The visitors will have a commanding series lead going into Sunday’s NFL Picks Week 3 game, as they’ve won 5 in a row and hold a 48-30 edge that includes the postseason. The OVER/UNDER for this, Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Cincinnati Bengals NFL Picks Week 3 game has been officially set at a combined total of 37½ points scored.
For Pittsburgh, its performance last week left a lot to be desired on all sides of the ball: offense, defense and special teams. The Steelers’ ground game was a disaster last week despite the Bears missing one of their main components in Brian Urlacher, who’s out for the remainder of the season with wrist injury. It’s shameful that Pittsburgh was able to muster just 105 rushing yards all game long, as Willie Parker was a no-factor with his 14 carries for 47 yards. Also, Jeff Reid might want to upgrade his resume, as he missed two field goals for the Steelers.
For Cincinnati, Chad Ochoconco (9 receptions, 180 yards, 1 TD) and his “Lambeau leap” catapulted the Bengals to a huge upset win over quarterback Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers, 31-24 last NFL Picks Week. Bengals signalcaller Carson Palmer also contributed in the victory by completing 15 of his 23 passes for 185 yards, and 3 TDs (2 INTs). Cincy’s defense came up huge: especially against the run limiting Green Bay to 89 net rushing yards and on third down, stuffing them 54% of the time.
