Steelers-Ravens Betting Preview; Get $150 DraftKings Promo

The Pittsburgh Steelers could be playing a very important game when they visit the Baltimore Ravens at 8:20 p.m. at M&T Bank Stadium. Or they could not.

Before we get to the Steelers bets, there are two DraftKings offers:

Easy money — Bet $5, and if either QB throws for one yard, you win $150 in free bets.

The Steelers (7-8) need to beat the Ravens (10-5) and the Cleveland Browns (6-9) in the regular season finale on Jan. 8 at Acrisure Stadium to have any hope of making the playoffs. However, if the Miami Dolphins win on the road against the New England Patriots on Sunday afternoon, the Steelers will be eliminated from postseason contention before they take the field in Baltimore.

The Ravens have clinched a playoff berth and are one game behind the first-place Cincinnati Bengals (11-4) in the AFC North. The Ravens must beat the Steelers to still have a chance of winning the division title.

Here are the Steelers odds and lines vs. Ravens at DraftKings:

Spread: Steelers +2.5 (-110), Ravens -2.5 (-110)

Moneyline: Steelers +120, Ravens -140

Over/Under: 35 O (-115), U (-105)

Pittsburgh Steelers Betting Preview

The Steelers have clawed their way back into the playoff picture by winning five of seven games since a 2-6 start. They have won back-to-back games including rallying in the last minute to beat the Las Vegas Raiders 13-10 on Christmas Eve at home.

However, one of the Steelers’ two losses in the last seven games came to the Ravens 16-14 on Dec. 11 at Acrisure Stadium.

Steelers starting quarterback Kenny Pickett was knocked out of the game with a concussion. Mitch Trubisky came on in relief of the rookie and threw three interceptions, all in Ravens’ territory.

Pickett returned to action last week and completed 26 of 39 passes for 244 yards, including throwing the winning 14-yard touchdown pass to rookie wide receiver George Pickens with 46 seconds left. That completed a 10-play, 76-yard drive.

The Ravens have allowed 14 points or fewer in six of their last seven games since trading for Chicago Bears inside linebacker Roquan Smith. Smith and Patrick Queen have formed one of the best insider backer tandems in the NFL.

The Ravens will be without quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) for the fourth straight week. Tyler Huntley will again make the start at quarterback and the Ravens are 2-1 since he moved into the lineup.

Huntley played against the Steelers three weeks ago. However, he was knocked out of the game with concussion symptoms, and Anthony Brown, an undrafted rookie, finished the game.

The Ravens adapted, though, by rushing for 215 yards.

The Steelers have been much better against the run in their last two games. They held the Raiders and NFL leading rusher Josh Jacobs to 58 yards after limiting the Carolina Panthers’ potent running game to 21 yards the week before.

That could make the going tougher this time for Ravens running backs J.K. Dobbins and Gus Edwards.

The Steelers also need a win to assure coach Mike Tomlin does not endure the first losing season of his 16-year tenure. The Steelers haven’t finished below .500 since 2003 when they went 6-10 before going 16-2 the next season.

Pittsburgh Steelers Betting Prediction

The Steelers had a magical win on Christmas Eve, pulling out a victory on the night they retired the late Franco Harris’ No. 32. However, the Steelers’ luck seems due to run out and a Sunday night in Baltimore is a likely setting for that to happen.

The Ravens will win a tight one, thanks to the leg of kicker Justin Tucker.

Ravens 19, Steelers 17
