Cincinnati has one last chance to salvage something from its disappointing season and that is to knock the Steelers out of the playoffs, which would occur if they lose this game no matter what Baltimore does. The Bengals are actually 8-7 ATS and are getting more than two touchdowns even while covering the last three weeks. Jeff Driskel threw two touchdown passes against Cleveland for the backdoor cover on Sunday and he finished 13-of-19 for 133 yards with no interceptions and Joe Mixon rushed 17 times for 68 yards. Pittsburgh is 3-6-1 ATS as a favorite this year and it hasn't won by more than seven points over its last six games. Also, the Steelers come off a grueling, heartbreaking loss at New Orleans on Sunday night. Steelers' running back James Conner sat out his third consecutive game with an ankle injury and he's questionable for this one. Cincy is 12-4 ATS its last 16 games versus AFC teams and 21-8 ATS over its last 29 December games and the Bengals have covered four of their last five road contests. The Steelers are 3-7 ATS over their last 10 December games. The Bengals are 19-9-2 UNDER their last 30 games after an ATS win and the Steelers have stayed UNDER 37 of their last 55 games against teams with losing records. This is too many points to give Cincinnati in what could be Marvin Lewis' last game as coach.  Play the Bengals and the UNDER.
