely hard. They really did want to win this game.
