Former Pittsburgh Steelers coach Mike Tomlin knows as much as anybody of the Cleveland Browns' long-spanning futility, and he put that past to good work on Sunday while roasting Cleveland.
Tomlin trolled Cleveland after the team's rotten season debut against the Jacksonville Jaguars, quoting a former Steelers player to sum up the franchise's misfortunes.
"In the words of my friend JuJu Smith-Schuster, the Browns is the Browns," Tomlin quipped during a Sunday NBC Sports segment.
Okay, that's pretty funny. Tomlin's first season on the sideline has gone extraordinarily well so far, and moments like this will only increase the odds he stays in NFL broadcasting for the long haul.

If you're a Cleveland fan, we're sorry for this. Maybe brighter days are ahead... eventually.
