The NFL playoffs are marked by legendary but bizarre games. You got the Fog Bowl, the Ice Bowl and now we have the COVID Bowl. The Cleveland Browns are limping into Pittsburgh with their supposedly genius head coach and a growing list of players on quarantine due to the coronavirus. The depleted Cleveland team has Steelers Nation brimming with confidence ahead of Sunday night’s Wild Card game -- despite the Steelers losing to this very team last Sunday by a score of 24-22. But the mere fact the Steelers essentially played Cleveland to a draw in the Dawg Pound with a long-sought Browns playoff berth on the line – and Big Ben Roethlisberger, T.J. Watt and a plethora of other Pittsburgh starters held out – has confidence soaring in Steelers Country. It’s a foregone conclusion, in fact, especially with the COVID news. Right? I give you all the Xs and Os on the COVID-marred matchup, plus some side-splitting memes on this long-simmering but decidedly lop-sided rivalry – in this wild card edition of the Steelers Update Podcast.
