Half-Time Report: Pittsburgh Steelers up by 10 against Cleveland Browns

Steelers up by 10 against Browns

The Pittsburgh Steelers produced a professional first half to lead the Cleveland Browns by two points at half time.

The Steelers made steady progress with their first drive having started on their own 26.

Le'Veon Bell was making steady progress with his running game and made a couple of productive early carries.

Following a Ben Roethlisberger pass for 12 yards to Heath Miller, they were in range of a field goal but could not take advantage by converting it into a touchdown.

After a nearly five-minute drive, Shaun Suisham kicked a field goal from 47 yards to get the first points of the game.

The Browns made quick inroads with their first drive, Jason Campbell throwing a 24-yard pass to Josh Gordon.

The drive slowed down at that point but with a 49-yard effort Billy Cundiff was able to kick between the posts to level the score at 3-3.

In the second quarter it was tight, but the difference was Roethlisberger, who threw a good pass to Antonio Brown, who finished brilliantly between the defense, before a late kick by Suisham extended their advantage.
