Pittsburgh -3.5
51.5

Sunday Night Football in Week 13 should be a good one with the 8-3 Los Angeles Chargers squaring off against the 7-3-1 Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field. Game time on NBC for this key AFC tilt has been set for 8:20 p.m.

Los Angeles at Pittsburgh Overview

The Chargers bounced back from a tough one-point road loss to Denver as seven-point favorites in Week 11 with last Sunday’s 45-10 rout of Arizona as heavy 14-point favorites at home. They are just one game behind Kansas City for the lead in the AFC West. Los Angeles has been a solid bet on the road this season at 4-1 against the spread as part of an overall record of 6-5 against the closing number. The total has gone OVER in three of those five road games.

Philip Rivers was about as hot as it gets throwing the ball in last week's win with 25 completions in a row. He ended the day early in this lopsided win with 259 passing yards, and three touchdown throws after completing 28 of his 29 total attempts. The Chargers are averaging 273.2 passing yards a game while adding another 128.8 yards running the ball behind Melvin Gordon. It all adds up to an average of 27.9 points per game.

Pittsburgh was on a major roll heading into last Sunday's road game against Denver with a straight up six-game winning streak while going 5-0-1 ATS. Just like the Chargers, it got tripped up in Mile High as a three-point favorite with a 24-17 loss. The total stayed UNDER 47.5 points in that game, and it has stayed UNDER in four of its last six outings. The Steelers are 3-2 both SU and ATS at home this season.

Ben Roethlisberger is another veteran quarterback that has a heavy influence on his team’s fortunes on the field. He has thrown for 3,664 yards and 24 touchdowns this season against 12 interceptions while completing 66.1 percent of his 472 passing attempts. Antonio Brown remains his top target in the passing game, but JuJu Smith-Shuster leads the team in receptions (77) and receiving yards (1,055). Brown is still the money man on the scoreboard with 11 touchdown catches.

This should be a great matchup with two of the top quarterbacks in the league trying to top one another through the air. Each team also has the ability to run the ball which puts even more pressure on the defense to slow the other side down.

With so much offensive star power on the field at Heinz Stadium this Sunday night, I would have a strong lean towards the total going OVER, but my “best bet” pick is Los Angeles covering with the 3.5 points.

Steelers vs Chargers Vegas Odds & Game Preview

Steelers Vs Chargers Betting Odds

Los Angeles crushed Arizona 45-10 at home last weekend to improve to 8-3 on the season overall. The Chargers actually trailed 10-0 at the end of the first quarter before scoring 28 unanswered points before halftime. RB Melvin Gordon III had been listed as questionable prior to kickoff, but he ended up suiting up despite not practicing for much of the week. While he did manage to score two touchdowns, Gordon III was forced to leave in the second half and has already been ruled out for Week 13. However, QB Philip Rivers does have excellent chemistry with RB Austin Ekeler, who will likely see his usual pass-catching role expanded against the Steelers with Gordon inactive. Rivers has been fantastic this season, completing 69.5% of his passes for 3,119 yards and 26 touchdowns. He has also thrown two or more touchdown passes in 12 consecutive games. The receiving duo of Keenan Allen and Tyrell Williams have also been big contributors on offense, combining for 1,367 yards and nine touchdowns. Overall, Los Angeles is currently averaging 27.9 points per game (7th overall) on 402.0 yards of total offense.

Lines

The Chargers have been excellent defensively through their first eleven games, giving up an average of just 19.9 points per game (4th overall) on 334.8 yards of total offense. They have been especially strong against the pass, allowing only 227.3 yards per game through the air (7th overall).

Pittsburgh dropped to 7-3-1 on the season last weekend after a disappointing 24-17 loss on the road in Denver. The Steelers were just a couple of yards away from the end zone with two minutes left in the 4th quarter but couldn’t find a way to punch it in, as Ben Roethlisberger threw an interception on a critical 3rd and goal. It was certainly puzzling to see Pittsburgh abandon the run on the 2.5 yard line, as they had three chances to hand the ball off to RB James Conner. Conner has looked fantastic filling in for Le’Veon Bell, racking up 894 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns. Roethlisberger has also had a solid year, throwing for 3,664 yards and 24 touchdowns. He has really been clicking with both Antonio Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster as of late. as the pair have combined for 1,929 yards and 15 touchdowns in just 11 games. As a whole, the offense is currently averaging 28.7 points per game (6th overall) on 420.8 total yards.

The Steelers have been slightly above average on the other side of the ball so far this season, surrendering 22.6 points per game to opponents (12th overall) on 325.1 yards of total offense. However, they have been quite solid against the pass, giving up an average of only 223.3 yards per game through the air (6th overall).

Steelers Chargers Betting Lines

This is shaping up to be one of the most entertaining games on the schedule here in Week 13, as both of these teams have been enjoying impressive seasons so far. While this matchup could easily go either way, there are a couple of factors that have me leaning towards Pittsburgh in this particular spot. While Austin Ekeler is still a solid running back, there is no doubt that Los Angeles will greatly miss Melvin Gordon III on Sunday night. He has been one of the most dynamic offensive players in the entire NFL through the first 12 weeks of the season. The other thing that the Steelers have going for them is their unique ability to bounce back immediately following a loss – they are a perfect 6-0 ATS in their last six games after a defeat.

While all of those trends are certainly important to keep in mind, the following statistic really jumped off the page at me : Los Angeles is just 2-5 ATS in their last seven trips to Heinz Field and only 3-8 ATS over their last 11 meetings with Pittsburgh overall. I’m not going to pick against a Steelers team that will be hungry to avenge a bad loss last Sunday. I’ll lay the 3.5 points and take a stab with the home favorite, give me Pittsburgh to cover the spread.
