NFL Week 1 Odds, Picks & Predictions: Steelers vs. Bengals

The Steelers named Mitch Trubisky the starter after he beat out rookie Kenny Pickett. He may find holes in the Bengals’ secondary, which gave up 4,222 yards last season. However, there are many concerns with the offensive line.

Joe Mixon should have his way like he did last year. He averaged 5.0 and 5.89 yards per attempt in his two games against Pittsburgh. The Steelers gave up a league-worst five yards per attempt last season and did not do much to fix the issue. Expect the Bengals to establish the run early to negate the pass rush of T.J. Watt, who led the league with 22.5 sacks.

The Steelers scored 10 points in each loss to the Bengals last season and will likely score a similar amount this week. The improved offensive line of the Bengals should help them coast to an easy victory.
