In another lost season for the Browns, the squad can at least take some holiday delight in playing Grinch to arch rival Pittsburgh. Much to the joy of another division rival, the Baltimore Ravens.

The Steelers were trying to clinch the AFC North in Cleveland's house on Sunday, which would've also swept the 2025 two-game series. Instead, the Browns defense came to play, holding Aaron Rodgers to zero touchdowns and only 168-yards in a 13-6 upset.

Baltimore was waiting anxiously following their 41-24 thrashing of the Packers on Saturday to see the result of this match-up. A Pittsburgh loss would mean that it would be a Ravens vs. Steelers, in a winner takes the division battle in Week 18.

As 4.5-point underdogs, the Browns pulled it out. The league took notice as current and former Baltimore players, as well as fans, flooded X in celebration posts.

The official Ravens X account gave a Shedeur Sanders shout out.

Sanders was good enough to hold on for the victory with a 17/23, 186-passing yards, one TD, and two interception stat line.

Ravens fan sites were also showing thanks with a Shedeur watch tribute photo.

Current Baltimore defensive end Brent Urban poured out some love to Cleveland Pro Bowl cornerback Denzel Ward. "The Warden" was in lock down mode on any of Aaron Rodgers' targets that were around him.

One of the Ravens all-time greats, Terrell Suggs, was thankful to the opponent he used to terrorize.

Acquired in a trade from the Tennessee Titans back in November, DE Dre'Mont Jones kept it simple.

The @NFLonFox account may have had the most creative post of the afternoon that summed up the emotion perfectly for anyone pro Baltimore.

 

Next Sunday will be can't miss action when the Ravens and Steelers clash for the division championship. The Browns, now one win better than a year ago at 4-12, limp to the finish line in Cincinnati to take on the 6-10 Bengals.
