Steelers vs. Browns betting preview<\/p>\n

Odds:\u00a0Steelers -5.5, over\/under 38.5<\/p>\n

Gabriel had two touchdown passes in his NFL debut, although he only threw for 190 yards and could run into trouble against good defenses expecting him to throw short passes. Cleveland’s defense continues to be its bread and butter, allowing the fewest rushing yards per game in the league (75.6) while hitting the Under three times. It has also racked up 14 sacks in five games, so Myles Garrett<\/a> and the pass rush will be gunning for an aging quarterback in Rodgers that has already gone down nine times this season. <\/p>\n

Rodgers is only throwing for 196.5 yards per game, but has a serviceable 8-3 TD-INT ratio coming off the early-season bye. He and DK Metcalf<\/a> will not have to carry quite as much weight, as running back Jaylen Warren<\/a> is not on the injury report. The Steelers defense is allowing 122.0 rushing yards per game but hasn’t allowed a touchdown on the ground since Week 2, so it will be interesting to see how they defend against Quinshon Judkins<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Model’s Browns vs. Steelers score prediction, picks<\/p>\n

The Steelers are 2-2 against the spread on the season and 18-1 straight up against the Browns at home in the Mike Tomlin era. Cleveland’s defense will put plenty of pressure on Rodgers, but the Browns offense may not be developed enough to pull off an upset. The SportsLine model projects Pittsburgh will cover the spread in 61% of simulations. Browns vs. Steelers score prediction: Steelers 25, Browns 15\u00a0<\/p>\n
