Thankfully, the failed fake field-goal attempt by Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell didn’t cost the Steelers the win over the Cleveland Browns. It did give Boswell a concussion and his status for next week’s game will be up in the air all week.

But for head coach Mike Tomlin, he could speak freely about it because despite how badly it went, it did not ultimately impact the outcome of the game. This gave Tomlin the freedom to fall on his sword for it, thank his team for picking him up and moving on from it.

Was the timing of the call terrible? Absolutely. Was the execution of the play worse? For sure. But ultimately, the Browns read the fake and covered it perfectly. This put Boswell in an impossible situation. If the play works, no one questions Tomlin’s decision to do it but when the team gets back together the conversation has to be about what to do when things go wrong.

This week the Pittsburgh Steelers defense comes to Cleveland to face the power running Browns team after showing a real weakness to the run in its last game. Pittsburgh cannot afford to lose this matchup so here’s what we expect to see when the Steelers are on defense.

This week the Pittsburgh Steelers are coming off of the bye and have to contend with a stout Cleveland Browns defense. We have seen the evolution of the Pittsburgh offense in recent weeks thanks to improved offensive line play and more confidence in the system of offensive coordinator Matt Canada. What kind of tricks and treats will Canada have for the Browns defense on Halloween?

When the Pittsburgh Steelers take on the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, there’s a good chance they will go it without outside linebacker Melvin Ingram. The team put out the game status report and Ingram is listed as doubtful with a groin injury.

Ingram has seen his snaps diminish every week since having a strong opening weekend game against the Buffalo Bills. Rumors are swirling that Ingram’s representatives have reached out to the team requesting a trade. Could Ingram’s status have anything to do with this? Time will tell. It is unclear how the Steelers will replace Ingram in the lineup if he cannot play. Derrek Tuszka is the only other outside linebacker on the roster and a relative unknown. Pittsburgh does have former first-round pick Taco Charlton on the practice squad and could promote him this week.

The only other injury of note for the Steelers is tight end Eric Ebron. He popped up on the injury report in the middle of the week with a hamstring injury and is listed as out for this week’s game. All other Steelers who were limted through the week are a full go versus the Browns.

The Pittsburgh Steelers released its game-status report for this week’s game against the Cleveland Browns. The big name on the list is tight end Eric Ebron who was listed midweek with a hamstring injury and will miss Sunday’s game.

Ebron has been at the center of some controversy this week as he was somewhat vocal about his lack of reps and targets so far this season. Ebron has become part of a three-man tight end rotation for Pittsburgh with rookie Pat Freiermuth and veteran Zach Gentry.

The conspiracy theorist in me wonders just how hurt Ebron is and is he sitting this week because the Steelers plan to ship him off in a trade after Sunday’s game. But I’m probably reading too much into this. We will know soon enough.

The Pittsburgh Steelers currently sit at 3-3 and are in last place in the crowded AFC North. However, they are just barely out of the playoff picture in the AFC.

Looking ahead at the next three games, the Steelers are in a great position, with a win this week to be 6-3 after nine games and have the season back on track. But where will the team sit in the division? Let’s look at the next three games for all four teams.
