The Pittsburgh Steelers are among the teams that have yet to lose a preseason game. In Week 1 of the preseason, the Pittsburgh franchise defeated the Seattle Seahawks by a score of 32-25. In their most recent game they won again, but this time the victory was closer, with a score of 15-16 against the Jacksonville Jaguars in a game that was decided in the last quarter.
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has managed to move his pieces intelligently and that has allowed for good outcomes, although there are still things to improve, especially on offense.
Betting on the Detroit Lions
- Record: 1-1
- Spread: +4.5
- Moneyline: +165
- Over/Under: 38.5
The Detroit Lions started their preseason road trip with a 23-27 loss to the Atlanta Falcons in an exciting game in which both teams scored in each quarter. In their Week 2 preseason game, they defeated the Indianapolis Colts by a score of 26-27. Despite the victory, that game raised many questions, so it is expected that they have addressed those concerns ahead of this game.
Head coach Dan Campbell still has time to prepare his team with just a few days left before the start of the regular season, and this matchup against the Steelers will be an interesting test.
JefeBet Prediction
The Steelers will surely come into this game with great confidence and knowing that they will be playing at home, so they are the favorites to win.
Win for the Pittsburgh Steelers.
