NFL experts setting up a trap game for the Steelers this week
The Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Giants face off Monday night and are coming into the game from completely different directions. The Steelers are sitting at 5-2 and coming off a blowout win over the New York Jets. Meanwhile the Giants sit at 2-5 and got blown out last week by the Philadelphia Eagles.
This is why NFL experts don't give New York any shot against the Steelers this week. And it's why this is the perfect example of a trap game the Steelers could lose.
According to NFL Pick Watch, an overwhelming 97 percent of experts are picking the Steelers this week. In their fan picks, it is even worse, with 99 percent of picks going toward the Steelers. NFL Pick Watch aggregates expert picks from all over the internet and puts them all in one place.
As confident as we are about this week, this feels like a game where Pittsburgh might be reading their own press and come in flat. If they do, the Giants have the talent to win this game. This is especially true considering the Steelers head into the bye week next week and might look past what they consider an inferior opponent.
