This Monday Night Football game is part of a rare Monday Night Football doubleheader and pits two AFC North Rivals against each other with a lot on the line. If the Cleveland Browns win, they'll take sole possession of the division lead. If the Steelers win, it creates a three-way tie for first in the AFC North.

So will the Browns claim supremacy after 60 minutes of football action? Or will the Steelers make this a division title race to watch? Either way, you won't want to miss this NFL live stream.

Expectations for the Cleveland Browns were high last year. But things went off the rails quickly when new quarterback Deshaun Watson was suspended for the first 11 games of the 2022 NFL season after the NFL determined Watson had committed multiple violations of the NFL's personal conduct policy. When he returned, he looked rusty and the Browns never found their groove.

But concerns that the malaise would continue into this season were firmly abolished last week. While Watson still looked relatively average, he managed to score a touchdown on the ground and through the air en route to a 24-3 demolishing of the Cincinnati Bengals. The Browns defense looked particularly good, holding Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow to just 82 passing yards.

The Pittsburgh Steelers should, in theory, represent an easier matchup, though it's never easy to go into Pittsburgh and grind out a win. The Steelers did not look good in any facet of the game in their Week 1 30-7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The offense looked sloppy and the defense leaked rushing yards and passing yards in equal measure. To make matters worse, wide receiver Diontae Johnson was knocked out of the game with an injury and will miss this game against the Browns.

Still, it's tough to bet against Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin. He's never fielded a team that finished the season with a losing record and he knows how to pull out scrappy wins. It would be shocking to see the Steelers look as bad as they did in Week 1, even if they're ultimately outmatched by the Browns.

Bettors do think that the Browns ultimately come away with the win. According to DraftKings, the Browns are currently 2-point road favorites against the Steelers. The over/under is 38, so expect a low-scoring affair.
