After a disheartening loss to the Eagles, the New York Giants are facing a tough Week 8. Their offensive struggles are evident, managing to score only 14.1 points per game. With a depleted passing and running game, and a team grappling with injuries, New York faces an uphill battle against Pittsburgh.
The Steelers, riding high on their imposing defense and potent rushing assault, have surged into a two-game winning streak. Their defence, ranking second in scoring defence, allows just 14.4 points per game, while Justin Fields has emerged as an excellent offensive leader. The Penguins are a formidable foe, especially for the Giants, due to their ability to force mistakes and manage the clock.
New York’s depleted roster won’t have a chance against Pittsburgh’s well-rounded offense. The Steelers will likely cover the spread.
Stake: 6.5 on Pittsburgh
