The Browns could have beaten the Steelers and finished the 2017 season with one win. Their chances slipped right out of Corey Coleman’s hands.
Browns’ last chance for a win literally slipped through Corey Coleman’s fingers
The poor Browns.
Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.
The Browns had a fourth-and-2 on Pittsburgh’s 27-yard line with 1:46 to play and just trailing by four points. DeShone Kizer escaped pressure, rolled out, and targeted Coleman.
Coleman could have reeled it in. The pass hit him in the hands, but he dropped it.
After the play, Coleman was visibly upset. Kizer tried to comfort him.
After the game, Kizer was asked what he said to Coleman.
“We’ll keep that between ourselves,” Kizer said.
Head coach Hue Jackson also addressed Coleman’s drop.
There is some good news for the Browns. The Texans ended up fourth in the draft order. The Browns get Houston’s first-round pick thanks to the trade that let the Texans take Deshaun Watson 12th overall. So the Browns have the first and fourth overall picks in this year’s draft. That’s something, at least.
Plus, we all have that parade commemorating the Browns’ winless season to look forward to.
