The Cleveland Browns were a top 10 offense this season, and in the Wild Card win over the Steelers they again showed why they are successful. Kevin Stefanski has gotten a lot of credit for his teams improved offense, especially in the effectiveness of his quarterback Baker Mayfield. Watching the Browns beat the Steelers, I was struck by how similar the Steelers and Browns offenses are. The concepts are very similar and the way they attack space are similar.
Since the game I took a hard look at the differences in the two offenses, and there’s a few things the Steelers should be able to implement with either Ben Roethlisberger or Mason Rudolph playing quarterback.
