Pittsburgh Steelers +3.5
This game is a matchup of two of the hottest teams in the NFL right now. Cincinnati have put up 30+ points in four straight wins. Pittsburgh have also won four on the bounce and five of their last six overall. Additionally, both teams have not played since Week 8, so they should be fresh and at their best.
The Steelers, though, are our pick. For one, Aaron Rogers' team got the better of Joe Burrow’s team in Week 3, beating Cincinnati 30-27. Besides that, we think the Bengals have benefitted from their schedule this season.
Both of Cincinnati’s losses this season came against top-five defences in the league — Pittsburgh and Jacksonville. Their six wins, on the other hand, have come against defences ranked 18th or lower for points allowed per game. The four teams the Bengals have beaten on their recent unbeaten run have all given up 24 or more points per game. The Steelers allow opponents to score just 18 points per game.
Even if they don’t win on Sunday, we’re encouraged by the Steelers’ 6-2 record against the spread. Only the Broncos have a better record, at 7-2.
- Steelers vs Bengals Pick 1: Pittsburgh Steelers +3.5 @ -115 with BET99
Under 49.5 Points
While both these teams are on a tear right now (especially the Bengals), NFL bettors tend to overreact to recent offensive performances. You can see that with how the totals line for this game has gone up this week.
The Steelers vs Bengals over/under line started at 47.5 points with most sportsbooks to start the week. It’s creeped up to 49.5 points at BET99 and over 50 at some Canadian betting sites. This isn’t always a reason to go for the under, but it makes sense here.
Pittsburgh’s defence is the fifth-best in the NFL, allowing just 18 points per game. The Steelers also do a good job of keeping quarterbacks quiet. Opposing QBs average just 0.88 touchdowns per game, the second-fewest in the NFL.
Joe Burrow has thrown three or more touchdowns in five of his last six games, including the last four consecutively, but Pittsburgh’s defence should have enough to keep him from running up the score on Sunday night.
- Steelers vs Bengals Pick 2: Under 49.5 Points @ -110 with BET99
Tee Higgins Anytime Touchdown
Despite liking Pittsburgh’s chances of stopping Joe Burrow from having a monster game, we don’t think any team in the NFL can truly keep him quiet right now. The former LSU quarterback is the current MVP favourite, with +170 odds at BET99, and could become the second QB in history to score four-plus touchdowns in five straight games (joining Peyton Manning).
The Steelers may be able to stop Burrow from having a truly monster game, but we still expect him to pass for multiple touchdowns. If that happens, expect to see Tee Higgins in the end zone on Sunday.
Higgins leads the Bengals in receiving yards with 758 yards. He scored two touchdowns in Madrid against the Falcons, bringing his total on the season to seven. No Cincinnati receiver has scored more.
