How To Watch Steelers vs. Browns Week 2 NFL Game: TV, Betting Info

The Cleveland Browns have a chance at doing something they haven’t done since 1993: win the season’s first two games. With the bright lights of Monday Night Football shining down, the Browns will try to go 2-0 as they take on their archnemesis Pittsburgh Steelers in an AFC North matchup.

Last week, the Browns defeated defending AFC North champion Cincinnati Bengals 24-3, with Deshaun Watson throwing for 154 yards and a touchdown. Nick Chubb went over 100 rushing yards and the Browns pounded the Bengals with over 200 yards on the ground.

Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett had two interceptions and one touchdown in the 30-7 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. He also took five sacks, which doesn’t bode well for the Steelers going up against a defensive line led by Myles Garrett.
