NFL Week 6 Early Odds & Predictions: Buccaneers vs. Steelers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Pittsburgh Steelers
Kenny Pickett finally took over the starting role in Pittsburgh, and he was rewarded by having to face Josh Allen and Tom Brady in his first two starts. The Bills steamrolled the Steelers. while the Buccaneers’ offense hasn't looked great this season, the defense is going to make it very hard for the Steelers' offense to do much of anything this week.
Neither one of these teams has been very good against the spread, with the Buccaneers coming in at 2-3 and the Steelers entering at 1-3-1. However, until Pickett and the Steelers prove they can stay in games, they're going to be huge underdogs, especially when playing big-name opponents. Don't be surprised if this line gets into double digits.
Current Line: Buccaneers -8
Predicted Final Line: Buccaneers -9.5
