The Pittsburgh Steelers are on a hot streak in this preseason of the National Football League (NFL), as they are coming off two consecutive victories. The first, against the Seahawks (32-25) and the second, against the Jaguars (16-15).

Despite these two wins, a more comfortable victory over the Jaguars, who are not regarded as one of the dominant teams in their division, was initially predicted. That’s why next Sunday’s Aug. 28 matchup against the Lions will be vital to find out what the Steelers are in for in the 103rd NFL season.

This JefeBet article provides various betting odds from several sources for the upcoming Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Detroit Lions match, as well as forward betting odds for this club leading into the upcoming NFL season.

Betting Odds and Preview for the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3 of the 2022 NFL Preseason

Moneyline (-205)

The Steelers are at home this time and are coming off two consecutive victories in this preseason. Thus, they arrive as favorites.

If quarterback Kenny Pickett repeats his good performance against the Seahawks, the Steelers have what it takes to win. In that game, Pickett passed for 95 yards, connected on 13 of 15 carries and scored two touchdowns.

Spread (-4.5)

Like the Moneyline, a difference of a field goal and a little more is an interesting spread option. Although the Pittsburgh team has a slight edge, they should not be complacent in light of the Lions’ strong performance in their last win over the Colts.

Over/Under (39.5)

Although in the first game they had a promising offensive performance, scoring 32 points, the performance was not maintained in the second game, and they barely won by one point and scored half of what they did a week earlier. Meanwhile, the Lions have scored 23 and 27 points in their first two games. Excitement is expected on the scoreboard.

Over/Under wins in the season: Over 7.5 (+100) / Under 7.5 (-120)

If last season’s results are any indication, the Steelers are not among the teams expected to win the most games this season. In fact, they have a complex schedule from the start, given that they will debut against the Bengals, and will later face the Patriots, Browns, Jets, Bills, Buccaneers, Dolphins and Eagles.

The odds speak for themselves, and they are pessimistic about their performance not only entering into the first four games, but also following the bye week, when they face the Saints, Bengals, Colts, Falcons, Ravens, Panthers, and Raiders.

Reach postseason: Yes (+350) / No (-450)

Despite this good start to the preseason, the expectation of wins at crunch time seems to be rather low. For many, a third or fourth place finish would be cause for celebration in the Pittsburgh ranks, especially with such a schedule ahead.

AFC North Champions (+1000)

The Steelers share a division with none other than the finalists of the last Super Bowl (Cincinnati Bengals and Los Angeles Rams), in addition to the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns, two teams that are sure to be the lynchpins of this 103rd NFL season. As a result, the Steelers are far behind when it comes to becoming title candidates.

Steelers win Conference (+5000)

Looking ahead, the Steelers don’t have much of a chance of even making the postseason. With a division loaded with serious title contenders, they run at a disadvantage behind the Jaguars, Jets or Texans, among others.

Steelers win Super Bowl (+9000)

How tempting it is to bet on a team that no one else is considering, isn’t it? But, as previously stated, it will be extremely tough for them to get to the later stages, let alone win the Super Bowl. According to the bookmakers, only nine teams have a lower chance of winning the title than the Steelers.

Mitchell Trubisky wins MVP (+8000)

The feeling in the preview is that only if all the planets aligned could Mitch become the MVP this season.

On top of that, his track record is not good: after such a long time in Chicago, the quarterback didn’t perform well last season with the Buffalo Bills, which prompted him to quickly move again in search of a new destination. Maybe the third time’s the charm, and everything in Pittsburgh ends up working in their favor.
