Even though the Pittsburgh Steelers are coming off of back-to-back victories against winning teams, there should be no underselling of the remaining significance of the next three games, three consecutive contests against divisional opponents with losing record. Two of the three are against the Cleveland Browns, starting on Thursday night, on the road.
The Browns are coming off of their first victory since Week Four when they took down the Baltimore Ravens who have surprisingly not lost a game since then. A four-game losing streak snapped by defeating the Buffalo Bills, who are 6-2 at the time and right in the thick of the AFC East with the New England Patriots.
