Date/Time: Mon, Nov 12th / 08:11:00 PM ET, Heinz Field, Pittsburgh, PAQuick sports fact. The Pittsburgh Steelers haven’t lost a Monday Night Football home game in more than 20 years. Yes, that’s years. Here’s another quick NFL fact you should pay attention to. The Kansas City Chiefs suck.
The 1-7 Chiefs are unprecedentedly ugly this season. They’re the first team since 1929 to not lead at one point or another during regulation play after seven games.
Last week, the Chargers’ Philip Rivers threw just as many TD passes as he did incompletions, ultimately leading the Chargers to a 31-13 victory over the Chiefs, and forcing Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel to remove himself as the team’s defensive coordinator.
Matt Cassel will start tonight as QB against the Steelers, but it should be noted that he’s thrown 11 interceptions so far this NFL season. And he’s added eight fumbles and lost seven—not exactly MVP material to say the least. Sadly, the Chiefs do lead the league in one thing, though. Turnovers. They’ve got 29 of them. Ouch.
In gold and black, Ben Roethlisberger continues to look solid, and the Steelers defense continues to get healthy. At the start of the NFL season, Pittsburgh had everyone a little worried after kicking things off with a 1-2 record. But with a 5-3 record right now, and sitting in second in the AFC North, the Steelers are now looking like solid playoff contenders.
The Chiefs will not only face a defensive line that ranks in the top 5 against the run, and ranks the best against the pass in the entire league, they will also have the stats against them. The Steelers are 18-9 in their all-time series matchups against Kansas City, which includes a 13-9 win at Arrowhead Stadium last season.
Game Odds:
Kansas City Chiefs: +13-115, ML +450
Pittsburgh Steelers: -13-105, ML -600
Game Total: 40.5, o/u: -110
