Thursday Night Football trains its eye on the AFC North, as the Steelers and Bengals square off at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati. Kickoff is at 8:15 p.m. ET, and the game can be streamed on Prime Video.
Aaron Rodgers and Joe Flacco are just the second pair of QBs over 40 to face off in an NFL game — a clash that's being jokingly called the “Icy Hot Bowl." But these two Super Bowl winners probably deserve better a better joke than that.
Below, we'll drop some Aaron Rodgers suggestions that could make your PrizePicks Thursday a special one.
Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers Projection: 20.5 Pass Completions
Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers are riding high after a solid 23-9 win over the Browns, a game in which Rodgers completed 21-of-30 pass attempts in a strong performance.
On the other side of the field, the Bengals struggled offensively under QB Jake Browning — the initial fill-in for hobbled Joe Burrow — averaging just over 12 points per game across his three starts. However, Flacco showed promise in his first outing, leading the Bengals to 18 points despite having only a few days to prepare. With a full week of practice under his belt, the proven gunslinger should be even more comfortable in the offense, and he’ll likely be airing it out in a game could be pass-heavy on both sides.
The wobbly Bengals’ defense ranks 30th in points allowed at 30.5, 31st with 394.2 in total yards allowed, and 31st with 258.5 in passing yards allowed per game. Through the first six weeks of the NFL season, Cincinnati has allowed an average of 22.7 pass completions.
