The Steelers are 11-5-1 against the spread in their last 17 games played in October, are 21-8-2 against the number in their last 31 road games versus a team with a winning home record and are 20-8 at the betting window in their last 28 games after allowing more than 150 yards rushing in their previous game.

OUR PREDICTION: The under is 3-1-1 in the last five meetings between these two teams. Baltimore’s offense is a mess due to an offensive line held with duct tape and an ineffective Joe Flacco (who missed all of preseason with a back injury). The Ravens are also better defensively than they showed last week and should fair well against a Steelers offense that is out of sync early in the season.
