Pittsburgh Steelers vs Philadelphia Eagles NFL Picks Week 3: The Steelers are 2-0 coming into this game today. Last week they got a win on the road against their division rival Cleveland, 10-6. Pittsburgh has won eight in a row in Cleveland, 16 of 17 in the series and 23 of 26 in a rivalry. The oddsmakers at Betus.com currently have Philadelphia Eagles -3.5 favorites to Pittsburgh Steelers heading into this match up with the total at 44 points.
Pittsburgh is in a division sandwich situation. The Steelers are off a game at Cleveland, the team many expected to win the AFC North before the season, and host division foe Baltimore the following week.
QB Ben Roethlisberger has had him self a good two games going 25 of 33 for 323 yards, 3 TD's and no INT's. His QB rating is 136.3. The Steelers remain tough to run on. The Eagles, though, are strictly a pass-first club.
The Eagles ar 1-1 into this matchup today, and almost got a huge win on the road last week in Dallas. The Eagles were still up 37-31 after Westbrook's third score, early in the fourth quarter, but his fumble on the next series led to the seventh and final lead change.
"These were two great teams going at it," McNabb said. "There are a lot of positives we can take from this game. But that's not important right now. What we need to do is focus on the working on the negatives. That's going to make us a better team."
McNabb might be able to tiptoe out of the way of Dallas' lumbering D, but he pulls that on Sunday and he's going to be tasting turf. This is Philadelphia’s only non-conference game during the first 10 weeks. The Eagles also are off a Monday night game versus division rival Dallas.
I expect the Eagles to stuff the box and force the Steelers to try and pass. Pittsburgh has had the edge over Philly in recent games but this Eagles team is healthy and they have added some key players on their roster.
NFL Picks Week 3: This will be a big game for both teams, they are both teams that will make the playoffs. Two weeks ago Philadelphia hosted St. Louis and blew them out 38-3. Will they win two in a row at home to start the season? Over is 6-0-1 in Eagles last 7 games when playing on Sunday following a Monday night game. Over is 4-1 in Eagles last 5 games following a ATS win. I'm going to have a top play on this game today, so check out my NFL Picks Week 3.
