As much as the Pittsburgh Steelers offense went smoothly for much of the day, there were still a lot of rough patches. While most of that came in the second half, during which the offense actually only managed to score three points, the issues came early and often.
And specifically, the issues came in the red zone. Pittsburgh saw four trips inside the red zone against the Browns today, but they only managed to get the ball into the end zone on one occasion—and that came at the end of the first half, with no time on the clock, after two consecutive defensive penalties that led to untimed plays.
