Pittsburgh at Buffalo

Premium Pick

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made their way above .500 as they head to Buffalo, at 7-5 for the season. The Steelers have won and covered their last three games. It looks like the defense is back as the last three opponents have run the ball for a combined 180 yards, or 60 yards a game. Here is the issue, those three teams (the New York Giants, Cleveland, and Indianapolis) are among the worst running teams in football. The Bills are one of the best, topping the 150-yard mark in five straight games. The weather in Buffalo is supposed to be cold and snowy, and that will make the running game more vital than usual. Big Ben is 31-12 SU in his last 43 home games, but 22-22 SU in his last 44 on the road. The Bills have had a +66 yard rushing advantage over their opponents at home on the season, and that should be the difference here. Make the play on Buffalo on the moneyline.
