Second place in the AFC North will be on the line at M&T Bank Field on Sunday afternoon when the Pittsburgh Steelers (6-4, 3-7 ATS) visit the Baltimore Ravens (5-5, 6-4 ATS). Both teams suffered bad losses last week, as Baltimore is coming off of a 17-15 defeat at the hands of the perfect Indianapolis Colts, while the Steelers lost a painful 27-24 decision at Kansas City.
Two of the top offenses in the NFL get it on for a Monday Night Football betting battle between the New England Patriots (7-3, 5-4-1 ATS) and the New Orleans Saints (10-0, 7-3 ATS). This could reasonably be the last huge hurdle between the Saints and an undefeated regular season. The Patriots still look to be picking up the pieces from their miserable loss in Indianapolis two weeks ago in their quest to prove that they are the top team in the NFL.
