Bernie Kosar was the Browns QB, Marty Schottenheimer was their HC, Earnest Byner was their leading rusher, and Reggie Langhorne was their leading receiver.
The Steelers were led by Bubby Brister at QB, Chuck Noll at HC, Merril Hoge (yep, that guy) at FB, with Troy Johnson as their leading receiver.
It was a rainy day, but the Browns prevailed behind a great all-around defensive and special teams effort, with 6 sacks from the likes of Michael Dean "Little Fridge" Perry and Clay Matthews.
Highlights from the game
Full game stats
The Browns would win 27-7 to improve to 7-5 on the season, and the Steelers falling to 2-10. Chuck Noll would famously lose the locker room that season as the Steelers finished 5-11 (1 of only 3 losing seasons they've had since '88). The Browns would finish 10-6, good enough for the wild card. However, the Browns were without Kosar, and Mike Pagel wasn't enough to beat Warren Moon, Jerry Glanville, and the Oilers.
