Pittsburgh at Tennessee

The Pittsburgh Steelers really gutted one out at home vs. a good Atlanta team last week, relying on defense and running. It took them until overtime to finally get in the end zone as Dennis Dixon struggled. The offense is going to continue to struggle without Big Ben for the next three games. Mike Tomlin is no dummy and he knows the recipe for success right now - defense and low-risk offense. The Pitt defense is always good, but I expect the elevated level of play to continue without Ben to guide the offense. Tennessee roared past Oakland eating up over 200 yards on the ground, with Chris Johnson leading the way. The yards will not come easy against the Steelers, and Vince Young is not an accurate deep-threat passer. It sets the stage for another battle for field position to win this one. These teams meet the overall tendencies of week two as Tennessee is 10-3 to the UNDER in week two, while Pittsburgh has played five straight to the UNDER in week two.
