1981 Steelers at Browns

Shell grabs 3 INTs, Trout misses 3 PATs

I love this game! Nice video quality, lousy weather, and my favorite game of the '81 season.

Brian Sipe sets a club record on this cold, windy, nasty day by throwing 6 INTs (3 by Donnie Shell). Greg Hawthorne, Sidney Thornton and Franco Harris provide the Steelers early TDs on short runs and Bradshaw throws short TDs late to a pair of unlikely recipients: 1-yd to a very excited Ray Pinney on a tackle-eligible play and a 5-yarder to Rick Moser. Kicker David Trout continues the agony of his pitiful rookie season by missing 3 straight PATs.

The Browns take an early lead on a FG, but would've had 6 -if not for a Gregg Pruitt drop of a sure TD pass in the end zone. The Steelers then score quick back-to-back TDs as Hawthorne scores from a yard out following a long drive, and Thornton immediately capitalizes on a Sipe INT with a 3-yd TD for a 12-3 lead. Dave Logan snags a 13-yd TD to make it 12-10 at halftime, but the Steelers take their opening drive of the 2nd half the distance, keyed by fake a FG (due to Trout's obvious struggles) to set up a Franco Harris TD. Trout misses his 3rd straight PAT (this one is blocked) but the rout is on as Sipe can't stop throwing INTs and the Steelers run up the score in the 4th.

Renee's Crystal Ball - Wk 6

Renee's pick: Steelers 23, Browns 13
Tim’s pick: Steelers 30, Browns 10

Dillon Gabriel starts for Cleveland. Simple plan: Win on first down, crowd the quick game, make the rookie throw into tight windows on 3rd & long. Turnovers and short fields will decide it, and we should get a few.

Super Bowl X w/Fleming & Cope

STUNNING Video with WTAE Audio

We painstakingly synced this drop-dead gorgeous CBS video broadcast with the iconic radio call of the late, great Jack Fleming and Myron Cope. The result is glorious to behold and a striking contrast between the real football of the '70s and today's phony "WWF" version of the NFL.
