While the two most infamous characters involved in the notorious Thursday Night Football brawl between the Browns and Steelers likely won't sniff the field in this week's game (Myles Garrett suspended indefinitely while Mason Rudolph has been parked on the bench behind Duck Hodges), the tensions between the two clubs are still clearly lingering.

In fact, even the head coaches aren't shying away from taking a jab their rivals. Ahead of Sunday's clash, Freddie Kitchens was seen wearing a t-shirt that read "Pittsburgh started it."

We simply cannot wait to see Kitchens' smug expression when he shows up to Heinz Field rocking this shirt on Sunday. As you can probably imagine, he's in for one hostile reception .

Cleveland and its fans are clearly pumped for this matchup, as the lenient punishments given to the Pittsburgh players who helped to escalate the brawl have fueled the Steeler hate to a new level entirely.

A win in this contest could push Cleveland firmly back into Wild Card contention, while a loss would virtually end their season. Expect a tough, physical game between these squads, with more penalties than points.

Oh and of course, some back and forth jabs between members of the rivalry. Way to get the ball rolling here, Freddie.
