Thursday night's Pittsburgh Steelers-Cleveland Browns match-up truly had everything: an enduring divisional rivalry, a classic one-liner from Jameis Winston, shirtless Browns fans, and even a viral Mike Tomlin moment ... complete with the perfect AFC North twist.

Tomlin isn't known for emoting, so it's tough to say whether he was enjoying himself out there. But one thing's for sure: everyone at home loved this night of vintage AFC North football.
Love snow games ❄️

My main takeaway from this game is that every Thursday night game should be played in the snow. I have no idea how that would work, but the NFL has money, it can pay someone to figure that out #Browns #Steelers pic.twitter.com/X9GxUE82Ne
