Pittsburgh at New England

The Pittsburgh defense has been troublesome in its first two games. Usually a team strength, the Steelers' defense has allowed over 30 points in both games and nearly 400 total yards a game. Both their games have flown way over the total. The New England Patriots are 1-1 and have had success moving the ball. The Patriots are averaging 5.8 yards per play. Both these teams are going to try to exploit the secondary of their opponent. Pittsburgh is allowing opposing QBs to average nine yards per pass attempt, and New England is allowing 9.5. Those are very high numbers in a game that should feature a lot of scoring. Pittsburgh's next game is overseas and a big one vs. the Vikings. I think this game goes OVER the total.
