Week 5: Jacksonville @ Pittsburgh (-12)

Difficult to see how Jacksonville will score given how they are the second worst passing the ball and the Steelers are the best at defending the pass. Should be a good test for Rothlesberger (however you spell his name) against a good pass defense. 12 points is a lot for only a slightly above average team who can’t protect their QB, but Jacksonville is not a good team. Pick: Steelers.
