Browns -2 (-110) -125

Steelers +2 (-110) +105

The Steelers will play better than they did in Week 1, when they played arguably the best team in the NFL in the San Francisco 49ers.
It can’t be overstated how bad Deshaun Watson was in Week 1, even if the Browns won over the Cincinnati Bengals.

We are taking a home underdog in the Browns vs Steelers game that will close out the NFL Week 2 schedule. The Steelers should win this game at home, against a Browns team that is not as good as the final score looked against the Cincinnati Bengals in the first week of the season. That is especially true of Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson, who barely completed 55% of his passes last week, and will struggle against the Steelers pass rush this week.
