Baltimore Ravens (8-8) at Pittsburgh Steelers (9-7)
The Browns were my top pick last week as 4.5-point home underdogs against the Steelers, but that was because the Steelers were missing a lot of key personnel and were in the type of spot where they have historically struggled under head coach Mike Tomlin, going 7-24 ATS as road favorites of 3.5 or more after a win since his first season in 2007. Fortunately for the Steelers, the opposite is also true, as they are 9-2 ATS and straight up as home underdogs of 3.5 or more during that stretch, including 4-1 ATS after a loss.
The Steelers are also healthier this week. They are still without top wide receiver DK Metcalf and also lost talented tight end Darnell Washington last week, but they get back arguably their best offensive lineman Isaac Seumalo, stud edge defender TJ Watt, and cornerback James Pierre, who has been their best cornerback this season when in the lineup. This isn’t a big play, but I like the Steelers to bounce back with a more complete team in a better spot.
