The Cleveland Browns will travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers, and these Browns will be in the spotlight as they will be put into tough match-ups.

The Cleveland Browns will look to overcome the Pittsburgh Steelers for the first time since 2014 when they face off at 1 p.m. on Sunday.

The Browns will also look to defeat the Steelers in Heinz Field for the first time since 2003, when Butch Davis and Tim Couch led Cleveland to a 33-13 victory.

For Cleveland Browns head coach Hue Jackson, he enters Sunday’s game in a must-win situation. After struggling the last two weeks, one more bad game could end Jackson tenure’s in Cleveland.

If the first time these two teams played this season showed anything, the Browns should have a decent chance at winning on Sunday Cleveland was able to tie the Steelers in the regular season opener this season, but it was a very winnable game for the Browns.

With Baker Mayfield under center, this is a much different Cleveland Browns team than the Steelers faced at the beginning of the season. Josh Gordon and Carlos Hyde are gone. And Nick Chubb and David Njoku have emerged the last couple of weeks.

However, the emergence of young players can only do so much. Especially since the Browns are dealing with a rash of injuries, mostly on the defensive side of the ball. The injuries have created a lot of match-up problems for Cleveland, hurting their overall performance.

With those injuries, some Browns will be playing different roles than they did Week 1. But for the most part, a lot of the match-ups on Sunday will be similar to the first game of the season.

Here’s a look at some Cleveland Browns that will be in the spotlight against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.
