They’re the teams that Steelers fans have grown to hate over the years. When you see these teams on the schedule, your blood starts to boil just a little bit more, and you start counting the days till those games. Why of course it’s the rivals of the Steelers that we’re talking about, and here we go with the teams top 10 all-time rivals. Today we continue with number 1:
1. Cleveland Browns – Okay, maybe over the past few years this matchup hasn’t been quite as competitive as it use to be. After all, it takes two to make a good rivalry, and considering that the Browns have beaten the Steelers once since a Sunday night game in October of 2003, this matchup has been pretty one-sided as of late. The Steelers had beaten the Browns 12 straight times entering the last game a loss on December 10th 13-6. In the 12 game winning streak, the Steelers had recorded two shutouts, held them to six points twice, and seven points twice. The Steelers neighbors have been more of a whipping boy than their toughest rivals. Of course from a Steelers standpoint it’s been a lot of fun to watch.
