Nick Chubb powers through deep snow for a 2-yard touchdown, securing a 24-19 victory for the Browns against the Steelers.

CLEVELAND — In a thrilling matchup impacted by heavy snowfall, Nick Chubb secured a dramatic 2-yard touchdown with just 57 seconds remaining, leading the Cleveland Browns to a remarkable 24-19 victory over their division rivals, the Pittsburgh Steelers. This win not only halted the Steelers’ five-game winning streak but also marked a significant moment for Chubb, who was facing Pittsburgh for the first time since suffering a season-ending knee injury during a game against them last year.

The Browns, who now stand at 3-8, had previously let a 12-point lead slip away in the fourth quarter, falling behind 19-18. However, the momentum shifted when Pittsburgh punter Corliss Waitman mishandled a 16-yard punt, giving the Browns the opportunity to reclaim possession with 3:22 left on the clock.

As the snow continued to accumulate, obscuring the yard lines, Cleveland’s quarterback Jameis Winston made a crucial third-down throw to receiver Jerry Jeudy, which advanced the ball to the Steelers’ 9-yard line. Just two plays afterward, Chubb powered through the defense to find the end zone, igniting excitement among the home crowd.

The Steelers attempted a final comeback, but the Browns’ safety Grant Delpit intercepted Russell Wilson’s desperate Hail Mary attempt in the end zone, prompting an electrifying celebration at Huntington Bank Field. This victory provided a much-needed boost for head coach Kevin Stefanski during a challenging season, offering Browns fans a memorable moment to cherish.
