This Sunday, the game counts. The Cleveland Browns will kick off the 2018 NFL regular season by hosting the Pittsburgh Steelers. An AFC North rivalry is renewed for another season.
The new-look Browns will kick off what they hope to be a season of change with a chance to exercise some demons. The last time they took the field in a regular season game was against the Steelers and it was a loss for Cleveland.
It wasn’t just any loss though as this one hurt more than others. The Browns were trying to avoid the dreaded 0-16 mark and they had a chance late in the game.
