Big Ben, Unyielding Steelers Host Manning, Inconsistent Colts

The BetUS Sportsbook on Sunday but didn’t look particularly good in doing so.

The Pittsburgh Steelers got back in the win column by picking up a huge road win before a national television audience on Monday night.

Now, both AFC teams will be trying to pick up a win for BetUS online NFL sports betting enthusiasts everywhere on Sunday when they battle at Heinz Field.

The Colts beat the NFL bettors as 6.5-point home favorites.

The Steelers recorded an emphatic 23-6 win over the Washington Redskins to cover the spread as 1-point road underdogs. Backup quarterback Byron Leftwich completed 7 of 10 passes for one touchdown and running back Willie Parker ran for 70 yards on 21 carries with one touchdown.

Pittsburgh’s powerful defense shut Washington out for the game’s final three quarters after giving up two first quarter field goals.

Here is a look at the key trends for each team, followed by my in-depth analysis and NFL Free Picks.

Indianapolis is 11-3 SU in its last 14 games on the road

The total has gone OVER in 5 of Indianapolis's last 7 games on the road

Indianapolis is 17-8 SU in its last 25 games

The total has gone OVER in 4 of Indianapolis's last 6 games

Pittsburgh is 5-0 SU in its last 5 games when playing at home against Indianapolis

Pittsburgh is 10-1 SU in its last 11 games when playing Indianapolis

Pittsburgh is 4-1 SU in its last 5 games

The total has gone OVER in 4 of Pittsburgh's last 5 games at home

Analysis: I know the Colts need a win in the worst way this week, but I say they don’t get it! Pittsburgh is playing solid football on both sides of the ball at the moment and should be good enough to win this game even if Leftwich starts at quarterback in place of injured starter Ben Roethlisberger.
