Premium Pick

Houston already has some action under its belt as the Hall of Fame Game was called in the third quarter. DeMeco Ryans was 2-1 SU/ATS in his rookie preseason, and all three games stayed UNDER. Davis Mills completing 10 of 13 passes against Chicago, notching 102 yards and a TD. Case Keenum went 7-for-9 for 78 yards and a TD, and Tim Boyle finished 2-for-5 for 17 yards. C.J. Stroud is unlikely to see action vs. the Steelers, so it'll be the same three QBs sharing the load. Mike Tomlin is 33-30-1 ATS in the preseason, and 37-26-1 UNDER. He's won eight consecutive preseason home games straight-up. The Steelers QB meetings are a full house and Justin Fields appears to be the team's starter for now as Russell Wilson has been hampered by a calf injury. Kyle Allen and John Rhys Plumlee are the backups, and Allen will probably get the bulk of the snaps in this game. Plumlee is a rookie from UCF. Pittsburgh is 6-0 UNDER its past six preseason games vs. AFC opponents, and Pittsburgh is undefeated the past two preseasons, going 6-0 SU/ATS. Five of those six wins were by a touchdown or more. Take the Steelers and the UNDER.
