The Cleveland Browns are pursuing their first season sweep of the Pittsburgh Steelers since 1988 as the AFC North rivals prepare to meet again. The historic rivalry adds significant weight to the matchup, with Cleveland looking to complete a rare double over their divisional opponent.

Mike Florio of ProFootball Talk on NBC Sports reported on the storyline ahead of the game, highlighting the 38-year gap since the Browns last achieved a season sweep against Pittsburgh. The 1988 season remains the most recent instance where Cleveland defeated the Steelers twice in the same campaign.
