Cincinnati Bengals at Pittsburgh Steelers Predictions:

ESPN: Bengals have a 58% chance to win

According to the ESPN Matchup Predictor, the Cincinnati Bengals have a 58.3% chance to beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 16.

CBS Sports: Steelers 21, Bengals 17

Staff writes: "Pittsburgh is turning the keys to the offense to Mason Rudolph after the Mitch Trubisky experience found Mike Tomlin's team 0-2 in his starts and falling out of the playoff picture. I can see Rudolph (7-3 ATS in his career as a starter) giving this Steelers offense a bit of a boost, especially against a Bengals secondary that is giving up 7.5 yards per pass attempt (31st in the NFL). Meanwhile, Cincinnati got banged up in their come-from-behind victory against the Vikings last week with star defensive tackle D.J. Reader going down for the year, and wideout Ja'Marr Chase expected to miss time due to a shoulder injury. The Bengals have also struggled mightily in divisional games this year as they are 0-4 SU and ATS against the AFC North. On the other hand, Pittsburgh is 5-1 SU and ATS against the division in its last six meetings, which includes a 3-0 SU and ATS record at home."
