Monday Night Football

When the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Denver Broncos square off in Denver for Monday Night Football betting, it should be one of the best games of the week and could have a very interesting impact on the playoff seedings.

The Steelers and the Broncos are two of the better teams in the NFL this year and two of the very best in the AFC.

The Broncos stormed out of the gate to a perfect 6-0 record before being blown out last week by the Baltimore Ravens for the team’s first loss of the season.

Rookie head coach Josh McDaniels has this team playing at a very high level, something no one expected before the season began. This will be his second Monday Night Football betting game and so far he’s got a perfect record of 1-0 in the Monday Night Football odds.

The team is also a perfect 3-0 at home and the stadium can be one of the most difficult places to play in the NFL.

But the Steelers have one major advantage coming into tonight’s game and that is a full two weeks to game plan for this matchup. Add to this the fact that Baltimore gave them a blue print to slowing down the offense and beating up on the offense and the game planning advantage definitely goes to Pittsburgh.

Big Ben has emerged as one of the best QBs in the NFL this season and has transformed the Steelers offense into a passing led unit. But Denver can’t take its eye off the ground game either as Rashard Mendenhall has emerged as rushing threat.

Denver’s secondary is one of the best in the league so expect Pittsburgh to try and establish the running game early. If it’s successful the defense should blitz Kyle Otron’s brains out and the Steelers will win this Monday Night Football betting matchup.
