Odds watch: Browns open as underdogs in Pittsburgh

The Cleveland Browns are 4-1 for the first time since before Baker Mayfield and Myles Garrett were even born. Alas, they’re still not able to earn favored status when heading into Pittsburgh in Week 6.

The Steelers have opened as 3.5-point favorites at BetMGM as well as most other outlets. Being undefeated and playing at home are valid reasons why the Steelers get the benefit of the doubt. They’ve earned that respect for how they’ve performed in 2020.

At 50.5 points, the over/under is one of the lower ones for the Week 6 slate. Cleveland has scored at least 32 points four weeks in a row but has also allowed 20 or more in every game. Pittsburgh has posted at least 26 points in each of its four games.
