Big Ben is more accurate than Cam and with the short week and travel, I like the STEELERS on THursday night.




The Steelers are coming into the game with a great defense and that has been able to stop the run really well. However, the Steelers are also keeping the opponent out of the end zone really well on the year so far. The Steelers offense will be able to do really well on the passing side of the ball against the Panthers who are not that strong of a passing defense. Look for the Panthers defense to struggle as the Steelers are able to bring home a win here by 13 or more points in my projection.
