Browns vs. Steelers betting preview
Deshaun Watson was a lightning rod for criticism in his first three injury-riddled seasons in Cleveland, but he appears to be turning things around a bit of late. Watson has completed nearly 65% of his passes this season and has thrown seven touchdowns to just three interceptions. He completed 72.7% of his throws against Pittsburgh in the first meeting and led a game-winning drive at the end of regulation. The Steelers will hope to replicate some of their recent defensive performances against the Browns. Pittsburgh has allowed 14 points per game over its last three contests.
Aaron Rodgers was also facing criticism last season for his play, but he's managed to steer the Steelers' offense well over the last three games. Pittsburgh's running game is also working with Jaylen Warren and Rico Dowdle, while DK Metcalf continues to be an explosive weapon in the passing attack. Rodgers has been clinical with six touchdowns to just one interception over the last three games.
