Eagles vs. Steelers On TV: FOX
The Steelers are coming off of their bye week, and they are getting a lot of respect in this game. Many think that the Eagles just aren’t all that good, knowing that they have won their three games this year by a combined four points. Still, the truth of the matter is that it is Pittsburgh that is the suspect team. Yes, the squad is healthy now, and the defense should see some great improvement with both LB James Harrison and S Troy Polamalu in the fold. However, when push comes to shove, the offensive woes are only going to be fixed by with a new offensive line, not with RB Rashard Mendenhall coming back. The Eagles should at least keep this one close, though we’ll go with the Steelers to win this one by exactly a field goal.
Philadelphia Eagles @ Pittsburgh Steelers Pick: Philadelphia Eagles +3.5
Philadelphia Eagles @ Pittsburgh Steelers Score Prediction: Pittsburgh 24 – Philadelphia 21
