With Burrow sidelined, the Bengals will rely on Browning to lead them to victory against the fearsome Steelers' defense. While the former University of Washington signal-caller led Cincy to a garbage time tuddy and a field goal before the half last week, his other four drives were fruitless. Pittsburgh should feast in Burrow's absence, bringing constant pressure (28 sacks) that will throw Browning out of rhythm.

I expect the Steelers' offense to look recharged following Canada's dismissal. Bettors should expect Pittsburgh to take full advantage of the talents of RB Jaylen Warren (nine carries for 129 yards and a TD last game). The ground game is getting in gear, ranking sixth in the NFL in rush EPA, and for all the flak, Pickett has at least taken care of the football recently (one turnover in the last six games). Cincinnati is 28th in third-down stop rate, 27th in passing yards allowed, and 31st in rushing yards allowed.
