CLEVELAND Ben Roethlisberger plays for the Steelers. He owns the BrownsPittsburgh's quarterback, whose long term loyalty to the team he led to two Super Bowl titles was recently questioned, threw two touchdown passes and raised his career record to a mind numbing 16 1 against Cleveland as the Steelers beat the Browns 27 11 to continue their unexpected turnaround after a 0 4 startRoethlisberger completed 22 of 34 passes for 217 yards and didn't get sacked once as the Steelers (5 6) won their third straight game and became a little more relevant in the AFC playoff race. With the win, Pittsburgh set up an important Thanksgiving matchup with the Baltimore Ravens (5 6), perhaps their biggest rival and a team they're fighting for a wild card spotA season that began with four consecutive losses and included speculation that Roethlisberger might ask for a trade and whether it was time for the Steelers to rebuild, has been revived"That's looking back," Roethlisberger said when asked about the team's rough start. "I'm not looking back and I'm not looking forward. Right now, I'm enjoying this."
The Steelers forced four turnovers, recorded five sacks, knocked Browns starting quarterback Jason Campbell from the game with a concussion and improved to 25 5 against Cleveland since 1999Roethlisberger threw a 41 yard touchdown pass to Antonio Brown in the first and connected on a 4 yarder to Emmanuel Youth Bobby Orr Jersey Sanders in the third, one play after Steelers cornerback William Gay blasted Campbell on a blitz and forced a fumble that Will Allen returned 49 yardsThe Steelers didn't have a turnover, only two penalties and scored 17 points off Cleveland miscues"We are playing winning football," said safety Troy Polamalu, who stripped Browns running back Chris Ogbonnaya late in the first half, when the Steelers scored 10 quick points to open a 13 3 halftime leadGay and Allen combined to set up Roethlisberger's short TD pass to Sanders and Gay put the Browns (4 7) away by intercepting Brandon Weeden and returning it 21 yards for a touchdown in the fourth quarterThe Steelers are back to looking like themselves after going 2 6 in the season's first half, but coach Mike Tomlin doesn't want his team to rest now"Nice accomplishment," Tomlin said, opening his postgame news conference. "But not a lot of time to admire our work."
Here are five things we learned in watching the Steelers beat the Browns for the 18th time in 20 gamesCAMPBELL CONCUSSED: Campbell was unsteady as he wobbled to the sideline and had to be driven to Cleveland's locker room after taking the hard hit from Allen, who appeared to get away with a blow to the quarterback's headCampbell went 14 of 22 for 124 yards before going out. It's hard to imagine him being cleared in time to play next week against Jacksonville. Campbell went out for one play in the first half after aggravating a rib injuryHEAD HUNTING? Gay's shot on Campbell will certainly draw close inspection from the league. TV replays show Gay, who came in untouched off the edge on a blitz, banging Campbell's helmet and facemask with his left hand, causing the quarterback to fumbleBrowns coach Rob Chudzinski argued for a personal foul"I felt like he was hit in the head on that," Chudzinski said. "They (the officials) didn't feel that way."
GORDON'S GRABS: On an otherwise miserable day, Browns wide receiver Josh Gordon provided some hopeGordon tied a team record with 14 catches and set a new mark with 237 yards receiving. Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome had the previous record of 191 yards in 1984While Gordon's numbers were impressive, the final score was the only thing on his mind"After taking a http://... loss like that, it means nothing," he said. "To me, it's great and everything for me as a young wide receiver to get that experience, but if we can't go out there and win, I don't really care about it."
PRISTINE PROTECTION: Roethlisberger left the field with his white jersey nearly as spotless as when he put it onHe wasn't sacked for the first time in 16 games as Pittsburgh's offensive line did a solid job in keeping the Browns away from No. 7. Roethlisberger was only hit twice"I appreciated them keeping him clean," Tomlin said. "They did a nice job."
BOO BIRDS: Weeden, who twice lost his starting job this season, was greeted by boos when he [url=http://www.footballredskins.com/Authentic-Robert-Griffin-Iii-Jersey]Robert Griffin III S Jersey entered the game. The second year pro said he wasn't fazed by the negativity, but several of his teammates defended him.
