Prediction

Not much to predict for this one. Pittsburgh is a Super Bowl contender facing their division rival Bengals that are having a nightmare season. The Steelers are coming off two tough losses after being undefeated, and they’ll hit the reset button against a depleted team. This one could get ugly quick, but expect the Steelers led by Mike Tomlin to come out prepared to handle business on Monday Night Football. The Steelers are favorited by 14 points, a large number, but the public bet has 61% of people putting their money on it.
