Steelers at Eagles
(NFL) Steelers (PIT) vs. Eagles (PHI),
Point Spread: 6.00 | -105.00 Steelers (PIT) (Away)
Result: Loss
Don't just relay on the eye test re: the Eagles, who looked like gangbusters in a couple of recent road wins over the Rams and Ravens but continue to have problems vs. the spread at home. More specifically, Philly is just 1-4 vs. the line at the Linc this season and 1-7 against the points as host since last December. It's worth noting that Philly was looking great last season into December before enduring a collapse, and last week's narrow escape vs. Carolina rekindled some of those memories. The thought is that Jalen Hurts and the passing game are proving increasingly unreliable to get the ball downfield. As for the Steelers, they're in their preferred underdog role, as Mike Tomlin is 5-0 getting points this season and 14-3 as an underdog since mid 2022, and looking rejuvenated on offense with Russell Wilson at the controls.
