Before the San Francisco 49ers had even stepped on the field for their first regular season game, an early line was released for their Week 2 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Las Vegas SuperBook had the 49ers set as 6.5-point underdogs heading on the road to Pittsburgh. Since defeating the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night Football, the 49ers-Steelers line has come down a point. It now sits at Steelers -5.5, according to the various sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.com.
I am not surprised the 49ers are still a fairly sizable favorite, but it will be interesting to see what kind of money comes in on this game over the next few days.
