The Pittsburgh Steelers are heavily favored in NFL betting online on Sunday as they host the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Steelers are coming off a huge win last week against the Baltimore Ravens and they are expected to have little trouble in NFL betting against the Bengals.
Pittsburgh -9, total 40.5 at SBG Global
The Steelers got a hard fought win last week against the Baltimore Ravens so the only concern for Pittsburgh in this game is a letdown against the rotten Bengals. It may not matter though as Cincinnati is not a good football team. The Bengals gave a good effort last week but still gave the game away against the New Orleans Saints. They may just quit this week against the Steelers.
Bungles Have Lost Nine Straight
The Cincinnati Bengals or Bungles as they are oftentimes called have now lost nine straight since starting the season 2-1. Cincinnati proved just how incompetent they are in last week’s loss to New Orleans. With the Saints likely to set up for a tying field goal, the Bengals jumped offside and gave New Orleans a first down. The Saints scored a TD on the next play and the Bungles had given another game away. Cincinnati has now lost nine times in a row for only the third time in franchise history. The Bengals record for consecutive losses is 11 and they could break that mark before this season is over.
Steelers Lead the AFC North
The Steelers gutted out a win last week at Baltimore as Troy Polamalu made a huge play and Ben Roethlisberger proved just how tough he was. Polamalu forced a fumble late in the game and Roethlisberger threw a game winning TD pass to Isaac Redman as the Steelers beat the Ravens 13-10. Roethlisberger broke his nose and was playing on a bad right foot and still went 22 for 38 for 253 yards.
Series History
The Steelers have won 7 of the last 10 games straight up against the Bengals and they are 7-3 against the NFL betting online number. Last month the Steelers won 27-21 at Cincinnati and covered the five-point spread. That game went over the total and four of the last five in the series have gone over the NFL betting total.
