The Pittsburgh Steelers now have their turn to prepare on a short week for an upcoming Thursday Night Football game in Week 11 as they travel to Cleveland to play the division rival Browns.

The Browns (3-6) and Steelers (5-4) represent two teams on two different trajectories heading into Thursday’s game. The Browns, although winners over the Buffalo Bills in Week 10, have struggled to gain footing and are on the verge of watching those playoff hopes going down the drain. On the flip side, the Steelers have turned a once 0-3 season into four straight wins, and five of their last six, to be 5-4 heading into the prime time game on the shores of Lake Eerie.

These two teams, especially the Steelers without Ben Roethlisberger, are much closer than their records might indicate, and the Steelers will have a chance in the next three weeks to essentially end the Browns’ season.

But before we get ahead of ourselves, it is time to take a look at who the NFL experts like in this AFC North grudge match. It should be noted not all websites have their picks submitted, so these numbers might change slightly before kickoff.
