The Pittsburgh Steelers find themselves on the wrong end of a two-game losing streak and in something of a late-season collapse. But even the last few weeks of awful play can’t deter oddsmakers from keeping the faith in the Steelers this week against the Cincinnati Bengals.
BetMGM has the Steelers as 12-point road favorites. A bit generous perhaps? History says no. Since 2000, the Steelers are 34-9 against the Bengals and the last time the Bengals beat the Steelers was in 2015.
The Steelers have plenty to play for this weekend. Sitting at 11-2, if the Steelers can beat the Bengals they will win the AFC North crown. This would then complicate things for Pittsburgh with two games left to play.
But for now, the goal is to just find a way to get back on track enough to get past the 2-10-1 Bengals.
