Ravens +10.5
With so much unknown, I don’t love either side of the spread or total. But as I alluded to earlier, I’m looking for something to make the final few hours of the workday go by fast. I’m inclined to take the Ravens with the extra half point we’re seeing at BetMGM.
Their defense is stout, and they might be undefeated, but the Steelers have been beneficiaries of one of the easiest schedules in the NFL. Remember, it was just a couple of weeks ago that the Steelers nearly slipped up to the Garret Gilbert-led Dallas Cowboys. Pittsburgh had to reach the end zone twice in the fourth quarter to erase a 10-point deficit.
It’s also worth noting that the Steelers will be without running back James Conner. Conner will be replaced by Benny Snell, which shouldn’t be much of a downgrade.
Under 42
I’m happy to take Under 42 at FanDuel. Though the Ravens lose a ton on offense, they are a bit healthier on the defensive side of the ball than they have been in recent weeks. Expect a lot of running on behalf of the Ravens, albeit less efficiently than when Jackson is taking the snaps.
