A Cold Winter Evening in Cleveland

[Bob Davis]

Starting the final round of the regular season. First match-up; Pittsburgh at Cleveland. I found a sandwich bag of styrofoam and shredded paper with my players and remembered that I use to use it as "snow" on the field. So this being the final week of the season, lake effect winter conditions would prevail.  So it's a snow covered field at Municipal Stadium. Almost makes me want to put a coat on! Additionally I'm using my old 660 board with a few rust spots on the field to simulate the less than perfect conditions. The Steelers (2-2) are coming off a 37-0 thrashing of the Cowboys. The Browns (1-3), have only scored 3 points in their last two games, both losses; and Bernie Kosar has been sacked 7 times in those two games. While not mathematically eliminated from the playoffs the Browns are basically relegated to the role of spoiler.
