We’ve got a classic David vs. Goliath scenario on our hands in Buffalo. The Bills came into Sunday’s game as a whopping 14-point favorite over the Steelers, who are ushering in a new era with rookie Kenny Pickett making his first start as Pittsburgh’s starting quarterback after coming on in relief last week.
The Bills were a big favorite for good reason. Buffalo is 3-1 and came into Sunday’s game ranked second in the NFL in second defense and fifth in scoring offense. The Steelers, meanwhile, struggled to move the ball on offense through four games. Pittsburgh also still hasn’t found a way to be successful without T.J. Watt, as the Steelers are 0-7 all-time in games without the reigning Defensive Player of the Year.
Will the Bills cover the spread while making the Steelers 0-8 without Watt, or will Pickett lead Pittsburgh’s biggest upset since the Steelers’ successful 2005 playoff run? Check out our live blow below throughout Sunday’s game to find out.
