After a few weeks of divisional action, Thursday Night Football is headed to Pittsburgh for the Tennessee Titans' trip to the AFC North-leading Steelers.
Both clubs sit first in their division, and, with their combined record of 13-5, this could be the best Thursday night matchup of the season.
Here's how to bet the kickoff to Week 11 action:
The wager: Tennessee Titans at Pittsburgh Steelers (-7)
The Titans come in having won four straight games, but that shouldn't fool bettors into thinking they're among the league's upper echelon. Tennessee has failed to cover the spread in each of the last three wins, barely squeezing past the Browns, Ravens, and Bengals. Despite a 6-3 record on the campaign, the Titans have a minus-8 point differential, and that will catch up to them Thursday.
Pittsburgh barely got past the Colts last weekend and has surprisingly struggled to score lately despite a multitude of weapons on offense. The defense has stepped up and taken over, leading the Steelers to four wins in their last five games. Look for Antonio Brown and the passing attack to get on track against an average Titans secondary, and Ben Roethlisberger to have one of his better games this season. Steelers 28, Titans 17
Thursday picks record: 7-2-1
