The story: It was the season opening game and new head coach Bud Carson's first crack at his former team. The longtime coordinator in Pittsburgh, Carson vowed to Browns fans he knew the secret recipe to down the Steelers. Boy, was he right. The 51-point loss was the Steelers' worst in franchise history. The Browns scored three times on defense – including Clary Matthews, pictured below – and dominated so much, quarterback Bernie Kosar didn't even need to throw a touchdown pass.
