The Cincinnati Bengals are 2-5-1 straight up, but they're a solid 6-2 ATS on the season. Of their five losses, only one game was decided by more than five points and I think they'll keep it relatively close here in this divisional matchup with Pittsburgh.

While the Steelers are 8-0 SU and 6-2 ATS on the season, note that they've won by more than a touchdown only three times and each of their last five games has been decided by five points or fewer. It's not easy to blow out teams when ranking 25th for total offense and Pittsburgh just barely beat Dallas as a 14-point favorite last week. As a matter of fact, the Cowboys with fourth-string QB Garrett Gilbert and the helm outgained the Steelers by nine yards and Baltimore outgained Pittsburgh by a whopping 236 yards the week before that.

Bengals are 11-5 ATS in their last 16 road games. Bengals are 11-4 ATS in their last 15 games as a road underdog.

To me, it's a no brainer to fade the Steelers in this matchup.
