Top Steelers vs. Browns predictions
After 10,000 simulations of Steelers vs. Browns, the model is going Under 37.5 points at betting apps. Two of three Pittsburgh games have gone Under the total this season. Cleveland, meanwhile, is coming off an Under against Carolina when the teams combined for 39 points.
Neither team is known for its offense as both rank in the bottom 10 of the NFL in scoring through three weeks. These squads also both finished in the bottom eight of total offense last season, so there's an extended track record of offense struggles. SportsLine's model projects that both teams throw for less than 200 yards, while neither team is projected to have a rusher clear 70 yards.
The model projects 37 combined points as the Under hits in 55% of simulations. See which team to back at SportsLine.
