Steelers fans fired back online after the Cleveland Browns’ social media team tried to mock Pittsburgh during the NFL schedule release. The Browns used memes to represent each 2025 opponent and depicted the Steelers as a flaming dumpster swept away by water. Given Cleveland’s own troubled history with quarterbacks—ranging from bust draft picks to the controversial Deshaun Watson deal—Steelers supporters didn’t take the jab lightly.
Fans and media personalities clapped back, highlighting the Browns’ lack of Super Bowl wins, their inconsistent QB strategy, and overall struggles as a franchise. Memes and sarcastic replies flooded the post, including jabs at the Browns’ quarterback situation, referencing their recent drafting of Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders despite already having Watson, Kenny Pickett, and Joe Flacco.
While Pittsburgh’s quarterback room also remains uncertain, the rivalry heated up with both teams potentially eyeing a top quarterback in the 2026 draft. Ultimately, the Browns’ attempt to troll the Steelers backfired, turning the conversation into a roast of Cleveland instead.
