Ben Roesthlisberger has an outstanding record against the Cleveland Browns. He’s currently 15-1 when starting against Cleveland. To put that record into perspective, that record ties the best in a quarterback’s career with 16 starts against a team going back to 1960. Out of the 54 games where he has had a passer rating over 100 in his career, ten of those games are against the Browns.
The one loss to the Browns was on a Thursday night in 2009. It was a very cold and very windy night at Cleveland. Wind gusts were around 30 mph, and the Steelers seemed determined to throw the ball heavily, and ran the ball relatively little given the weather conditions for that game. The Steelers lost that game 13-6, and we all know how that season ended.
