Why Bet on the Denver Broncos?

It was a good run for the Broncos, who started the season with three consecutive wins before losing to the Baltimore Ravens last Sunday, 23-7. In their losing efforts, Drew Lock had to take over for Teddy Bridgewater after the starting quarterback suffered a concussion during the game. Bridgewater left the field with 65 yards on 7-of-16 passing and a touchdown.

Meanwhile, Lock finished the night with 113 yards and an interception on 12-of-21 passing. Melvin Gordon and Javonte Williams finished the game with 56 and 48 rushing yards, respectively. On the receiving end, Courtland Sutton and Noah Fant combined for 93 receiving yards while the latter scored a touchdown on 6 receptions.

On defense, Kareem Jackson was on his toes the entire time after recording a team-high 11 tackles (9 solo). Justin Simmons and Patrick Surtain II had 6 solo tackles apiece, while A.J. Johnson got a hold of 7 tackles (5 solo).

Losing Teddy Bridgewater is a huge hit for the Broncos in the upcoming game. The quarterback finds his way to the questionable list, along with wide receiver Diontae Spencer and right cornerback Pat Surtain II, both suffering from a chest injury. However, if Drew Lock can deliver and improve on his game, it should relieve some of the pressure this weekend.

Why Bet on the Pittsburgh Steelers?

The Steelers are having an underwhelming season with their 1-3 overall record. In their last game against the Packers, the team trailed in total yards and rushing yards. Ben Roethlisberger ended the night with 232 yards on 26-of-40 passing, including 1 touchdown and 1 interception. Najee Harris was the only player that gave life to the rushing attack, producing 62 yards and 1 touchdown on 15 carries.

Meanwhile, Diontae Johnson had a team-high 92 yards and 1 touchdown on 9 receptions. James Washington had 69 yards and 4 receptions, while Najee Harris had 29 yards on 6 receptions.

Defensively, Minkah Fitzpatrick guided the corps to 8 tackles (6 solo) and Terrell Edmunds was second best with 7 tackles (6 solo). The duo of Joe Schobert and Cameron Heyward documented 8 tackles (3 solo) apiece. T.J Watt and Devin Bush Jr. combined for 3 sacks by the end of the game.

Two players remain questionable before the game, including left tackle Kevin Dotson and right cornerback Cameron Sutton. It’s going to be tough without the two key players, Pittsburgh needs to step up if they want to keep the Broncos in their sights.

Broncos vs. Steelers Expert Betting Predictions

Although the Steelers have home-field advantage in this contest, inconsistencies on their play will add to the difficulty. The team has the firepower and the talent to make things close, which means covering the spread should be doable for Pittsburgh. A win is not off the table, but they have to be at their best. On the other hand, the Broncos are eager to turn things around and regain the momentum they recently lost. If Vic Fangio and company pick up the pace right away, they might back their opponents into a corner and bring this one home.
