The NFL playoff fun continues tonight as there are two more playoff games to bet on. First, the Pittsburgh Steelers go into Buffalo to take on the Bills in a game sure to be cold and covered with snow. The Steelers come in as a heavy underdog and many believe this should be an easy win for the Bills. Not so fast, as the Steelers have done nothing this year but exceed expectations. Just by getting into the playoffs, they did what many believed they could not. Lets get into it.
Steelers +10 O38.5 +400
Bills -10 O38.5 -550
Even Vegas thinks this should be an easy win but, the Steelers are 5-3 against the spread in eight road games this season and they have Mike Tomlin and that is worth its weight in gold. Truly after that there is not much. Wide receiver George Pickens, who played in all 17 games this year. He set career highs in catches (63), receiving yards (1,140) and receiving TDs (5) this season. He has 125 or more receiving yards in two of his past three games is a huge weapon for the Steelers and may be a great prop later.
The Bill on the other hand have Josh Allen and he has been on fire. The Bills are 4-5-1 ATS in their last 10 games overall so there is that but when you have a QB like Allen that pulls a win out of thin air, it may mean more. The Pittsburgh defense will want to pressure Allen as he has a tendency to give the ball up. Getting turnovers for the Steeler’s defense will be a must today. In Buffalo with Josh Allen, take the Bills and the$$$
OVER/UNDER
14 of Buffalo’s 17 games this season finished with more than 37 points, while the Steelers have averaged 27 PPG since Mason Rudolph took over three weeks ago. Even with the weather the way it is this should still be a game they both throw the ball, alot. The Pittsburgh defense will be without Watt today and that will hurt that rush, could mean a big passing day for Allen. Take the over and the$$$
EAGLES v BUCCANEERS
Spread Total Win
Eagles -3 O43.5 -155
Buccaneers +3 O43.5 +130
This should be the game of the day. The Eagles are the defending NFC champs and they started the season off with a look of a champion. Over th lastquarter of the season, the tide changed and the Eagles look like a team in need of a lot of help. The defense has not been able to stop a cold much less an offense. Their offense has not been any better with injuries stacking up at the wrong time of year. Can they look like the Eagles of last season or continue in the downward direction they have been on?
The Buccaneers have just been steady, not bad, not real good, just steady and that may be all they need for a win today. They closed the regular season on a 5-1 SU streak (4-2 ATS). Where this one may be won is with the Bucs defense. They are only allowing 19 points per game and have turned into one of the best units in the NFL heading into the postseason. The Bucs are coming into the game having won 5 of their last 6 games with this defense playing lights out. With all the Eagles problems and injuries and the Bucs D take Tampa and the $$$
OVER/UNDER
The Eagles defense allowed 25 points per game, but that has jumped to 30 points per game in the last 6. The offense has been able to put up points and the Eagles even with injuries D’Andre Swift and DeVonta Smith should make plenty of plays. Then add in Tampa Bay going 2-6 O/U at home and Philadelphia finishing 2-7 O/U as a visitor with rain and wind all game and with the Eagles D and Tampa’s D. Take the under and the $$$.
