Running backs and ran for a combined 1,908 yards and 18 touchdowns while averaging 4.9 yards per carry. Quarterback , following a disappointing 2019 campaign, significantly improved his completion percentage this season while throwing 13 fewer interceptions than he did last year. A big reason for Mayfield's succe s has been the Browns' ability to capitalize on his mobility. While he is capable of making plays with is feet, Mayfield is also proven to be a dangerous pa ser when outside of the pocket. The Steelers will surely try to keep Mayfield inside the hash marks throughout Sunday's game.Speaking of the Steelers' defense, the unit will be mostly at full strength with the expected return of inside linebacker , who mi sed Pittsburgh's last three games with a knee injury. Spillane will rejoin Pittsburgh's talented linebacker corps that also includes Avery Williamson, , , and Defensive Player of the Year candidate T.J. Watt. Pittsburgh's linebackers are complemented by a formidable Anthony Davis Jersey defensive line that includes Pro Bowler Cam Heyward and . The Steelers' secondary, led by Pro Bowl safety , is hoping to get back safety , who mi sed last Sunday's game with a shoulder injury. Pittsburgh's defense will likely have to play without cornerback , who is currently on the COVID-19 list. , a four-year veteran, would replace Haden in the starting lineup. The Steelers offense appears to have woken up from a month-long slumber. After scoring three unanswered touchdowns in a Week 16 win over the , put up 315 pa sing yards and two touchdowns in last Sunday's two-point lo s in Cleveland. Specifically, the Steelers' receiver corps -- a group that includes , , and -- has done a significantly better job hanging onto the ball after struggling to do so during Pittsburgh's three-game losing streak. Pittsburgh's offense will further be bolstered by the return of tight end Eric Ebron, who was activated from the COVID-19 list on Thursday.Cleveland's defense is hoping that cornerback will be able to come off of the team's COVID-19 list in time to play on Sunday. The absence of Ward and fellow cornerback contributed to Pittsburgh's pa sing succe s last Sunday. The team suffered a significant blow near the end of Sunday's game when defensive end (who is second on the team in sacks and first in tackles for lo s) suffered a season-ending Achilles injury. Cleveland's defense will have to lean even more on Pro Bowl pa s rusher , who has recorded just 2.5 sacks in his previous five games after mi sing two games due to COVID-19.The Steelers have received rock solid kicking from and , who have combined to make all but one of their 24 field goal attempts this season. has also enjoyed a solid season in Cleveland, as he has connected on 19 of his 22 field goal Wenyen Gabriel Jersey attempts and 43 of his 47 point-after attempts. Latest Odds: Pittsburgh Steelers -5.5 The Steelers are simply a bad matchup for the Browns. While Cleveland is one of the NFL's best teams when it comes to running the ball, Pittsburgh boasts one of the league's best run defenses. Cleveland's offense, which has been Zion Williamson Jersey one of the league's best on third down and in the red zone, is facing a Pittsburgh defense that is fifth and sixth in those categories, respectively. And while Mayfield was able to break free for several big runs last Sunday, don't expect him to find as much daylight Sunday night against a Steelers defense that will be welcoming back Spillane and Edmunds.Defensively, the Browns allowed to rumble for over 100 yards in Pittsburgh's Week 6 win over Cleveland. If the Steelers' 32nd-ranked running game rediscovers their momentum Sunday night, that would likely lead to a big day from Big Ben, who threw 33 touchdowns and just 10 interceptions during the regular season. Pittsburgh's offensive line received some good news this week with the return of starting left guard , who -- like Spillane -- is expected to be activated off of injured reserve prior to kickoff.If Roethlisberger is on target, and his receivers continue to ride the momentum that they've built over the past two weeks, the Steelers should cover the spread while advancing to the divisional round of the playoffs. Score: Steelers 24, Browns 13
