Can the Clowns finish off the Squealers? Or will they crumple down the stretch?

Watching a little Thursday Night Football, Browns vs. Steelers.

Browns are dominating the Steelers, blanking them on the score board; till the Refs rear their ugly little head. 4 straight pass interference calls puts Pittsburgh on the 3 next play TD, making it a 1 score game in Cleveland. 
Worse call of the bunch, Steelers Tight End trucks a browns cb, (ie. alters his route to make contact with the defender, gives him a forearm shove to make sure he is open) errant thrown by "Not Rothensberger", can only be saved by a horrible defensive holding call.

When a scoring drive contains more penalty yards than offensive yards, something is wrong. 

Reminds me of the 64 yard Maryland score against OSU, 45 of those yards came via the Refs, 15 of which came via a flex. (Which I witnessed happened 7 times in the LSU/'bama game with zero penalties.)

Myles Garrett may have just had his off-season begin.

Rudolph started it by trying to ripping at Garrett's helmet. Why was he still in? Tomlin told Rudolph that he as out, but Refs/New York let him stay. 

Garrett responded in just about the worse way possible. (If you didn't see it, Garrett in turn rips Rudolph's helmet off, when Rudolph comes after him, he whacks him in the head with his own helmet.)

Having flashbacks of when my younger brother whacked me across the head with a hockey stick on a pond,  I was out cold and a couple of my friends beat his arse.

That helmet whack is about as bad as Juan Marichal hitting Johnny Rosenboro with his bat.

Jail time or at least next season off w/o pay.And I'm a Browns fan and remember Joe Greene kicking Bob McKay in cajones and Dwight White trying to take off Kenny Stablers head with his arm cast,but he ended up seriously injuring himself on the play - which was kharmic.Garret ruined a great win and night with 8 fooking seconds left.Not only real dumb but real violent and Garret had some other incidents this season.Wouldn't doubt if the Steelers organization filed charges before leaving town

I've honestly never seen anything like that. Simply embarrassing as a Cleveland sports fan. What's incredibly odd is that it seems very out of character for Garrett. We have a group that we play basketball with a couple times a week and he's shown up a few times and been nothing but a really nice guy.  Simply no excuse for his reaction. Absolutely appalling.

Rudolph's agent stated today that nothing is off the table in terms of legal action.  I suspect that means if they feel the NFLs punishment is too soft, they will pursue legal recourse outside the league.

The targeting hit on Johnson was an asshat move as well.  JuJu was also hit helmet to helmet by 2 defenders, although in his case it looked unintentional.

If you asked Pittsburgh fans which team they would expect this type of game from, the answer would have been Cincinnati.

Not sure why Cleveland started this stuff.

Really don't want to see this rivalry turn into the type of games that highlighted the Steelers-Bengals era.

He'd have a stronger legal case, had he not tried to pull Garrett's helmet off first.
