It is a quick turnaround for Russell Wilson and co. after their game against the Ravens 4 days ago. The Steelers defense managed to stop the Lamar Jackson-Derrick Henry juggernaut. It would be safe to assume that they can hold the Browns who haven’t done much this season.
But interestingly, the Browns have a win against the Ravens too, a game they won 29-24. This win came after DeShaun Watson’s season ending injury as he was replaced by Jameis Winston. Since then, the Browns are on a 2-game losing streak right.
