NFL – Pittsburgh Steelers vs Denver Broncos

Posted on January 15, 2016January 15, 2016 | Posted by Sportsbettingmax.com

Monday 18 January, 5.40 am. Mile High Stadium 

Weather Partly 3 Degrees– Outdoor stadium

Game rating – Steelers 22 v Broncos 19

This match looks to be most affected by the injuries absorbed by the Steelers in their hard fought (18-16) away win against the Bengals last week.  Star QB Ben Roethlisberger has been battling all week with a throwing shoulder complaint and RB Antonio Brown who received for 119 yards in the Bengals win looks to be in severe doubt.  The Broncos had the best defence in the NFL this year and without their star players the Steelers look in trouble.

Prediction

These teams met in week 15 with the Steelers coming from way back to win (27-34) at     Heinz Field. But champion QB Peyton Manning didn’t play that game but he will be starting on Sunday, replacing Buck Osweller.  The Broncos are 14-3 SU at Mile High and look ideally placed for this match.  Broncos to win and cover.

Suggested Bets

Denver Broncos to win and cover the -7 spread.
