Steelers-Browns Rivalry Has Been Brutally One-Sided

The Pittsburgh Steelers (4-5) and Cleveland Browns (0-10) are technically rivals since they both play in the AFC North, but the series has been far from competitive in recent years. The winless Browns will try to pick up their first win of the season in Week 11 against the black and gold.

Shark Bites
  • The Browns are 2-9 ATS in their last 11 games.
  • The Steelers are 5-2 SU in their last seven games after consecutive losses.
  • The Steelers are 1-6 ATS in their last seven games as a favorite of 10.5 or more.

Oddsmakers initially set the Steelers as 8-point road faves with a total of 49.5.

Just how bad are the Browns in Ohio? Cleveland is 1-10 SU in its last 11 games at home, going 1-9-1 ATS in that span. Yikes.

Pittsburgh has covered the spread in five of the last seven meetings between the squads, and they’re a fantastic 22-3 in their past 25 vs the Browns.

Tailing the UNDER when the Steelers hit the road has been a very profitable endeavor. Ben Roethlisberger and company have gone below the closing total in seven of their last eight road affairs. The UNDER is also 6-1 in Pittsburgh’s last seven meetings with the Browns.
