Moneyline: Bengals —, Steelers — Point Spread: Bengals —, Steelers — Total: Over —, Under —
The Cincinnati Bengals head to Acrisure Stadium to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in a pivotal January 5th matchup. The Bengals, led by Joe Burrow, boast a formidable passing attack, with Burrow throwing for 4,229 yards and 39 touchdowns this season. Ja’Marr Chase has been a standout target, amassing 1,510 yards and 16 touchdowns. Despite their offensive prowess, the Bengals face significant challenges due to numerous injuries, particularly on defense, which could impact their ability to contain Pittsburgh’s offense. The Steelers, with Russell Wilson under center, have been efficient, and Najee Harris provides a solid ground game with over 1,000 rushing yards. Pittsburgh’s defense, although not without its own injury concerns, has been relatively effective, ranking higher in defensive efficiency compared to Cincinnati. Given the Bengals’ injury-depleted roster and the Steelers’ balanced attack, expect a competitive game with Pittsburgh having a slight edge. The game’s total points could be influenced by both teams’ offensive capabilities and defensive vulnerabilities.
