The Pittsburgh Steelers (11-2) visit the Cincinnati Bengals (2-10-1) in the Week 15 Monday Night Football game for an 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. Here’s a look at the early Bengals-Steelers betting odds and lines at BetMGM Sportsbook.
The Pittsburgh Steelers lost 26-15 at the Buffalo Bills in the Week 14 Sunday Night Football game. The Steelers, who were 2-point underdogs, suffered a second consecutive defeat after starting the season 11-0. They managed just 47 rushing yards and failed to score at least 20 points for a third game in a row. QB Ben Roethlisberger finished with 187 passing yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions. On the bright side, they clinched a playoff berth earlier in the day when the Miami Dolphins lost to the Kansas City Chiefs. Plus, they recorded a sack in an NFL-record 70 consecutive regular-season games, breaking a tie with the 1999-2003 Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Bengals lost at home to their former starting QB Andy Dalton (2 TDs) and the Dallas Cowboys 30-7 in Week 14. Cincinnati, which was a 3-point underdog, finished with more total yards (309 to 272), but fumbled the ball 3 times, while Dallas had zero turnovers. QB Brandon Allen (27 of 36 pass attempts) threw for 217 yards with 1 TD, a 5-yard pass to WR A.J. Green (team highs: 62 receptions, 62 receiving yards). Cincy has lost 5 in a row and failed to score at least 18 points in each game during the stretch. At 2-10-1, the Bengals are looking at the No. 3 overall draft pick, just behind the Jacksonville Jaguars (1-12) and the New York Jets (0-13) – five teams are tied at 4-9.
