The Cleveland Browns were not in the mood for pleasantries after beating the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday, keeping the Baltimore Ravens’ playoff hopes alive.

The Browns beat the Steelers 13-6 at Huntington Bank Field in Cleveland, Oh. on Sunday, ensuring that the AFC North will not be decided until Week 18. The Steelers would have clinched the division and eliminated the Ravens with a win, but failed to even find the end zone.

That meant the Ravens remain alive and will travel to Pittsburgh in Week 18 for a division-deciding game. Needless to say, their social media account was quite enthusiastic about the opportunity and offered the Browns a shoutout.

The Browns weren’t having it.

“Don’t think we did this for you,” they replied.

The Browns and Ravens have a longstanding rivalry, but so do the Browns and Steelers. They couldn’t really win either way here, so they’re best served by focusing on their victory and leaving it at that.

The Ravens were pulling hard for the Browns on Sunday and made no secret of it. If they manage to win the division, they will have Cleveland, in part, to thank.
