Bills at Steelers picks and predictions
Prediction
Steelers 27, Bills 16
Moneyline
PASS.
The Steelers (-135) have a more commanding offense, but anything is possible in the preseason, so it may be worth a sprinkle on the Bills (+115).
Against the spread
BET PITTSBURGH -1.5 (-110).
With QB Russell Wilson set to see playing time for Pittsburgh Saturday, followed by Fields and Allen, expect a quick start against the Bills. The Buffalo defense allowed 33 points in Week 1 and has not made the changes to adjust quickly enough against two 1st-team caliber quarterbacks who are capable of captaining high-octane offenses.
Over/Under
BET OVER 38.5 (-110).
In their respective openers, both teams allowed a combined 53 points on defense. While both defenses should settle in a bit in Week 2, the offensive production for both should, as well. Expect Pittsburgh to carry more of the load, but both offenses should produce more points Saturday.
