Steelers at Browns picks and predictions
Prediction
Steelers 23, Browns 15
Moneyline
The Steelers (-200) will cost you 2 times your potential return, and that’s way too expensive for a standalone bet, especially for a road team.
While Cleveland showed it can be dangerous, topping the Baltimore Ravens in Cleveland in Week 8 as a 7-point underdog, the Browns (+165) cannot be trusted, however, as they’re 2-8 in 10 games. PASS.
Against the spread
The STEELERS -3.5 (-110) are a strong play laying the 3 and a hook in this Thursday night battle on the shores of Lake Erie.
Surprisingly, the Browns +3.5 (-110) have won the past 2 meetings at home, and 3 of the previous 4 meetings. However, Cleveland is just 3-7 ATS in the past 10 meetings since 2019, and it is basically near rock-bottom in that 5-year span.
Over/Under
OVER 36.5 (-110) is the lean, but go with a half-unit play at most.
The Over has cashed in 3 of the past 4 meetings in this series, and Pittsburgh has gone high in 4 of the past 5 games since Week 6.
However, Cleveland has scored 18 or fewer points in 9 of 10 games this season. The Browns are averaging just 16.2 PPG, while going for only 88.5 rushing yards per game, and only 291.3 total yards per contest, so be careful.
