Cleveland Browns have been on the losing end of too many games to the Pittsburgh Steelers but “PickensBurgh” lost a bet

The Cleveland Browns even had a few of them working versions of public relations for them during the 2025 NFL season.

Not a lot of good PR came out of a 5-12 season . Surprisingly, because the AFC North was such a mess, the Browns still had a shot at making the playoffs in late November, despite just three wins . That didn’t come close to happening, but Cleveland did keep the Pittsburgh Steelers from clinching the division in Week 17 and then knocked off the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 18 .

While the Steelers ended up clinching the AFC North before getting shellacked by the Houston Texans in the Wild Card round of the playoffs, the Browns upset in Week 17 was supposed to lead to one of those Pittsburgh fan account/influencer types to deactivate their account. As Cleveland’s official account reminded everyone, that didn’t happen, and “PickensBurgh” lives on: https://t. co/HJc1LCqALG pic.
