Bengals are 6-1 vs the number on the road this season and 4-0 as a favorite. Their defence has allowed 13 passing TD's against 7 road games vs 24 in their 6 home games. Conversely the Titans are 1-5 straight up at home and 0-6 vs the number. I agree it's not a great spot for the Bengals, but backing the Titans here would seem a risky move. I'd stay off that game.

[@stevemerril1485]

Bengals are definitely the better team in could possibly blow them out in that game just matters if they come focused.

[@g.a.6013]

@@cwhrein they won on the road against non-challenging teams. Early Panthers game, Giants, Browns, and the Cowboys. The Titans would seem to fit that bill but they also don't allow a huge number of passing yards on average like 176 yards per game. I love the Bengals but idk if they'll come in 🔥🥵 hot and ready to get the job done.

[@Lifcompany]

The eagles Struggled against Carolina last week. they have discord on the offensive side of the ball. I think the Steelers defense comes up big and the difference in this game Steelers win.

[@abtsports]

and Jalen Hurts is looking overrated

[@josephdell8056]

No Pickens for the Steelers , tough pick!!

The Pulblic this week will win it all

[@kevinfinnerty8414]

Seattle was my guess for the Big Public dog.

[@jeremyjenks902]

Mine as well. I think for good reason. The game could go either way, but I like Seattle +3.

[@ChrisBarry-h5h]

Mine was Cleveland

[@stevemerril1485]

I was surprised Buffalo wasn't a public dog this week, but probably because they lost last week, and line is only 2.5. Steelers as a public dog though does make sense especially at the big number of more than a field goal.

[@treeinch252]

Seattle has no Kenneth Walker this game. I think GB will be fine

What is the benefrit if any when looking at the before in summertime early lines to the lines now that may be different ???? Meaning can i handicap a game based off of in summer it was whoever - now they are underdogs or a bigger favorite than 1st projected ????????

[@stevemerril1485]

Just to show how different teams have under or overperformed based on preseason expectations, not really a handicapping factor.

[@toyotadivebros8689]

Hey steve are you saying stick with the eagles at 5 1/2

[@jaywalker2872]

Yep, bet the Eagles minus 5.5 points

[@stevemerril1485]

I like the Eagles

[@MagnaRads]

Going cold steve

[@5minutephilosopher401]

The Eagles/ Steelers is a classic fade the public spot. The Bears could be argued for as well since that division plays close games, BUT the other three are wishful thinking. A good rule is to not bet wishful thinking

[@mikelitoris4233]

@ philosopher So take the Eagles got it. Thank You

[@josephdell8056]

In some ways I would like to take the Bears + 7 but they seem like they have been having trouble scoring TDS and that is concerning !

[@StephenFallon-wt7lv]

Pittsburgh run game is slipping. I believe Phili will come to play today. A true statement game for both teams.

[@tizfrreecharm]

Good stuff; liking CIN and DEN to cover. As a Rams fan, rooting for GB, but not betting them.

Good luck on Sunday

Love these videos Steve you’re awesome

[@_BigTimer85]

PIT has an enormous coaching edge in this game. If the PIT D can slow down Barkley they will win OUTRIGHT

[@geehanna6285]

No chance, Barkley playing like a dog and no Pickens will be the difference

[@pandadelecto6752]

No Pickens tho

[@patrickmcadams31]

[@jimborgs]

Huge mismatch in offence and qb play . Will Levis is terrible and Burrow is very good. Bengals should be an 8-10 point favorite

[@RustyKuntz4547]

Going with Field Goals again this week like every other week.

[@shochuman1656]

Thanks Steve. I totally agree with your analysis on Philadelphia/Pittsburgh game. My best bet for the week 15 is Philadelphia. GL

[@ChrisBarry-h5h]

Mike Tomlin as a road dog ATS 18 and 5. Philly has covered one game as a favorite at home all year and that was a Thursday night vs. Washington. Pittsburgh will not overlook Philly due to the lack of respect they are receiving. Scoop and score for TJ Watt. Go Steelers!

[@donaldbiddy4210]

Love philly -5. Balanced attack aj and Jalen on same page.

[@andrewwolf1206]

Yeah. Bengals gave the cowboys plenty of chances to beat them. Stay away for me. Broncos are a lock here. I like the pats this week with the points; they made it onto my ML dogs ticket. I actually like the over the best for this game. Agree with the under for the viqueens and bears. No Pickens for Russ? Yeah, Philly all the way. Also like the over with Baker in San Diego I mean LA

[@stevemerril1485]

Probably Tua this week just because Steelers have an excellent defensive line

Mr Steve I see RB’S with Philly ,lions & Ravens player props .

[@landrythelegend6979]

I agree with most, but I think Cincinnati will win big today

[@teeks8951]

The Rams were a public dog last week and the niners were the quality team and they lost. The Panthers at times last week looked like they could beat the eagles. I think the eagles collapse here and lay an egg. I'm taking the points and the broncos though i think they could win it outright.

[@stevemerril1485]

Eagles struggled in December last year

[@mohamedhugais7087]

Bengals gonna win. Public has won 11 straight weeks

[@briandowdy2115]

Steelers opened +4.5, now +5.5 and I see +6. If public is on Steelers, does the line movement mean sharp $ is heavy on Eagles? Not getting best number now
