Steelers vs Bills Prediction & Pick
After what they've shown thus far, there isn't a reason to believe that the Steelers can upset the Bills here. Buffalo sits inside of the top 10 when it comes to scoring offense and defense, whereas Pittsburgh produces just 18.5 points per game, which is tied for eighth-worst in the NFL.
A lot of the Steelers' offensive issues can be attributed to Mitchell Trubisky under center. While a potential Kenny Pickett start could be an improvement, the rookie quarterback did record three interceptions in his NFL debut. In other words, it's tough to see either QB having success against a Bills defense that's amassed the second-most takeaways (nine) so far this season.
Expect the Bills to win this one decisively.
Final Score Prediction:'Bills: 30 | Steelers: 14

Steelers vs Bills Best Bet
Again, the Steelers haven't given people a reason to think that this should be a close game. Mike Tomlin's team has given up 24-plus points to the Jets and Cleveland Browns over the last two weeks – two teams that aren't close to being on the Bills' level.
A 14-point spread is certainly daunting, but if there's any team that can cover, it's the BIlls.
