Steelers (-3.5) Projected To Cover
Back on November 15 of last season, the Steelers welcomed Joe Burrow and the Bengals to Heinz Field and promptly embarrassed them with a 36-10 beatdown.
In that game, Burrow went 21-40 with 213 yards and a touchdown, but was under constant pressure and sacked four times.
This is a much better Bengals team, with Ja’Marr Chase, Tyler Boyd, Tee Higgins and Joe Mixon as offensive weapons, but BetQL is still giving the edge to Pittsburgh at home despite their up-and-down play through two weeks.
