Browns hijack JuJu's taunts after upset playoff victory
The Cleveland Browns certainly heard JuJu Smith-Schuster's criticisms.
The Pittsburgh Steelers wideout said earlier this week that his team's opponents were "still the same Browns" that hadn't made the playoffs in 18 years. He doubled down by stating, "The Browns is the Browns."
Following their 48-37 upset victory over the Steelers on Sunday night, many Browns players and supporters were uttering the same words.

Browns players also mocked the TikTok dances for which Smith-Schuster made headlines all season:

Despite the result, Smith-Schuster didn't take back any of his pregame words:
JuJu on 'The Browns is the Browns' quote: "I don't regret saying what I said. They came out ... today wasn't our night. Hopefully the same browns show up against the next opponent and do what they did tonight and have a great game."
