The second of two “Monday Night Football” games in Week 2 pits old rivals against each other as the Pittsburgh Steelers play host to the Cleveland Browns.

Pittsburgh, meanwhile, was blown out on their home field by the San Francisco 49ers. In this game, the Browns will be looking to continue their good start, while the Steelers attempt to reverse the tide.
