Pittsburgh<\/strong><\/p>\nPittsburgh needs this one to keep their season alive. \u00a0They have lost 4 of their past 5 games and must be elated to see the Bengals coming to town. \u00a0 [soliloquy id=”82219″]<\/p>\n
Some of those losses were with their starting QB on the shelf but Big Ben has been back the last two weeks and still not able to pull the team back into the winning column…<\/p>\n
The Steelers beat Cincinnati the first time around this year with great balance.<\/p>\n
Running back Jonathan Dwyer had a season high 122 yards on the ground as the Steelers owned the time of possession battle, holding the ball for 37 minutes. \u00a0Dwyer hasn\u2019t had more than 56 yards in the six weeks since putting more pressure on the passing game. \u00a0The more balance they can have the better their chances are as the Bengals are streaking right now…<\/p>\n
The Steelers have dominated the Bengals without a doubt but maybe things are beginning to change.<\/p>\n
If you like the Steelers you will be warmed by the fact that the last 8 times they have beaten Cincinnati they have also won ATS.<\/p>\n
The question is whether they have another win in them right now.<\/p>\n
