| Over 5.5 Sacks | -110 |
The fact that the Bengals have just 11 sacks might concern some of our readers when it comes to this prop. But we count on them having one or maybe two tonight, especially because the Steelers’ O-Line found some groove, tightening up Aaron Rodgers’ protection. Meanwhile, with 20 sacks, Pittsburgh is the second-best team in the league in this category.
Knowing that Flacco and his protectors need to create some chemistry and also that he isn’t a very mobile QB, we expect to see the Steelers reach the veteran quite a few times in this event.
| Aaron Rodgers 2+ passing TDs DK Metcalf anytime touchdown | +180 |
Aaron Rodgers played exceptionally well over the past two to three weeks. We saw some moves he did a decade ago, but what’s noticeable is that the 4-time NFL MVP now looks relaxed and comfortable, unlike in the opening few rounds. Rodgers posted 10 touchdown passes and only 3 picks, making him one of the best QBs this season.
DK Metcalf and Rogers have an excellent connection. The former Seahawks WR reached 356 receiving yards and 4 touchdown receptions. He became Rodgers’ favorite target, and their partnership on the field intensified in the last four weeks. Metcalf had one TD reception in each event during that span, and over the past two, he caught 221 passing yards.
