Questionable coaching and terrible offense doomed the Browns last night.  Romeo Crennel’s time management was some of the worst in recent memory as he tried to come into Herman Edwards’ class of ineptness screwing up at the end of the first half and the end of the game.  Derek Anderson completed 18 of 32 passes for 166 yards with 2 pickoffs in this game.  Jamal Lewis got his work in but that was about it for him.  Lewis carried the ball 19 times for 38 yards (2.0 ypc) and he also caught 3 passes for 28 yards (9.3 avg).  Kellen Winslow was one of the only players on offense that looked like he wanted to beat the Steelers as he caught 7 passes for 55 yards (7.5 avg).  Braylon Edwards had another game of dropping the football at will as he caught 3 passes for 32 yards (10.7 avg).  The Browns finished up with only 53 yards rushing on 25 carries (2.1 ypc) and they also completed 18 of 32 passes for 155 yards.

The Browns’ Defense played good enough to win last night.  Safety Michael Adams (8 tackles) and DE Corey Williams (8 tackles, 1/2 sack) led the way for the defense last night.  But, NT Shaun Rogers was inspired as he made 6 tackles and had a sack.  He pummeled Ben Roethlisberger and Willie Parker on a lot of plays last night.  The Steelers finished up with 117 yards rushing on 31 carries (3.8 ypc) and they also completed 12 of 19 passes for 164 yards.  The Browns are now 0-2 on the season and Romeo Crennel is now 0-7 against the rival Pittsburgh Steelers.
