While I don’t imagine it’s unprecedented, the fact of the matter is that the betting line against the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday is rather substantial. The spread is sitting at -10 for Buffalo right now, having stuck at -9.5 initially, which means the flow of the betting indicates the Bills are expected to win by a touchdown and a field goal.
There’s nothing greatly shocking in that, really, when you consider that the Steelers’ average point differential in spite of a 10-7 record was minus-1.8 points while the Bills’ differential was plus-8.2. Add that up and you get 10 points.
