Monday Night Football Preview
Where were you on October 14, 1991? That was the last time the Steelers lost at home on Monday Night Football. They are 27-5 in Pittsburgh since MNF began in 1970, including 19 straight wins. Only four players on the Steelersā active roster were even alive in 1991 (QB Ben Roethlisberger, DE Cam Heyward, K Chris Boswell and CB Joe Haden) š¤Æ
Fast forward to tonight and we have the 4-3 Steelers taking on the 3-5 Bears. Pittsburgh has rattled off three straight wins to get themselves back in the AFC North hunt
Spread: Steelers -6.5
Moneyline: Bears +240 (bet $100, win $240), Steelers -300
Over/Under: 39
Trivia question: Who has the most receptions for the Steelers this season? (answer below)

Points? Doubt it
If you turn on this game expecting to see two high-powered offenses score a bunch of points, youāre in the wrong place. The Bears rank in the bottom-two with 15.4 PPG, while the Steelers arenāt much better at 18.9 PPG (7th-worst in NFL). Letās analyze the over/under for MNF š
Over 39 pts: -110
Under 39 pts: -110
Pittsburgh has only scored 20+ pts in three games this year, while Chicago has only done it four times. Despite the under being extremely low, both the Bears and Steelersā offenses have been so atrocious that theyāve hit the under quite a bit this season
The under is 6-1 in the previous seven outings for the Bears, including the past three road contests
The under is 5-2 in seven games overall for the Steelers
Points are at a premium in this game from an offensive standpoint, and I havenāt even mentioned the Steelersā defense. Theyāve allowed just 20.3 PPG (7th-best in NFL) and 345.7 YPG (11th-best in NFL), so I really like the under in Pittsburgh

Najee Harris Prop Bet
When the Steelersā offense is on the field, investing in Najee Harris against the Bears is the perfect call
Over 79.5: -115
Under 79.5: -115
Najee has run for over 79 yards in three straight games, plus his volume is elite with 23+ rushing attempts over that span. Heās been so effective for the Steelers, especially from Weeks 4-8, that he was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month for October (3rd Steelers player to ever receive that honor)
Najee will be going up against a Bears defense, without LB Khalil Mack (foot), that has given up the ninth-most rushing YPG this season (125.0). On top of that, with Ben Roethlisberger nursing a right shoulder injury, expect Pittsburghās offense to rely heavily on Najeeās legs šāāļø
