Despite beating the Cincinnati Bengals on the road in Week One, the Pittsburgh Steelers are underdogs at home this week in the rematch. According to Tipico Sportsbook, Pittsburgh is currently a five-point underdog to the Bengals despite coming off a big win over the New Orleans Saints.

In the first game of the regular season, the Steelers pulled off a 23-20 overtime win in large part due to a huge performance by the Steelers defense. A performance very similar to the one we saw last Sunday against the Saints.

The Bengals are currently 5-4 and coming off of their bye week. This is a tough team to get a read on as their season has been very up and down. The same can be said for the Steelers who are 3-6 but could easily be 5-4 if a few plays went their way.

Let us know in the comments if you are taking the Steelers and the points or do you think they can win this one outright?
