Baltimore at Pittsburgh

Last week I was big on the Ravens and Lions to go OVER the total. This week I am reversing that course with the Ravens. This is a typically bloody hard-fought, defensively focused division game. Ben Roethlisberger has been pedestrian this season with a QB rating in the bottom half of the NFL. And, he is without wide receivier Juju Smith-Schuster here thanks to a supsension. Based on some of his comments this year, including after last game, Big Ben seems a bit checked out on this whole football thing. He'll be facing one of the top defenses in the NFL as Baltimore is allowing just 17.2 points per game. Pittsburgh's defense is also excellent, allowing 17.7 per game. In AFC North games this season involving either of these two teams, an average of justjust 34.8 total points per game were scored. Dating back to last season, Pittsburgh is 20-10 to the UNDER. Under John Harbaugh, the Ravens are 71-57 UNDER in conference games and 26-14 UNDER after a big high scoring game in which 50+ points were scored. Take the UNDER here.
