Somehow they are tied for the best record in the NFL, but even fans and media in New England look at the Pats and can\u2019t quite fathom how they have won six of eight games so far this season.<\/p>\n<p>Not even Tom Brady is a sure thing anymore. Brady was outplayed by rookie Colt McCoy in Cleveland last weekend, and while it may have been the highlight of McCoy\u2019s pro life, it\u2019s the guy with the long hair who is now reevaluating things heading into this Sunday night\u2019s battle in Pittsburgh.  <!-- Affiliate Code Do NOT Modify--><a href=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/clickthrgh.asp?btag=a_3953b_747\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/affiliates.commissionaccount.com\/processing\/impressions.asp?btag=a_3953b_747\" border=\"0\" alt=\"Sports Betting at Sportsbook.com\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a><!-- End affiliate Code--><\/p>\n<p>The Patriots\u2019 running game is average at best, the pass rush is non-existent and NE uses a variation of the prevent defense for the entire game, forcing teams to go on long, clock-killing drives. Bill Belichick seems to be telling his team to keep it close and he\u2019ll think of something in the fourth quarter.<\/p>\n<p>While the Patriots seem to be searching for an identity in the post-Moss Era, the 6-2 Steelers will greet NE Sunday with same-old, same-old. Pound the ball and soften up the defense to create seams for the receivers, and on defense pressure the quarterback and offensive line until it starts to crack. <\/p>\n<p>As the Monday Night Football TV crew put it, the Steelers don\u2019t game plan too much \u2013 they just work to perfect what they already do well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Trends<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<p>Over is 8-2 in NE last 10 games overall.<br \/>\nOver is 7-2 in NE last 9 vs. AFC.<br \/>\nOver is 5-2-1 in NE last 8 games in November.<br \/>\nPIT are 2-5-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.<br \/>\nPIT are 5-2-1 ATS in their last 8 games on grass.<br \/>\nOver is 7-3-1 in PIT last 11 vs. AFC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The picks: <\/strong> Tough call on this one because historically the Patriots have played well against the Steelers (look it up \u2013 even the Pete Carroll Pats outplayed the Bill Cowher Steelers before Brady arrived in Foxboro). <\/p>\n<p>But the Steelers just have too many good players on both sides of the ball for NE to contend with. Belichick is able to take away what a team does best, but a well-balanced club gives the Pats trouble. <\/p>\n<p>Liking the Steelers to cover this one, with a solid play on the under as the Pats try to turn this one in a taffy pull they can steal late.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Comment on this game below, hit us with your pregame NFL picks and predictions&#8230;<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>NFL BETTING SEASON PROMO: Get a BIG Signup Bonus Today from The World&#8217;s Biggest Sportsbook &#8211; SPORTSBOOK.COM!
