STEELERS VS. BROWNS – 5:15PM PT/8:15PM ET [PRIME VIDEO]
Quick recap on Week 2. It had some weird, yet interesting games with insane comebacks with small amounts of time and crazy endings. 63% of the teams that lost last week won this past weekend. Meanwhile, the seemingly lowly Giants sit at 2-0 while the Super Bowl runner-up Bengals sit at 0-2. There’s still no clue who stands out this season except the Chargers, Bills, Chiefs, and Eagles. But beware of the 49ers, Packers, Buccaneers, Dolphins, Cowboys, and Ravens. These teams that I’m impressed with outside of those names above so far are the Jaguars, Jets, Lions and Texans. Whether they can contend for a wild card or not, I do love their fight. Teams I’m disappointed with so far are the Bengals, Raiders, and Broncos. But hey, there’s still 15 games to go. Anything can happen. Now let’s get to Thursday Night Football preview.
PITTSBURGH STEELERS PREVIEW
Pittsburgh struggled offensively, which resulted in the loss to New England. The Steelers’ defense did as much as possible to give this team a fighting chance. There’s still questions with the offensive line and whether or not it’s time to switch Mitch for Kenny Pickett. They have plenty of work cut out against the Browns’ nasty defense. If Pittsburgh wants this win, the offense must solve their issue.
CLEVELAND BROWNS PREVIEW
Cleveland’s win over Baker Mayfield and the Panthers created a major buzz amongst the NFL. So much, that the organization painted Brownie the Elf in midfield in anticipation for more to come this season. Unfortunately, their winning opportunity against the Jets fizzled in the last few minutes when they allowed two scores in less than two minutes of the game. The Browns made a huge error, and now they face their rivals for what should be one of their biggest tests of the season.
THE MATCHUP
There’s already enough issues trying to figure out who stands out in the NFL, but with Pittsburgh’s offense woes and Cleveland’s inability to finish games, it’s difficult to tell who’s better. Both have good defenses and the running game seems to be their strength. Anything goes, but anything can also go right or wrong real fast, real quick. It’s a gamble, but Cleveland’s at home for their second straight game and looks for redemption after an embarrassing fallout. Pittsburgh’s offense has an identity crisis, so they’ll likely struggle once again.
