Cincinnati at Pittsburgh

Premium Pick

Pittsburgh may be in serious trouble as Ben Roethlisberger (pectoral) is injured and is generously listed as probable for this game, but even so, the Steelers come off a home loss to Las Vegas as Big Ben finished 27 of 40 for 295 yards with an interception. Pittsburgh managed just 39 yards on the ground on 14 carries. If Roethlisberger can't go, then it gets scary as Mason Rudolph still is the backup QB with Dwayne Haskins next in line. The Steelers did beat Buffalo in Week 1, but they have lost six of their past eight games dating to last season, including a 27-17 defeat against the Bengals as a 14.5-point favorite. Cincinnati hung tough against the Bears before losing 20-17 as Joe Burrow threw 3 straight picks at one point, but he also threw 2 TD passes. It was only Burrow's second game since the devastating injury he suffered last season, and he will improve as the season goes on. Cincinnati is 13-3 ATS in Week 3 and 21-10-2 ATS its past 33 September games. Pittsburgh is 0-5 ATS its last five as a favorite and 2-5 ATS following a loss. The OVER is 7-3 in Cincy's past 10 games after an ATS loss, and the Steelers are 11-5 OVER in Week 3. Take the Bengals and the OVER.
