This week the Pittsburgh Steelers return home to lick their wounds after the team’s worst loss under the tenure of head coach Mike Tomlin. Unfortunately, things don’t get much easier for the 1-4 Steelers as the 3-2 Tampa Bay Buccaneers come to town leading the NFC South.
According to Tipico Sportsbook, the struggling Steelers are 7.5-point home underdogs to the Bucs. Pittsburgh has eight starters injured heading into the week, has no answers as to how to score points and has paid a tremendous amount to a defense that cannot stop anyone.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Tampa has quarterback Tom Brady who is 9-3 lifetime against the Steelers. They are playing for something, holding onto a lead in their division and probably view the Steelers as an opponent on the ropes.
