Devlin Hodges Serviceable In Win Over Cleveland

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges finished 14 of 21 for 212 yards, a touchdown, and an interception in Sunday’s 20-13 win over the Cleveland Browns. Hodges found James Washington on a 30-yard touchdown pass in the second quarter, which at the time tied the game at 10. The undrafted rookie didn’t need to do anything […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks for Week 13 (12/1/19)

In Week 12, we came out even. Jacksonville got crushed by Tennessee, which I wasn't expecting in the slightest, but Seattle taking care of business against Philadelphia was a great part of the weekend. Then our special picks on Thanksgiving saw the Bears squeak out a win (they really are bad) and the Bills and […]

Chris Boswell Nails Three Field Goals Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell hit all three field goal attempts and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 16-10 win over Cincinnati. The 28-year-old has been near perfect all season, missing just one field goal. In Week 13 against the Browns, Boswell can be relied upon again for a steady source of fantasy points, as […]

The Steelers Defense Saves A Win Against Bengals

The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense held the Cincinnati Bengals to just 10 points and just 244 yards of offense in Sunday's 16-10 win. They didn't force any interceptions, but Bud Dupree and Minkah Fitzpatrick recovered fumbles, while Dupree also added one of the team's four sacks. This was about how the defense was expected to perform, […]

Vance McDonald Kept Quiet By Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald caught his only target for a single yard in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Bengals. McDonald was a total non-factor in the offense, especially with the team adopting a run-heavy gameplan. While many drafted him expecting a TE1 return, the 29-year-old hasn't totaled more than 40 yards once all […]

Diontae Johnson Catches Three Passes

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson hauled in three of six targets for just 29 yards in Sunday's win over the Bengals. His status was up in the air heading into Week 12 after taking a blow to the head in last week's loss, but he was able to suit up and was on the […]

James Washington Scores Team's Only Touchdown

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington caught three of seven targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Bengals. Washington's 79-yard touchdown was the team's only touchdown in Week 12, and it was an impressive catch-and-run by the second-year receiver. If JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) is forced to miss next week's […]

Benny Snell Jr. Rushes For 98 Yards

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. took 21 carries for 98 yards and he also caught one pass for five yards in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The team gave the rookie the workhorse role with James Conner (shoulder) out, which left Jaylen Samuels for scraps in Week 12. While he still […]

Jaylen Samuels Kept Quiet By Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels received just two carries for six yards, while also catching three passes for 26 yards in Sunday's win over Cincinnati. As the Steelers took on a more run-first approach, the scat-back ceded the majority of the work to Benny Snell Jr. and Kerrith Whyte. This was one of Samuels' […]

Devlin Hodges Performs Admirably As Backup

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin Hodges completed 5 of 11 passes for 118 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-10 win over the Bengals. The rookie replaced Mason Rudolph in the third after Rudolph went just 8-for-16 for 85 yards and an interception. Hodges made an immediate impact, finding James Washington for a 79-yard catch-and-run. It […]

Pittsburgh Steelers Defense The Top Week 12 Option

The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense gets a juicy matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. Over the past three games, the unit hasn't allowed more than 330 yards of offense, while also forcing 11 turnovers. TJ Watt and Minkah Fitzpatrick have been the unsung heroes of this defense, and they get to pick on rookie Ryan […]

Vance McDonald Has TE1 Upside Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald has a great matchup in Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. With James Conner (shoulder) and JuJu Smith-Schuster listed as out for the game, McDonald is the most experienced pass catcher remaining on offense. He's been targeted seven times in each of the last three games, and while he […]

Diontae Johnson Slated To Play Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (concussion) did not carry an injury designation after Friday's practice and will likely be cleared to play against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12. Johnson took a helmet-to-helmet hit in last week's loss and was forced from the game with blood coming out of his ear. Barring not passing […]

James Washington In Line To Be Top Target

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington has a chance to be his team's top option in Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Since JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) will not play, the second-year pass catcher will be in line for extra work. Over his last three games, he's caught 13 of 16 targets for 208 yards […]

Jaylen Samuels An RB3 Against Bengals

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels can be considered an RB3 in PPR formats for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. James Conner (shoulder) is officially not playing, so Samuels will likely share time with Trey Edmunds and rookie Benny Snell Jr. When Conner has missed time this year, Samuels has gotten plenty of touches […]

James Conner, JuJu Smith-Schuster Will Not Play

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) won't be on the field for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Conner had five carries for 10 yards in Week 11 before exiting after re-aggravating his shoulder injury. Meanwhile, Smith-Schuster took a hit to the head, on a pass over […]

Mason Rudolph Not An Option Despite Prime Matchup

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will be without his two top weapons in Sunday's matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Both James Conner (shoulder) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) will be out in Week 12, leaving Rudolph with an inexperienced bunch around him. After tossing four interceptions against the Browns a week ago, Rudolph has taken […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks For Week 12 (11/24/19)

Week 11 was a great one, falling just short of perfection, maybe this is the week the Bears will get their stuff together. As each week passes, we can begin to hone in on the right situations to target. I for one cannot believe we can smell the playoffs, but that just makes betting on […]

Top College Football Betting Expert Picks For Week 13 (11/23/19)

Last week was a tough one, as Louisiana Tech announced their quarterback was suspended the day of the game. Naturally, the over pick didn't hit, but if he was there, it was a likely winner. Georgia took care of business, while Arizona didn't even break double digits. You'll have days like this and we just […]

Top NFL Betting Expert Picks For Week 11 (11/17/19)

Not a great week in the books last week, and it's been a struggle overall. You can fade what I pick here as I'm on a nice cold streak over the past few weeks. Let's hope for better outcomes as the season begins to close out. Week 10 Picks: 1-3 (25%) 2019-20 Picks: 18-21 (46%) […]

James Conner, JuJu Smith-Schuster Exit Game With Injuries

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) were forced to leave Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Browns. Conner, who missed the last two games with the shoulder injury, aggravated it early in the game, while Smith-Schuster got sandwiched on a tackle in between multiple Browns defenders in the […]

Top College Football Betting Expert Picks For Week 12 (11/16/19)

Perfection was what we had here in Week 11 and man what a wonderful weekend of college football it was. LSU is building something special and them outright beating Alabama made my heart happy. As we wind down near the end of the regular season, these games all have some sort of stipulation tied to […]

Steelers Defense In Prime Spot Against Browns

The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense has been on an absolute tear of late and are in a perfect spot to continue that strong play against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday night. The unit has recorded at least three takeaways in each of their last five games, including four a week ago against the Rams. However, on […]

Vance McDonald Has Some Upside In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald has a solid matchup against the Cleveland Browns for Thursday Night Football in Week 11. After totaling just 11 yards on three receptions a week ago, McDonald has now been targeted 18 times over his last three games. The Browns have allowed five touchdowns to tight ends this season, […]

Diontae Johnson A Desperation Flex Option In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has put together a solid rookie campaign with 30 receptions, over 360 yards, and three touchdowns. In Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Browns, Johnson will work to stay in the sights of quarterback Mason Rudolph. However, Rudolph has been favoring shorter routes recently, which puts Johnson at a […]

James Washington Looks To Continue Strong Play

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington is coming off the best consecutive performances of his young career. He's hauled in 10 of 11 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown in the last two games, and he seems to be redeveloping a connection with his college quarterback Mason Rudolph. He'll face off against the Cleveland […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Is Touchdown Dependent In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has just 12 receptions for 170 yards and one touchdown in his last four games. With a Thursday Night football matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11, Smith-Schuster shouldn't be considered the reliable option many drafted him as. Quarterback Mason Rudolph has been favoring shorter to intermediate routes, […]

Jaylen Samuels Not An Option Against Browns

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels steps away from the lead-back role with the expected return of James Conner (shoulder) in Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns. Over the last two games, Samuels turned 38 touches into just 123 yards and no touchdowns, so it's clear he's not suited for four-down work in this offense. […]

James Conner A Full Practice Participant

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, all but confirming he's good to go for Thursday night's road game against the Cleveland Browns. After missing the last two contests, Conner has been missed on offense, as the Steelers have combined for just 132 rushing yards in that span. […]
