Betting line for Steelers vs Bills holds after postponement

On Saturday it was announced that the Wild Card playoff game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills was being postponed until Monday afternoon due to a massive snowstorm coming into the Orchard Park area and cited safety as the primary reason for the move.

Monday’s weather isn’t going to be a drastic improvement over Sunday but if it creates a safer environment for all involved, it had to be done. But did the postponement do anything for the oddsmakers?

The short answer is no. Even hours after the announcement, the line for this week’s game according to BetMGM still had the Steelers as massive 10-point underdogs to the Bills.

Meanwhile the over/under for total points is currently 37. This number seems incredibly generous given the weather and potential field conditions. I would definitely take the under in this one and it is hard to see the Bills pulling away and winning by over 10 so I would take the points as well.
