The Steelers didn't save their season Sunday by beating the charitable Browns, 13-6, at Cleveland Browns Stadium.
But they did bring it up from the bottom of Lake Erie -- covered in dirt and sludge, but still breathing.
Maybe the smell isn't as bad as it was before the game, but when you wipe away the mud and grime from this team and its precarious situation in the AFC North, you see little has changed.
The Steelers (4-7) won for the second time in three weeks. Still, for all the sweat, blood and twisted ligaments left behind, the Steelers remained two games behind the Baltimore Ravens and Cincinnati Bengals, who won to improve to 6-5 and maintain two-game leads in the division with five to go.
