The Browns are in a similar situation to the Steelers at this point — questionable quarterback play counterbalanced by a stout defense and solid running game. The Steelers and Browns go into this week’s game 6-3 and battling for second place in the AFC North. The Steelers have the edge after beating the Browns in Week 2.
