The Pittsburgh Steelers topped the Cleveland Browns 34-21 in a decisive Week 4 clash, enhancing their momentum in the 2026 season. The stakes were high as both teams vied for positioning in the competitive AFC North, but it was Pittsburgh that showcased their offensive firepower to secure the victory.
Drew Allar was the standout performer for the Steelers, throwing for an impressive 346 yards and four touchdowns, demonstrating precision and poise throughout the game. DK Metcalf was his favorite target, hauling in 169 receiving yards while also contributing 40 rushing yards, proving his versatility and playmaking ability. Together, they formed a potent combination that the Browns’ defense struggled to contain.
Defensively, the Steelers made key plays that shifted the momentum in their favor. Daylen Everette's two interceptions were crucial, halting Cleveland's drives at critical moments. The turning point came late in the second quarter when Everette picked off a pass deep in Steelers territory, allowing Pittsburgh to extend their lead and ultimately control the game.
