Steelers Seek Redemption Against Browns in AFC North Rematch
Pittsburgh looks to solidify its division lead while Cleveland aims to break a 20-year losing streak in Pittsburgh.
- The Pittsburgh Steelers (9-3) face the Cleveland Browns (3-9) on Sunday, two weeks after a surprise 24-19 Browns victory in snowy Cleveland.
- The Browns could sweep the Steelers for the first time since 1988 and end a 20-game regular-season losing streak in Pittsburgh.
- Cleveland quarterback Jameis Winston has revitalized the offense, leading the league in passing yards per game since Week 8, though turnovers remain an issue.
- The Steelers' defense is bolstered by the expected return of linebacker Alex Highsmith, joining T.J. Watt and Nick Herbig in a formidable pass rush.
- Tensions remain high after a scuffle between Browns cornerback Greg Newsome II and Steelers wide receiver George Pickens during the teams' last meeting.
