Preview
The Miami Dolphins will host the Pittsburgh Steelers on Thursday Night Football at the FirstEnergy Stadium. These met twice last season and the Steelers won both games 26-14 at home and 15-10 on the road but Big Ben was the quarterback.
Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers have shown very poor offense so far as they lost 14-17 vs Patriots last Sunday. For the Steelers, whose offense sputtered for considerable stretches as it tried to establish any sort of rhythm, Mitch Trubisky passed for 168 yards with a touchdown and an interception. "We need that spark," said Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson. "We have to bring that spark each and every week. We're going to be fine. We have to come off the ball with a purpose and we'll be good." He has been Trubisky’s top target, catching 13 passes for 112 yards.
The Steelers defense allowed 252 passing yards and 124 rushing yds vs Patriots 195 yards and only 17 points forcing 1 interception. They stopped them in 17 of 26 3rd downs attempts.
Miami Dolphins
The Dolphins have been pretty amazing in the first 3 games of the season as they already beat the Patriots 20-7, the Ravens 42-38 and the Bills 21-19. Tua Tagovailoia one of the hottest quarterbacks right now and 2nd in the NFL with 925 yards 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Jaylen Waddle is leading the team in yards received with 342 in 19 receptions and 3 touchdowns while Chase Edmonds has 79 rushing yards in 23 carries and 2 touchdowns.
The Dolphins defense had a great game in week 1 holding the Pats to only 7 points but then were passed by the Ravens and bounced back last Sunday vs Bills one of the toughest offenses in the league.
BETTING TRENDS
Pittsburgh are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games against Miami.
Pittsburgh are 7-2 SU in their last 9 games against Miami.
Pittsburgh are 2-7 SU in their last 9 games on the road.
The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Pittsburgh's last 7 games when playing on the road against Miami.
Miami are 10-5 ATS in their last 15 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 11 of Miami's last 16 games.
Miami are 11-4 SU in their last 15 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 9 of Miami's last 13 games against Pittsburgh.
Prediction
The Steelers offense is not looking good with Trubisky leading them and if it wasn't enough they lost their best defensive player in TJ Watt but they will now have Pickett starting for this game which I believe should give them better chances to be better offensively. The Dolphins played great offense against the Jets but will face a tough Steelers defense that held the Patriots to only 17 points. This should be a close game and I think Pickett can keep this game close. Take the Steelers to cover.
PICK: Steelers +7.5 (-110)
