Steelers at Broncos picks and predictions
Prediction
Steelers 19, Broncos 13
Moneyline
QB Justin Fields will get the start for the Steelers (-150) again this week. The offense was not efficient, but it didn’t have to be, as the defense picked off Falcons QB Kirk Cousins twice and had 3 total takeaways.
Nix turned the ball over multiple times in Week 1.
Pittsburgh will get in the end zone once, but the defense will shut down the Denver offense like it did to Atlanta.
But with only a 2.5-point spread and better odds with that, go with the spread.
PASS.
Against the spread
To cover this spread, the Steelers have to win by only a field goal. Boswell only made 6 of those in the opener.
Denver only scored 1 TD last week.
BET STEELERS -2.5 (-115).
Over/Under
The Steelers won’t score a lot of points, as Fields has been a checkdown king so far. The Broncos certainly won’t score much on this Pittsburgh defense, especially if they’re turning the ball over.
Don’t expect many points in this game at all.
BET UNDER 36.5 (-110).
