This is going to be a great game between two teams that have shown promise early on this season.
The Steelers are ravaged by injuries right now, with Joe Haden and Devin Bush unable to play last week, and their two best players (T.J. Watt, Diontae Johnson) suffering injuries during the game. With Ben Roethlisberger also dealing with a pec issue, there's no way Pittsburgh should be more than 3-point fav against anyone.

The Bengals may have been sitting at 2-0 right now if Joe Burrow doesn't throw three picks on three straight passes.


The Bengals should pile on the points in the game with Joe Burrow finding Tee Higgins and Ja'Marr Chase open downfield in one-on-one coverage against the Steelers' cornerbacks while Joe Mixon gashed the Steelers defense on the ground. The Bengals should also limit the Steelers' offense with Larry Ogunjobi and Trey Hendrickson making plays in the trenches




I think Cincy is a LIVE DOG in this early kickoff with a good chance of pulling off an outright win.
