NFL – Pittsburgh Steelers vs Cleveland Browns preview and predictions
Pittsburgh Steelers opened the 2019 schedule in Foxborough. In the previous season, Pittsburgh finished 9-6-1, which was way too good for second in the AFC North, and seventh in the AFC. Much has changed since then, as the Steelers are now without key personnel that fans are accustomed to seeing. Though, after a very quiet offseason and preseason, the squad has rid itself of any bad taste leftover from last season’s antics. So, where does 10-6 place Pittsburgh in the division standings? here is how the AFC North will turn out:
- Cleveland Browns: 10-6
- Pittsburgh Steelers: 10-6
The Browns will advance on the field as they have on paper, triumph the tiebreaker, and force the Steelers into the wild card spot. Based on the game predictions, here is what the AFC playoffs will look like:
- New England Patriots: 11-5
- Kansas City Chiefs: 10-6
- Cleveland Browns: 10-6
- Houston Texans: 9-7
- Pittsburgh Steelers: 10-6
- Los Angeles Chargers: 10-6
In this scenario, the Steelers will have to travel to Houston to take on the Texans in the playoffs. Even though the Texans are an excellent football team, Pittsburgh is way better and they will come out on top. New England hasn’t been a very friendly place to play for the black and gold in the past 15-20 years. For that reason, Pittsburgh will then lose to the Patriots in the divisional round.
