    3 Reasons why you should bet the Steelers this Sunday
    Last week I gave yall the Saints (congrats to those who followed), and this week I'm giving you 3 reasons to bet...

    Steelers +3


    1. Steelers have been on a roll out gaining all 5 of their last 5 opponents in yardage win or loss (including against Cincinnati although not by much) and have covered against the Bengals over 80% of the time in recent years.

    2. Whenever Steelers lose at home in the previous match-up with their opponent, they come back for blood the next time around.

    3. Steelers always step it up in this time of the season, And despite the Bengals being the best bet in the NFL this year, they have historically dropped the ball this week in recent years. So if it was ever a time to bet against them, it would be now. They are 10-1-1 ATS. It's rare a team gets more than 11-12 covers in a season. So just thinking with simple probability, the 4 teams remaining are the Steelers, 49ers, Broncos, and Ravens. I doubt they cover all 4 and if I had to choose it wouldn't be the Ravens or the 49ers to do it.

    So basically here we have a motivated team in crunch time with Big Ben at qb, that has historically covered against this specific opponent for years...as the underdog in a divisional game.

    But remember, I'm no psychic good luck!

    My only problem with steelers this year is as soon as they seem to get rolling someone gets injured . This year it just seems the injury flu is holding them back from another super bowl run. I think the bengals will want to clinch the division here. Your reasoning makes sense though good luck

      The Bengal will be without 2 of there top CB's. Big Ben is already a passing machine, so the steelers will have a field day. The bengals will score as well, however, they will fall short. Steelers will win in a high scoring shoot out.

                This is my fav game on the board. Steelers could easily win this by 10+.

                  Steelers should win but the one and only reason is secondary injuries, the Bengals when healthy are the best team in the NFL.

                    Sure. Maybe in the regular season they're one of the best. They still have to prove they can get it done in the playoffs before we crown them.

                      They really stepped it up last year around this time of year when they lost to geno smith and the jets..

                      I'm not sold on Pitt. Their o is scary good but the d is atrocious at times

                              Weather looks perfect for scoring too, mild temp and minimal wind. Take the over.

                                  Cincy's is nothing special. Very even teams and Steelers have the edge at QB.

                                      I think I like the Steelers in this spot as well. It is either 20-17 Bengals or 31-20 Pitt.

                                            Yeah, I agree. Still gotta respect Cincy in the reg season.
