Expert Betting Tips
The Pittsburgh Steelers appear to have an advantage in this matchup. The Steelers have struggled offensively for much of the season, leading to the recent firing of offensive coordinator Matt Canada. The change in leadership could inject new energy into the Steelers' offense. Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Bengals face challenges without Joe Burrow, and the Steelers' formidable pass rush adds to the difficulties for the Bengals. Given these factors, it seems that the Steelers may have the upper hand in this game.
