Steelers open as home favorites to Bills this week

The Steelers are favored at home but not by much to the Buffalo Bills.

This week the Pittsburgh Steelers will have their final home game of the season when they take on the Buffalo Bills. The Steelers are playing for their playoff lives every week and with two road games to wrap up the season, they need a little more of the magic they have been playing with the last eight weeks.

The opening line for this week’s game on Bet MGM shows the Steelers as slight 2.5-point favorites. Considering the Bills are currently 9-4 and ahead of the Steelers in the playoff standings, this is generous.

Pittsburgh is 16-9 lifetime in the series and have won the last six and are 9-1 in the last 10. This game will be on Sunday Night Football and Pittsburgh is always a tough out on prime time TV.
