NFLX Betting – Steelers over Eagles in Week 2 Preseason Action

Written by North Shore Sports, INC

The Pittsburgh Steelers host the Philadelphia Eagles Thursday in a NFLX preseason match-up. Look for plenty of hard hitting despite limited action by the starters, and Bookmaker Sportsbook offers all the preseason lines and totals for serious NFL gamblers.

NFL Betting Online:

The Steelers are a 3-point favorite over the Eagles despite a poor opening week showing. The total is set at 34 points and this NFLX betting contest will be one of the biggest bet games of the preseason. See if the Steelers can bounce back at Heinz Field Thursday, August 18th at 8:00 ET and you can watch and win on FOX TV.

The Steelers generated just 12 first downs and 186 yards total offense in their opening NFLX betting game in a 16-7 loss at Washington. Coach Mike Tomlin played the starters very sparingly, but he was still disappointed in the team’s energy and execution. Expect a more spirited effort against state-rival Philadelphia, who comes off a 13-7 victory over Baltimore in opening week preseason action.

The Steelers dominating defense returns every starter from last year and coordinator Dick LeBeau can count on many of those regulars to play up to half the game Thursday against the Eagles. That leaves other hungry backups ready to improve on their opening week performance.

The concern for Pittsburgh as they continue through preseason is the offensive line, which returns just one starter in center Maurkice Pouncey. The rest of the line is a bit in flux and trying to learn their way as a cohesive unit. Ben Roethlisberger will play a little more at QB this contest, and expect Byron Leftwich to see plenty of playing time again as the #2 quarterback. Dennis Dixon had a very poor game as the #3 QB last week, and he too should perform better with his job on the line and rumors of him being moved to another team. Motivation should be on the Steelers side in this NFLX betting odds contest despite it being a relatively meaningless preseason game.

Philadelphia was fairly impressive in their opening 13-6 win over Baltimore, but the Eagles did allow over 100 yards rushing and 5.4 YPR. Michael Vick will not play past the first quarter, giving way to Vince Young and #3 QB Mike Kafka. The Eagles made many aggressive moves in the free agent signing period and more back-ups will see action and additional playing time this week against Pittsburgh.

The kicking game has to be a concern for the Eagles as they transition to both a new kicker and punter. Rookie kicker Alex Henery had a very poor day in practice this past Saturday and kicking at Heinz Field is one of the toughest venues in the NFL. With the Steelers defense performing better and the Pittsburgh players not wanting to hear about two poor efforts to start the preseason, look for the Steelers to come out strong in this contest and carry that through to a victory over the Eagles.

NFLX Betting Picks: Take the Steelers over the Eagles in Week 2 preseason action.
