Browns vs. Steelers Game Info
Cleveland Browns (11-5, 5-3 Away) at Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4, 7-1 Home)
Date:Â Sunday, Jan. 10, 2020
Time:Â 8:15 p.m. EST
Venue: Heinz Field – Pittsburgh, Penn.
Coverage:Â NBC
The Browns will have to compete without Kevin Stefanski after he tested positive for the virus. Cleveland will also be without star guard Joel Bitonio, wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge, cornerback Denzel Ward, defensive end Olivier Vernon and other defensive players. An already weak Cleveland secondary may be grasping at straws in trying to cover the bevy of Pittsburgh pass catchers on Sunday night. Baker Mayfield and the offense could have their work cut out for them trying to keep pace.
After locking up the division title in Week 16, the Steelers were able to get some of their stars some added rest last week. The most notable player to sit out of the Week 17 game entirely was Ben Roethlisberger. He is coming off of one of his best games of the season, throwing for 341 yards and three scores against the Colts. With the Steelers struggling to run the football in a big way throughout the second half of the season, one has to believe the offense will ride on the arm of Roethlisberger in Sunday’s matchup. Good luck to the Browns in trying to contain all three of Diontae Johnson, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Chase Claypool. Defensively Pittsburgh ranked third in the NFL in both scoring defense and yards allowed per game (305.8).
