00:00Pittsburgh and Seattle, you know, take a look at this game, Darnold versus Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers,

00:03a very good week, number one, in a conquering hero role, going back to New York and getting

00:08a victory. Sam Darnold had a win on the tips of his fingers, but let it slip away because

00:13one of his offensive linemen ran into him and he dropped the football and the San Francisco 49ers

00:18won. This game's in Pittsburgh, roughly favored by two and a half to three points, depending on

00:22where you're shopping, and a lower total, Joe, 39 and a half to 40 and a half, once again,

00:27depending where you're shopping at this week. Rodgers comes home to the Steelers, a conquering

00:31hero there as well. I actually like the Steelers again this week. I do. Yeah, this number opened

00:36up at three, so we're already starting to see, right, under the key number now at two and a half.

00:43And listen, Seattle, you know, we covered that game on In Game Live on Sunday here on the Sports

00:48Grid Network, and watching that game, I said, wow, this defense of Seattle is no joke. But the

00:55offense, don't forget, they purposely, McDonald purposely went out and got Sam Darnold, didn't

01:01want Geno Smith, and he, you know, he got a new offensive coordinator. Why? Because he thought they

01:07threw the ball way too much a year ago with Geno Smith. So the emphasis was going to be defense and

01:13running the ball. Well, that's great, except you only ran for about 3.2 yards a carry, and oh yeah,

01:18Sam Darnold, you had him only throw for 150 yards, and you lost at home to a very winnable

01:25game against the 49ers. So to me, something has got to give there. You can't be a running

01:31football team and carry the ball for just 3.2 yards against anybody. And the Pittsburgh Steelers

01:38are not going to give up what they gave up on the ground to the Jets here. They will make

01:41the adjustments. I don't know how much the adjustments, but I'll tell you this, that's a good

01:46defense of Seattle. I think Aaron Rodgers keeps getting hit like he did against the Jets.

01:51I wouldn't be looking at an over in this game.
