Pittsburgh Steelers vs Las Vegas Raiders Prediction & Picks - NFL
by Bill Christy in NFL Picks
=11.0ptThe 3-2 Pittsburgh Steelers are heading to Allegiant Stadium to take on the 2-3 Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. After as solid 3-0 start to the season, the Steelers find themselves staring at a potential losing streak if they lost this Sunday. A 27-24 loss to the Colts was followed by a 20-17 loss to the Cowboys last Sunday night. Najee Harris has been a shell of himself in those losses. He was averaging 70 yards per game in the 3 wins but has only picked up 61 yards over the last 2 games. Without a steady rushing attack, this Steelers offense is as mundane as it gets. For the Raiders, or more importantly HC Antonio Pierce, they need a win this Sunday. Pierce’s name has been swirling about as one of the coaches that is on the hot seat and likely to get fired if things do not turn around soon. Aiden O’Connell will get the start for the Raiders as he is taking over for an ineffective Garnder Minshew. Davante Adams is not likely to play, so O’Connell will need to make due with a subpar group of receivers against a tough Pittsburgh defense. The line will need to step up their game to give O’Connell time and keep his jersey form getting smashed into the ground by this vaunted Steeler front.

Our Pittsburgh Steelers vs Las Vegas Raiders Prediction
Aidan O’Connell is not much of an upgrade from Gardner Minshew and the Steelers defense should be able to dominate this game. The Raiders have no real running threat either which should make things even easier for the Steelers. However, we do worry about the offensive production from the Steelers in this one. They have gone over 20 points just once this season which does not bode well for any over plays here. We are comfortable playing the under in what should be a defensive dominating game.
Our prediction for Las Vegas Raiders vs Pittsburgh Steelers: UNDER 36.5, -110 at Draftkings.
