Bengals and Steelers Meet for Sunday NFL Week 12 Bets

Pittsburgh Steelers Vs. Cincinnati Bengals NFL Betting picks and game preview

At the onset of the season, the Steelers lost quarterback Ben Roethlisberger to injury. Since then it has been one continuous injury after another. Yet Pittsburgh has maintained NFL bets value and is in the playoff hunt. This week comes an opportune game at the Bengals. To illuminate, winless Cincinnati is one of the worst teams in the NFL. So, the Steelers may be missing key players, but are in a must-win game that they should control. Perhaps the only question is the betting value. While Pittsburgh has shown profitability, the Bengals have not.
