We are just two days away from another Thursday Night Football NFL picks matchup, this week the Pittsburgh Steelers will be heading to Cleveland to take on the Browns. After the defending champion Pittsburgh Steelers lost to the Oakland Raiders just about anything can happen this Thursday night as the Steelers look to avoid a fifth straight NFL picks loss.

The 6-6 Pittsburgh Steelers take on the 1-11 Cleveland Browns Thursday night on the NFL Network in a Week 14 AFC North Division clash. Last week, the defending Super Bowl champs were shocked at home by the lowly Raiders while the Browns gave the Chargers all they wanted but eventually fell 30-23. The Steelers and the Browns have already met once this season with the Steelers winning 27-14 behind a 417-yard performance by QB Ben Roethlisberger. This head-to-head matchup has been all Pittsburgh with the Steelers winning 12 in a row.?NFL odds makers expect Pittsburgh��s dominance over Cleveland to continue,?listing the Steelers as a 10-point favorite with the total set at 34.

Cleveland is just 1-10 in its last 11 divisional games and already eliminated from the playoffs, and if the playoffs started today, Pittsburgh would be on the outside looking in as well. Cleveland would like nothing more than to end their 12-game losing streak to Pittsburgh and to, perhaps, spoil the Steelers playoff chances in the process.

The good news is that the Browns have not quit yet. They have been competitive in each of their last four games and have covered the spread in three straight games as a result. Cleveland��s defense is much better than many realize, but the statistics don��t paint that picture as it has to spend way too much time on the field due to the Browns lackluster offense. That defense will have to be on its A-game Thursday night, but it will need some help from the offense to have any chance at pulling off the upset. Brady Quinn has played much better in recent weeks as he tries to convince management that he is the long term answer at QB. He can really make a statement this week if he can play well against a Steelers defense that has allowed 27 points to both Kansas City and Oakland in two of their last three games. It is worth noting that the Steelers are on a 0-5 ATS skid versus teams with a losing record.

The Steelers have lost four in a row to find themselves slipping out of the playoff picture. This skid has Mike Tomlinson facing adversity for the first time as a head coach. He has hinted that he may shake up the lineup to get his team��s attention. The bottom line is, he must have his team ready to play on the road withoutmuch preparation time against a Browns team that is not laying down.

The Steelers absolutely crushed the Browns through the air in the season��s first meeting, but the passing game could take a hit as Hines Ward could miss with a hamstring injury. That means the Steelers could use a coming out party from Limas Sweed. Big things were expected from Sweed, who was drafted in the second round of the 2008 draft, but so far he has been a major disappointment with only once catch this season. It is worth noting that the Steelers are 8-3-1 ATS in the last 12 meetings. If you like Pittsburgh to continue its dominance over the Browns.
