The Pittsburgh Steelers have won 11 straight and 16 of 17 against the Cleveland Browns, and they’ll try to continue that dominance when the teams face off at Heinz Field on Sunday.

NFL odds have the Steelers pegged as 14-point favorites.

Pittsburgh’s defense took a major hit during last Sunday’s 28-20 win over Detroit when defensive end Aaron Smith suffered a season-ending right shoulder injury.

Troy Polamalu has also been out since the season’s opening week with a knee injury, although he returned to practice this week and could be back in action Sunday.

After scoring six or fewer points in three of its last four games, Cleveland will almost certainly have to manage a bigger output offensively to beat the Steelers. That has been a problem against Pittsburgh, which has held the Browns to an average of 11.6 points during its 11-game winning streak in the series.
