The Cleveland Browns are hoping they don’t hear boos Thursday night when they play their division rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers, at home. 

But after their performance against the New York Jets, which resulted in an awful loss in the last seconds of the game, second-year cornerback Greg Newsome II couldn’t blame the fans. 

After the game Sunday, defensive end Myles Garrett said he was disappointed fans were booing the team. 

"It was not the most optimal ending that we’d want," he told News 5 Cleveland. "Of course we’d want to win. …We have a lot of time to correct what we’re doing, so we don’t want to see this crowd, this stadium give up on us this early. We want to see them completely behind us. And it’s disappointing for everybody, but it’s absolutely disappointing for us as a team."

Newsome, on the other hand, saw a different side of things. 

"I know the fans did boo. I would have booed too after a loss like that too," he said. 

The Browns lost in disastrous fashion. Running back Nick Chubb scored a touchdown that put the Browns up by two scores with one minute and 22 seconds left in the fourth quarter. All the Browns had to do was play conservative yet tight defense, but they couldn’t get the clock to zero.
