BUFFALO BILLS in their AFC clash with the Cincinnati Bengals. As of 2:45 a.m. pacific, the number I see is Buffalo +3' points. Bear in mind, as long as the book is offering you between 2'and 4 in a game like this, it's advisable to buy the half point up.
7-Unit Play. Take #458 Pittsburgh (-8) over Jacksonville (1 p.m., Sunday, Oct. 8)
The Steelers have a nasty habit of playing up and down to their level of competition. However, their main struggles in that category have come on the road. This team, when clicking on all cylinders, is capable of delivering a total ass-whooping at home and that is what I think will be the case here. This is just Pittsburgh's second home game so their home field advantage really hasn't had a chance to kick in. But they buried Minnesota in that lone game at Heinz and I think it will be even worse against the Jaguars. Blake Bortles is horrific. He has thrown more pick-sixes at this stage of his career than any other quarterback in NFL history through four seasons. He was awful last week and the Jaguars couldn't even beat that pathetic excuse for a Jets team. He's a loser. And when the Steelers get a lead in this one Bortles won't be the one to shoot them back into it. Further, this is Jacksonville's third road game in a row. They played in London, came back and went to New York, and now have to fly up to Pittsburgh. This team has to be exhausted without a bye week in between to settle things. The Steelers see the Patriots struggling and they hear all the talk about the Chiefs. I think that they will go out and get a statement win to remind everyone that this team has as much talent as any team in the AFC and they are still a threat. I'll be surprised if this one stays within 20 points. any Burns out there.
