Pittsburgh -10
Numerous injuries have the Bengals trying just to field a team tonite much less try to cover the spread. Ocho Cinco also deactivated after breaking a team rule will make options for Ryan Fitzpatrick even more limited. Throw in the fact that Pittsburgh's defense is playing outstanding makes me believe that Cincy will struggle to score in double digits.
Weather may be a factor, but Big Ben is fine throwing in any conditions and Wille Parker should be able to get the running game going. I feel the spread is at least 4 points off based on Cincy's performance against Philly last Sunday. Remember Philly was favored by 9.5 in that one. Shouldn't Pitt be at least 14 point favorites? Time will tell, but I'm taking the Steelers.
Good luck to all.
