How crazy has the Steelers\u2019 schedule been so far? They\u2019ve played on Sunday night twice and then they had that Monday nighter against the Baltimore Ravens just a couple of weeks ago. The Steelers haven\u2019t played on a Sunday afternoon since their first game of the season. It will be nice to see the Steelers in the morning here on the West Coast. <!--more--><\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons is because this is one of the best online betting teams in the NFL right now. The Steelers have been terrific against the online wagering spread. They didn\u2019t cover versus the Cleveland Browns in week two, but they did cover versus the Baltimore Ravens and the Jacksonville Jaguars recently.<\/p>\n<p>The Cincinnati Bengals are just a terrible team. They played a spirited game two Sundays ago in Dallas, but that had more to do with the fact that the Cowboys are overrated than the fact that the Bengals are even close to respectable. Keith Rivers is a terrific linebacker but he can\u2019t dominate a game. No single player can in the NFL any more.<\/p>\n<p>Against the BetUS online betting spread, as expected, the Bengals haven\u2019t been that great. One thing NFL betting fans should note, though, is that the Bengals can beat an online wagering spread when they are big underdogs.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.betus.com\/ats\/11892\/mid\/1414\/promo\/football\/gameoftheweek\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/a>They did so versus the New York Giants and they do so versus the Dallas Cowboys.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are the BetUS online sportsbook betting odds for this game.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Kick-off: 10\/19\/2008 1:00 pm est.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Pittsburgh Steelers\t &#8211; 10 &#8211; 110\t &#8211; 500\t O 35 \u00bd &#8211; 110<br \/>\nCincinnati Bengals\t + 10 &#8211; 110\t + 400\t U 35 \u00bd &#8211; 110<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are a few online wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Pittsburgh Steelers are 1 and 4 in their last 5 games versus a rival from the AFC North.<br \/>\nThe Pittsburgh Steelers are 4 and 1 against the spread in the last 5 meetings between these two teams.<br \/>\nThe Cincinnati Bengals are 2 and 5 against the spread in their last 7 home games.<br \/>\nThe Road team is 6 and 1 against the spread in the last 7 meetings between these two teams.<\/p>\n<p>Every trend points to the Pittsburgh Steelers covering the BetUS online wagering spread in this game. But I can\u2019t do it. I just can\u2019t give up 10 points to the Steelers on the road.<\/p>\n<p>I understand that Pittsburgh has been a solid team for NFL betting fans since the season started, but there\u2019s something about this game that doesn\u2019t feel right. The Bengals are still a professional football team. Sure, they\u2019re awful, but they have enough on offense to put up a lot of points and the Steelers are hurting at the running back position.<\/p>\n<h3>NFL Week 7 Prediction:<\/h3>\n<p>I\u2019m going to go against the trends in this one and put an online wager on the Cincinnati Bengals at + 10.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Point spread for the week 7 NFL clash between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals plus the betting spreads, and betting trends for nfl football gambling.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":68,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1005],"tags":[2210,3295,2209,164,3457,2144,504,66502,834,3458,1789,2143,2207,1028,1186,3459,3039,3065],"class_list":["post-2822","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-point-spreads","tag-ben-roethlisberger","tag-bet-on-bengals","tag-bet-on-steelers","tag-betting-lines","tag-carson-palmer","tag-cincinnati-bengals","tag-gambling-odds","tag-nfl","tag-nfl-lines","tag-ocho-cinqo","tag-pittsburgh-steelers","tag-predict-nfl-games","tag-prediction-articles","tag-predictions","tag-spread","tag-steelers-vs-bengals","tag-week-7","tag-week-7-odds"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2822","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/68"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2822"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2822\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":103313,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2822\/revisions\/103313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2822"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2822"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/capperspicks.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2822"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
