Thursday betting preview: Historically low total for Pats-Steelers​

LV Review Journal Subscription

The New England Patriots and Pittsburgh Steelers are taking the NFL to new lows.

The Steelers are consensus 6-point home favorites against the Patriots on “Thursday Night Football” with a consensus total of 30, believed to be the lowest in recent NFL history.

Sportradar has tracked over-unders for the past 15 seasons, and that would be the lowest total in that span, beating the 32½ for a Saints-Browns game in Week 16 last season and a Browns-Steelers game in Week 14 of the 2009 season. Both those games finished under.

Station Casinos was down to 29½ overnight. Boyd Gaming and Circa Sports were at 30½.

It’s not hard to see why oddsmakers aren’t expecting many points. The Steelers (7-5, 7-5 against the spread, 2-10 over/under) rank 28th in the NFL in scoring offense with an average of 16.0 points per game.

The Patriots (2-10, 2-10 ATS, 3-9 over/under) are even worse, ranking last in the league at 12.3 ppg. New England has lost three straight games without giving up more than 10 points — 10-6 to Indianapolis, 10-7 to the New York Giants and 6-0 on Sunday to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Additionally, both teams will be starting backup quarterbacks. Mitch Trubisky will start for Pittsburgh in place of the injured Kenny Pickett, while Bailey Zappe is expected to start again for New England in place of the ineffective Mac Jones.

How is weather?

I went a different route and took the Pittsburgh team total under 17.5. I don't think they score more than 17 points here even in a win. The Pats are terrible but their defense is excellent and has held teams below this total in 3 straight games so I'm playing Pittsburgh's team total under 17.5 in this one.

I remember that Ravens Giants Super Bowl total was something like 29.5. (May be off a bit). I was shocked back then but Ravens had such a great D

Looked and that SB was 33. I remember teasing the total and ravens for a winning bet that year

Game had back to back kickoff returns for touchdowns, and a pick 6 and still didn’t go over by much

 

[accocaramon]

Not today... Over everything

I had the right idea but of course the Steelers go for 2 and get it to land on 18. Tough beat but all you can do is shrug it off and move on to the weekend where there are much better spots than this one.

You lost by 1pt the same way i did with that 2pt conversion

Had parlay of Pats +7.5 and under 37.5

Would you believe if I told you before the game:

One of the teams will score 15 straight points AND LOSE THE GAME...???

Crazy. Nuts. Unreal
