After a tough game against the 49ers this past Monday, the Steelers will get a little bit of a rest this weekend against the St. Louis Rams, who aren't nearly as good as of a football team. The only question left is who will be under center for the Pittsburgh Steelers. For some perspective on the odds for this game, we check out our partners at OddsShark.
The St Louis Rams are playing out the string and could get stomped hard by a team still fighting for the AFC North title.The Week 16 point spread between the Rams and Pittsburgh Steelers will reflect this reality when the number opens. Big Ben's ankle injury will keep the line off the board for the near term.The Steelers have a short week after losing to the 49ers on MNF. They face a Rams team that is 1-8 SU and ATS on the road lately. The Steelers are 9-1 SU and 7-3 ATS in their past 10 home games.The Rams are just 2-10-1 ATS in 13 trips as an underdog, while the Steelers are 13-1 SU past 14 games as NFL betting chalk.
