Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals Odds featured a line of Steelers -3 ½ at BetUS.com heading into Sunday morning. This was a late afternoon game that will get plenty of action by kickoff. The line opened at Steelers -4 ½ and has only witnessed a one point drop. The betting action on this game is evenly balanced between both teams.
Pittsburgh owns this series, going 8-2 over the last 10 and having won the last 5 games against Cincinnati. The last four times they have beaten them by double digits.
The Steelers are 5-0 ATS in their last 5 vs. AFC North.
They are 9-4 ATS in their last 13 games following a S.U. loss, a very important stat we should point out.
The Bengals, on the other hand, are 4-10 ATS in their last 14 games following a ATS win.
The Bengals are 3-10 ATS in their last 13 vs. AFC.
Cincinnati is 1-5 ATS in their last 6 vs. AFC North.
Last week, the Bengals Antwan Odom was a one-man wrecking crew against the Packers, tallying five sacks. He now leads the league with seven sacks. The Steelers' offensive line has been vulnerable, giving up six sacks already this season. Should Odom get some pressure on Roethlisberger early, the Bengals may be able to force some turnovers.
Cincinnati quarterback Carson Palmer is highly inconsistent so it is anybody's guess which Palmer will show up at this game. It is hard to imagine the Bengals beating a team when Carson Palmer passes for under 200 yards and throws 2 INTs, but that is what they did in Green Bay
Traditionally, Pittsburgh has always orchestrated its offense based on a power running game. That is no longer the case. Roethlisberger is now the focal point, but there is no denying that the Steelers would like to improve on their 28th-ranked rushing offense.
Gambling911.com is all over Pittsburgh to cover this +4 line.
If we say this is "The Play of the Century" it will probably lose, so we won't say that. We're just thinking it.
