In the NFL's Thursday Night Game in Week 4, the Cleveland Browns defeat the Pittsburgh Steelers 27:24.

In the first quarter, only the Steelers score, with Wilson catching a touchdown pass from Rodgers. In the second quarter, the Browns get going, McLaughlin first running for a touchdown, with Judkins following suit shortly after. While the Steelers miss a field goal attempt by Boswell, Fannin Jr. manages to catch another pass from Watson for a touchdown. After Boswell converts a field goal, it's 21:10 at halftime.

Steelers Tie the Game

The third quarter remains scoreless, and in the final quarter, it gets exciting again. Quarterback Rodgers, who throws two interceptions and is sacked five times in the game, first connects with Washington and then with Freiermuth for a touchdown; a previously failed two-point conversion then succeeds on the second attempt - 24:24.

In the final phase, Watson is sacked while already in what seemed like safe field-goal range, and kicker Andre Szmyt finally has to try it from 56 yards - and converts the attempt ten seconds before the end for the 27:24 final score.

For the Browns, it is their third consecutive win; since 2016, the team has been unbeaten in eight consecutive Thursday games.
