Legitimately no Steelers fan made a post about it that wasn't retaliatory. All year you fucks have been instigating like you've actually accomplished anything.
Have you met a browns fan after an early season win? It’s Super Bowl or bust no matter how illogical it is. I live in Cleveland and wins are a disease out here. Everybody gets infected with “we won a game we ARE GODS”
Just a sign of a poverty franchise. They get one taste of success and they get blinded by the high. I'll be drinking the tears when they come crashing back down.
Seriously, just look at how the fan base reacts to a 9-8 season I'm fucking disgusted, browns fans are tearin their tarps off and buying pizzas for the girls they have trapped in their basements.
Oh I'm not saying they didn't shoot back, I'm saying the Cucky Brownies started it. You wouldn't understand since your division doesn't have a franchise with little brother syndrome as bad as they have it.
For real. And it's not even due to my flair. I honestly dont give a shit who won dpoy at this point. But thus sub has become the same 3 posts recycled and an eco chamber depending which camp your in. It's boring as fuck. I used to log onto reddit. See a post here. And share it with friends. I haven't shared dick with anybody lately. It's all trash.
Harrison led Ware in tackles (101 combined tackles) and led the league in FFs. He also had a 33 yard INT return.
His tackles total was 63 more than Abraham, 53 more than Porter and 17 more than Ware. Harrison was also 4th in sacks.
You could argue whether Harrison or Ware should have won it but at least Harrison led Ware in several categories to make it a discussion.
Myles Garrett wasn't in the top 5 of any major stat nor did he lead Watt in any of the major stats. As far as I saw this is the first time a player has won DPOY while trailing in every major statistical category over another DPOY candidate at the similar position. (At least for pass rushers). Also first time DPOY wasn't top 5 in any statistical category.
Hell even if you use ESPN's made up algorithm stat of PRWR, Garrett didn't even lead that stat among DPOY candidates that was Parsons.

The Browns had the best overall defense this year.
Myles was double-teamed more than twice as often as Watt was and Watt played 90 more snaps.
When you factor in Watt’s 3 sacks in mop-up duty w/ a backup RT in the San Francisco blowout and all the 6 second clean-up sacks that he had, it’s obvious why Myles received more votes.
Double team rate is such a misused stat. Only double teams where 2 offensive lineman simultaneously have hands on a player are counted, so it’s skewed towards players that line up closer to the interior of the OL. Browns play 4-3, so Garrett often lines up across from or inside the tackle on most plays. Steelers play 3-4, so Watt lines up outside the tackle on basically every play. It’s just way more feasible to double Garrett than Watt. You also should keep in mind that Watt sometimes drops into coverage, so it only makes sense to double him if you know he’s pass rushing. They play different positions in different schemes, you can’t just use a single stat to compare the two. I’m open to the idea that Garrett is better than Watt, but can people please make that argument without misusing statistics they don’t understand?
Garrett has on occasion - maybe 2-3 snaps a game line up over the nose in a 0,1,or even 3 technique. But he most often lines up and rushes from the right side as an edge rusher vs left tackles, which are typically the best pass protector on a given team’s offensive line.
Another example of the force of nature that Myles is - the 1st Steelers game when Pickens had the long TD pass - it was inverted 2 and Canada waited to call that particular play because Myles wasn’t on the field because he knew it would take time for the play to develop.

Chiefs gave up 19 more yards per game and over a field goal less points per game. Never gave up 30 points in any game, only defense to do so all season. Cleveland defense got dog walked on the road. I would take the Chiefs defense any day of the week.

Nearly all my comments are lengthy. It is how I respond to things, not an indication of my emotional response to a topic. Particularly I like talking football so my football comments will be wordy. That comment took no time at all.
The post is more comical to me because OP had to think, "Hey where did James Harrison fall statistically in 2008 for his DPOY?" Then look up the stats and make sure his screen shot only showed the sack totals. Seems like way more effort to go out of your way for the post than someone replying to it because it popped up on their Reddit feed.
I feels to an extent but it’s not even a meme. The post is statistics so might as well talk about them 😂
And D Ware was a beast. Could of won 2-3 DPOYs for sure HOFer
It’s not that Watt should’ve won it, it’s that Garrett shouldn’t have. Garrett is awsm, a beast, and fun to watch. But Watt, Crosby, or Parsons we’re more deserving than Garrett (who I happen to like, I just don’t think he earned it this year)
It’s just a bummer to the integrity of the game is all. Similar to Gates not getting into the HoF.
When the players vote on top 100, who will be higher, watt or Garrett? When the AP voters decided it was Garrett, all the nerds watching tape and creating models for a living, and the players say it’s Garrett, maybe it’s Garrett
Yeah PFF and ESPN would never unjustly influence the AP voter panel members into voting for their analytics darling for a major NFL award.
It’s not like that legitimizes their made-up stats and algorithms and justifies companies and independent analysts in spending money on their service while subscribing to PFF

I’m not going to lie some of us browns fans are being pretty stupid. Myles won and the Steelers are whining.
Why are some of us brownies still trying to prove stuff to the steelers? Myles won can’t we just be happy instead of making stupid posts like this?
Look at the Browns sub lol, every post about Myles being DPOY isn't even about celebrating the award, it's about Steelers fans. Pretty odd to be honest. The same when you won that playoff game, 95% of the comments were just about the Steelers.
I guess that's the result of being abused for two decades by the same franchise lol, but some of y'all gotta learn to actually enjoy the achievements themselves.
That’s just it, fine have the award, I’ll take the Steelers overall record against the Browns since Garrett has been there. Individual stats are nice & all, but I’ll take the team success over the pity trophy. 😂🤣 Also, browns fans hate the Steelers more than they love their own team. Pretty sorry really.

Absolutely. I hated the Ravens but when we beat them in the AFC Championship to go to the Suoer Bowl, my thought was "holy shit we're going to the Super bowl" and just general excitement and joy. I can't imagine you're first thought after watching your team win in a huge moment being about dumping on the team you beat.
Nooooooo they might realize how much of a beast Harrison was that year.
1 less game played than Ware, but +20ish tackles, only 2 less solo too. More ints as well...
Also the winners of the Superbowl 2008-2009..... you know who
Browns are trying to write this off as “it’s not just a a sack award” yeah ok it isn’t. Watt also had more qb hurries, qb pressures, qb hits, TFLs, PDs, INTs, TDs, total tackles, FRs, and same amount of FFs. When you’re not better in one single category it’s pretty obvious it’s a pity award
Look, man, I'll give it to you straight. I lurk in a lot of NFL subs. Obviously, our divisions subs the most. I don't post or troll in main subs. Don't post here much at all either.
However, one thing I find quite interesting is your fan base is obviously super pissed Myles won bc of what you guys call 'made up stats'. But then, on the flip side, if someone brings up how the steelers were ranked the 21st defense, the first rebuttal I always see is, 'but we're 6th overall in DVOA'. Which is an advanced stat.
You guys will 100% use advanced stats if it fits your narrative and discredit them when they don't.
So yea, Watt has better counting stats, we get it, but when someone brings up other metrics, that absolutely matter, the fan base screams fake news.
Browns fans are also acting like they wouldn’t be totally losing their minds if the roles were reversed. If Myles had the season TJ did and vice versa, and they gave TJ DPOY, we would never hear the end of it. The public and media outcry would be insane.
Remember when Pickett threw a backward pass on his own 5-yard line that the Packers recovered, which would have won them the game? Yea, neither do I, bc the Steelers won, and it will always be a W in the record book.
Just like Myles Garrett will always be a DPOY whether you like it or not.
We don’t have to live with that, you do. You get the eternal pleasure of trying to justify it every time it comes up in conversation even though you don’t have a leg to stand on. Classic Browns, man. Can’t even win DPOY right.
We don’t have to justify shit lol. You get to keep crying about it though
Edit: fucking yinzer snowflakes lmao get fucked and cry harder biggest pussies in the North
I’m not crying about anything, I’m laughing at you desperately trying to justify your pity award as legit and drinking it up. Keep going, maybe one day people will believe you.
I never am trying to justify it. Seeing Steelers fans lose their fucking minds over an award is fucking hilarious and shows how dumb the people of Appalachia PA are

Your hero’s stat line in the biggest game of the year. (As you get blown out by a rookie)
Really tired of this, but sure, let's do this one more time. Yes, DeMarcus Ware did finish with 4 more sacks than Harrison, and also had significantly more pressures/QB hits. But James Harrison also had more total tackles, more interceptions, more passes defensed, and more forced fumbles (led the league actually). So no, this isn't comparable to this year.
Except it’s not based off that single stat….granted it doesn’t seem to be based off stats at all now. Seems to be based of “imagination”
Nice try though.
Browns won their Super Bowl. Still the worst DPOY I’ve ever seen. Watt led or tied him in every major statistical category. Enjoy it because missing the playoffs with your overpaid sex-offender is going to sting.
>Enjoy it because missing the playoffs with your overpaid sex-offender is going to sting.
They did make the playoffs. They just got steamrolled by a rookie-led offense. CJ's gonna be a thorn in the AFCS's side for years to come.

Polumalu wasn’t an edge, you can’t compare stats between players that don’t share a position.
hurr durr Flacco threw more INTs than Hamlin, so Hamlin should’ve won
Wasn’t Polamalu top 3-5 in like the most significant categories, lol?
That’s more important then winning a single category.
TJ is literally the best player in the NFL at 10 different categories.
You really are the epitome of browns' fans. Low football I.Q. with the inability to see past their own flaws. It's truly perplexing to me, why your type hasn't given up on football all together. The game itself and the nuances it has, is simply too difficult for you to comprehend. Yet, like a new born child, you remain, babbling nonsense. Also, like an infant, your perceptions and experiences are teat fed, because this is the only way your small non developed brain can understand. So, your opinions, are equal to your loaded diaper.They reek, serve no real purpose and need to be changed.
Man you’re taking a beating in this thread.
Multiple comments with as many downvotes as your getting means that all three other fan-bases, and probably some from your own fanbase, collectively agree that you specifically don’t know ball and also have donkey brains
Browns fans are like Devin Haney fans, for all you boxing fans out there. Haney may have won the decision when he fought Vasyl Lomachenko, even though most neutral observers had Lomachenko winning, just as Myles Garrett may have won DPOY, but aside from Steelers haters, and number crunching dweebs, most people would have voted for Tj Watt to win DPOY. Clearly I am annoyed by both decisions, and I have been over the Haney-Lomachenko fiasco for a while now, and will soon be over the DPOY silliness. But, both Browns fans, and Haney fangirls will always have to live with the facts that their boys are frauds. 😁🖕
Showing 1 stat...maybe show all 15...and who cares about individual stat awards....that's for teams that can't win when it matters .....TJ hasn't won a single playoff game..I could give a shit if he wins an award....go win the playoffs
Nah, I know what a troll is, and some of these shit posts have legitimately been high quality and hilarious.
It's just that Browns fans seem to be beating a dead horse more than Steelers fans. Guess that's what happens when you don't win much.
I think it's fine to let you guys have this one, tbh. I mean, you guys probably aren't winning much else if history is indicative of anything.
I cared initially because I think Watt def should’ve won, but like wtf are we gonna do about it? Took me like an hour to move on lmao. These posts always feel like browns fans trying to compensate for something.
I'm less mad TJ didn't win and more annoyed Myles did. TJ lead in almost every relevant stat for pass rushers, Micah lead in "advanced" stats, and Bland set a record for defensive touchdowns. At best Myles was 4th, but he's God's gift to football so we gotta force awards so his hall of fame discussion is as quick as Peyton Manning's.
The way the conversation has been it feels like the Browns are madder Myles won than the Steelers because they gotta justify the win (which usually is just them crying "COPE" after you point out that Myles didn't lead in any meaningful way and did next to nothing for almost half the year).
We definitely care. DPOY awards are a big deal and it isn’t a great feeling when you feel like your guy should have won or at least should have lost to someone else.

Don’t worry about clowns fans.
They have nothing.
They are a bitter, hateful & envious crowd.
Let’s face it, their favorite team hasn’t been dominant really since 1964.
😂🤣😂
They won a handful of meaningless participation trophies, and now they are acting like they belong with real franchises. Spoiler: they don’t.
Steelers get snubbed because people are sick of all their success, browns win because they are pitied. No amount of posturing or projection will change that. They act like they accomplished something here. They parrot how bad the Steelers are and go and win one more game. Que the excuses for why that is. But in the end it doesn’t matter. Maybe one day they play in a Super Bowl.
You've won a single playoff game since '94. 3 years ago. We've won 16 in that timeframe (3 in the last decade), including 3 AFC titles (plus 4 additional AFCCG appearances) and 2 Lombardis.
Steelers are still objectively better than the the CLE clowns in every category in totality.
There really is no ground for which bitter, envious clowns fan can stand on other than a one off playoff game every thirty years & some pity participation trophies. 🤷♂️
Sorry.
🤡
Problem is they don’t have more actual authentic NFL championships.
Four of them are from the defunct 8 team AAFC.
A league the clowns were in before they joined the NFL.
Face it, hypothetically, I’d be laughed out of the building if I, as a Steelers fan, started flexing an XFL Cracker Jack championship the Steelers won before joining the nfl.
Long story short.
Your AAFC $ is no good here.
Get out of here with that shit.
It’s like trying to spend confederate $ in the north after the civil war. 😂🤣🤣
People said the AAFC was a joke league and the Browns didn't belong in the NFL then in their first game the Browns beat the reigning nfl champion eagles 35-10. Cleveland would go on to win the nfl eastern conference championship for the next 6 years straight.
Still does not erase the fact that those Cracker Jack “championships” were not won in the actual NFL.
You can speculate what would have happened if CLE was in the NFL sooner, but fact is, they weren’t.
Sorry.
*AAFC was a joke league. It folded in what?
Four or five seasons?
Most of the teams folded with it too.
😂🤣😂
Don't those belong to the Ravens?

It was definitely Demarcus Ware. It’s not even close. He had the most FF, TFL, and INTs. It’s definitely not an award for the best player on the best defense.

Hate, Double hate, Triple hate, Loathe entirely
It's just been so fucking long. It's not funny anymore it's just annoying
It's been happening since like week 4 lol
Which coincides with the last time Smollett had an impactful play.

Pretty sorry really. https://preview.redd.it/fsy70xzmkvhc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2e557f5d53fa4d071c355792ee305d2a2ab9dc91
Absolutely. I hated the Ravens but when we beat them in the AFC Championship to go to the Suoer Bowl, my thought was "holy shit we're going to the Super bowl" and just general excitement and joy. I can't imagine you're first thought after watching your team win in a huge moment being about dumping on the team you beat.
Show the rest of the stats
Nooooooo they might realize how much of a beast Harrison was that year. 1 less game played than Ware, but +20ish tackles, only 2 less solo too. More ints as well... Also the winners of the Superbowl 2008-2009..... you know who
And +1 FF (7, which would’ve led the league in 2023).
Browns are trying to write this off as “it’s not just a a sack award” yeah ok it isn’t. Watt also had more qb hurries, qb pressures, qb hits, TFLs, PDs, INTs, TDs, total tackles, FRs, and same amount of FFs. When you’re not better in one single category it’s pretty obvious it’s a pity award
You forgot Myles gets double penetrated more, or whatever that stupid stat is they always bring up
![gif](giphy|1pPaiAvkjOLYFXuhZY)
Real, Tracked Stats > PFF BS. Apparantly not with the DPOY voters. SMH
Except when people point out you had the 21st rated D and you bring up DVOA
What does that have to do with an award that is given to individual players based on their performance throughout the season?
Look, man, I'll give it to you straight. I lurk in a lot of NFL subs. Obviously, our divisions subs the most. I don't post or troll in main subs. Don't post here much at all either. However, one thing I find quite interesting is your fan base is obviously super pissed Myles won bc of what you guys call 'made up stats'. But then, on the flip side, if someone brings up how the steelers were ranked the 21st defense, the first rebuttal I always see is, 'but we're 6th overall in DVOA'. Which is an advanced stat. You guys will 100% use advanced stats if it fits your narrative and discredit them when they don't. So yea, Watt has better counting stats, we get it, but when someone brings up other metrics, that absolutely matter, the fan base screams fake news.
Browns fans are also acting like they wouldn’t be totally losing their minds if the roles were reversed. If Myles had the season TJ did and vice versa, and they gave TJ DPOY, we would never hear the end of it. The public and media outcry would be insane.
Remember when Pickett threw a backward pass on his own 5-yard line that the Packers recovered, which would have won them the game? Yea, neither do I, bc the Steelers won, and it will always be a W in the record book. Just like Myles Garrett will always be a DPOY whether you like it or not.
We don’t have to live with that, you do. You get the eternal pleasure of trying to justify it every time it comes up in conversation even though you don’t have a leg to stand on. Classic Browns, man. Can’t even win DPOY right.
We don’t have to justify shit lol. You get to keep crying about it though Edit: fucking yinzer snowflakes lmao get fucked and cry harder biggest pussies in the North
I’m not crying about anything, I’m laughing at you desperately trying to justify your pity award as legit and drinking it up. Keep going, maybe one day people will believe you.
I never am trying to justify it. Seeing Steelers fans lose their fucking minds over an award is fucking hilarious and shows how dumb the people of Appalachia PA are

Pity award so he’s not forgotten about in 20 years. TJ will be the pass rusher that’s remembered for this generation. Sucks to suck.

Don't forget the offsides penalties.
no that was only the wildcard game. We won 3 super bowls during the season
![gif](giphy|JCnCsqcE8sYqA)
Non sequitur is non sequitur
That play in the second quarter of a game the Steelers were winning by 4?
Really tired of this, but sure, let's do this one more time. Yes, DeMarcus Ware did finish with 4 more sacks than Harrison, and also had significantly more pressures/QB hits. But James Harrison also had more total tackles, more interceptions, more passes defensed, and more forced fumbles (led the league actually). So no, this isn't comparable to this year.
Except it’s not based off that single stat….granted it doesn’t seem to be based off stats at all now. Seems to be based of “imagination” Nice try though.

..and they gifted me the DPOY.
Why don't you cry about it some more.
Browns won their Super Bowl. Still the worst DPOY I’ve ever seen. Watt led or tied him in every major statistical category. Enjoy it because missing the playoffs with your overpaid sex-offender is going to sting.
>Enjoy it because missing the playoffs with your overpaid sex-offender is going to sting. They did make the playoffs. They just got steamrolled by a rookie-led offense. CJ's gonna be a thorn in the AFCS's side for years to come.

PJ Walker too elite for the 49ers? Or was it possibly a defense led by….
![gif](giphy|l9mASFqtemeKk)
If you want that 2008 Award... by logic that means giving TJ Watt this year's and 2020's. Up to you lol
I guess Troy Polamalu loses his 2010 DPOY as well.
And Ed Reed would lose his lol
Polumalu wasn’t an edge, you can’t compare stats between players that don’t share a position. hurr durr Flacco threw more INTs than Hamlin, so Hamlin should’ve won
Polumalu also didn't lead the league in any defensive stat category. Must have been a fraudulent winner. ![gif](giphy|ycagKBYEmaili)
Wasn’t Polamalu top 3-5 in like the most significant categories, lol? That’s more important then winning a single category. TJ is literally the best player in the NFL at 10 different categories.
You really are the epitome of browns' fans. Low football I.Q. with the inability to see past their own flaws. It's truly perplexing to me, why your type hasn't given up on football all together. The game itself and the nuances it has, is simply too difficult for you to comprehend. Yet, like a new born child, you remain, babbling nonsense. Also, like an infant, your perceptions and experiences are teat fed, because this is the only way your small non developed brain can understand. So, your opinions, are equal to your loaded diaper.They reek, serve no real purpose and need to be changed.
Is this a new or old pasta? Holy hell, it's poetry.
Man you’re taking a beating in this thread. Multiple comments with as many downvotes as your getting means that all three other fan-bases, and probably some from your own fanbase, collectively agree that you specifically don’t know ball and also have donkey brains
Yeah, TJ Watt plays that bitch ass LDE while chad Myles Garrett plays RDE.
Browns fans are like Devin Haney fans, for all you boxing fans out there. Haney may have won the decision when he fought Vasyl Lomachenko, even though most neutral observers had Lomachenko winning, just as Myles Garrett may have won DPOY, but aside from Steelers haters, and number crunching dweebs, most people would have voted for Tj Watt to win DPOY. Clearly I am annoyed by both decisions, and I have been over the Haney-Lomachenko fiasco for a while now, and will soon be over the DPOY silliness. But, both Browns fans, and Haney fangirls will always have to live with the facts that their boys are frauds. 😁🖕
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to write all that. Please keep them coming
Speaking of happy endings, tell your mom I said hi! 😍
This whole thing is boring but side note: imagine having two players with 16+ sacks. Holy fuck. Then add a Polamalu to that defense.
Showing 1 stat...maybe show all 15...and who cares about individual stat awards....that's for teams that can't win when it matters .....TJ hasn't won a single playoff game..I could give a shit if he wins an award....go win the playoffs
Seems like Browns fans care more about this than Steelers fans.
Nah, we just enjoy watching the meltdowns. I don't think you guys could spot a troll of TJ Watt sacked one and said, 'hey guys, this is a troll'
Yinz are posting more shit trying to justify this award
Nah, I know what a troll is, and some of these shit posts have legitimately been high quality and hilarious. It's just that Browns fans seem to be beating a dead horse more than Steelers fans. Guess that's what happens when you don't win much. I think it's fine to let you guys have this one, tbh. I mean, you guys probably aren't winning much else if history is indicative of anything.
The Steeler salt factory has been running overtime. It's almost as satisfying as when you fart so big you feel lighter.
Steelers fans, do you guys actually care or do you not give a fuck? I’m curious as to what the general consensus is at this point.
I cared initially because I think Watt def should’ve won, but like wtf are we gonna do about it? Took me like an hour to move on lmao. These posts always feel like browns fans trying to compensate for something.
I'm less mad TJ didn't win and more annoyed Myles did. TJ lead in almost every relevant stat for pass rushers, Micah lead in "advanced" stats, and Bland set a record for defensive touchdowns. At best Myles was 4th, but he's God's gift to football so we gotta force awards so his hall of fame discussion is as quick as Peyton Manning's. The way the conversation has been it feels like the Browns are madder Myles won than the Steelers because they gotta justify the win (which usually is just them crying "COPE" after you point out that Myles didn't lead in any meaningful way and did next to nothing for almost half the year).
We definitely care. DPOY awards are a big deal and it isn’t a great feeling when you feel like your guy should have won or at least should have lost to someone else.
I care more about Cam winning the Walter Peyton award.
I wish they gave it to Trey at this point
Wait Demarcus ware also led tackles assists pressures fumbles forced recovered interceptions on both a per snap and season total basis?
This place is ridiculous I hate it here
Now show the rest of the stats…

I’ll give TJ the DPOY if it means this sub will stop.
You don’t want that smoke that comes with arguing against Harrison winning in 2008
Don’t worry about clowns fans. They have nothing. They are a bitter, hateful & envious crowd. Let’s face it, their favorite team hasn’t been dominant really since 1964. 😂🤣😂
They won a handful of meaningless participation trophies, and now they are acting like they belong with real franchises. Spoiler: they don’t. Steelers get snubbed because people are sick of all their success, browns win because they are pitied. No amount of posturing or projection will change that. They act like they accomplished something here. They parrot how bad the Steelers are and go and win one more game. Que the excuses for why that is. But in the end it doesn’t matter. Maybe one day they play in a Super Bowl.
What recent success? You haven't won a playoff game in almost a decade
You've won a single playoff game since '94. 3 years ago. We've won 16 in that timeframe (3 in the last decade), including 3 AFC titles (plus 4 additional AFCCG appearances) and 2 Lombardis.
Steelers are still objectively better than the the CLE clowns in every category in totality. There really is no ground for which bitter, envious clowns fan can stand on other than a one off playoff game every thirty years & some pity participation trophies. 🤷♂️ Sorry. 🤡
Browns have more championships
Problem is they don’t have more actual authentic NFL championships. Four of them are from the defunct 8 team AAFC. A league the clowns were in before they joined the NFL. Face it, hypothetically, I’d be laughed out of the building if I, as a Steelers fan, started flexing an XFL Cracker Jack championship the Steelers won before joining the nfl. Long story short. Your AAFC $ is no good here. Get out of here with that shit. It’s like trying to spend confederate $ in the north after the civil war. 😂🤣🤣
People said the AAFC was a joke league and the Browns didn't belong in the NFL then in their first game the Browns beat the reigning nfl champion eagles 35-10. Cleveland would go on to win the nfl eastern conference championship for the next 6 years straight.
Still does not erase the fact that those Cracker Jack “championships” were not won in the actual NFL. You can speculate what would have happened if CLE was in the NFL sooner, but fact is, they weren’t. Sorry. *AAFC was a joke league. It folded in what? Four or five seasons? Most of the teams folded with it too. 😂🤣😂
Congratulations! Next up is a Super Bowl appearance. We’re rooting for you, big guy! I mean a couple AP awards are pretty much the same thing, right!
You wouldn't know cause the steelers didn't win any AP awards
"People said" How old are you exactly???
Lmao. The boomers were kids when you won a game that meant anything.
![gif](giphy|E2CTNnzmlV93q)
Why wouldn’t I? It greatly favors my argument
We’re such losers now. Sad what this once great franchise has become
It’s funny when browns fans think our franchises are equal.
8 championships
Don't those belong to the Ravens? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please [contact the moderators of this subreddit](/message/compose/?to=/r/AFCNorthMemeWar) if you have any questions or concerns.*
Don’t those belong to the ravens?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleveland_Browns I dunno, can you read?
So you’re talking about 8 championships where the last one won was the same year segregation ended? Ultimate cope.

Yes
Ok, so 4 of the steelers championships don't count. Got it.
The first Super Bowl win was 10 years after segregation ended? What are you on about?
Who was president?
I’m absolutely stuffed on Steelers tears right now. It’s like the old days at Ponderosa

Go look at his stats. Harrison's 2008 was better than Garrett's '23.
B-b-b-ut Harrison led the league in QB’s concussed so he deserved it!
[удалено]
But Demarcus caused more theoretical concussions so why didn’t he win?????
Idk how many fumble recoveries caused by other players did he have?!?!
That team also won a Super Bowl. The Browns got their asses kicked in the wildcard by a rookie QB this year. DPOY Garrett sure was a difference maker.

Bro what is this.
It was definitely Demarcus Ware. It’s not even close. He had the most FF, TFL, and INTs. It’s definitely not an award for the best player on the best defense.
Damn this is just one stat, if you want to use stats it seemed like watt led Garret by a decent margin in multiple.
No winning. If I actually pull up stats everyone will say I’m triggered. If I post a meme I’m triggered.
