McCarthy: 'It was important for us to come out of this stretch 6-2'

Bob Labriola reflects on the Pittsburgh Steelers defeating the Cleveland Browns 27-6 to move to 6-2 and claim sole possession of first place in the AFC North heading into their bye week. The victory avenged a loss to Cleveland from a month earlier and extended the Browns' regular-season road losing streak at Pittsburgh to 23 consecutive games.
Pittsburgh dominated both lines of scrimmage, tallying eight sacks and holding the Browns scoreless in three red-zone trips despite 324 passing yards from Deshaun Watson. Linebacker T.J. Watt extended his career sack total against Cleveland to an NFL-record 19.5, while running back Jaylen Warren continued his strong form behind a rebuilt offensive line.
