Steelers open as 2.5-point favorites over Raiders

With these two teams so similar you knew the line would be close and it is. The line opened at Tipico Sportsbook with the Steelers just 2.5-point home favorites.

The Raiders lead the all-time series 17-13 and have won the last two matchups. Saturday’s game will be a celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the greatest play in NFL history, the Immaculate Reception.
