The Pittsburgh Steelers are in the midst of a two-game skid. They will need to regroup as they head out west to visit the struggling Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders are always seemingly a tough matchup for the Steelers and will be starting a new quarterback Sunday. DraftKings Sportsbook has plenty of bets to place this weekend. Here are a few favorites we are looking out for.

George Pickens OVER 3.5 receptions -165

Talk about a week for George Pickens. He has been under the spotlight–and not for good reason. Where do you start? Well you could start on the film showing an unenthusiastic route running show. Then you could see the NFL Investigating his eye paint. Then after the last play of the game, he is seen yanking a Cowboys player down–almost leading to a brawl if not for quick acting officiating. Throughout the week, national and local media have made it a point to discuss his on-fields issues. Which makes him a prime candidate for getting the ball early and maybe often. You can bet he will get at least 4 receptions.

Najee Harris AT LEAST 50 yards rushing -290

Once again, it doesn’t look like the full running back corps will be healthy. Though Jaylen Warren appears to be making his way back, Mike Tomlin listed him as doubtful on Tuesday. This makes him a prime candidate to, again, get a bulk of the carries. He has eclipsed this mark in his two previous matchups against the Raiders. Expect this to also be a factor as the Raiders have lost Christian Wilkins indefinitely.

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Najee Harris

Justin Fields ANYTIME TD SCORER +215

By air or by ground, Justin Fields has made some plays for the Steelers offense. Though the offense is not where fans want it to be, Fields seems to be progressing each week. I would expect this to be a game where he uses his legs to score. The Raiders defensive line is beat up and will need to take advantage of this as they are allowing 131+ yards per game.

GAME PREDICTION: Steelers (-3) COVER -112, both teams hit the UNDER 36.5 points  -108

It will likely be another low scoring contest where the defense answers the bell after some questionable performances. The implied score is 20-16 if the Steelers cover. I think that’s close, but I think it will be a little lower. Steeles cover the spread but hit the under total: 19-7.
