It will likely be ugly, but the Patriots should do enough to keep this inside the number. But in a game with a total lined at 30, there’s no way I can take the Steelers laying 6 here. This isn’t my favorite bet of the season it’s probably the opposite. We are also talking about a Steelers team that mustered just 7 points against the Cardinals at home last week after Trubisky took over. The Patriots couldn’t find the end zone last week, but Zappe did a fine job of pushing the ball down the field in rough conditions and at times put his offense in position to be successful. Despite that, Zappe still brings new energy to this offense and he’ll very much be trying to audition for the full-time gig. The Patriots are playing out the string of a completely miserable season, having already locked up the under on their regular season wins total. Trubisky replaced Kenny Pickett late in the first half against the Cardinals and could only lead the Steelers to 1 touchdown against an Arizona defense that ranks in the bottom third of the NFL.

Zappe finally got his first full-time start of the season last week against the Chargers, and the Patriots put up a whopping zero points. You have 2 backup quarterbacks on 2 already stagnant offenses in Bailey Zappe and Mitch Trubisky. It’s perhaps the grossest game of the season. Remember how we mentioned earlier in the season that in order to be successful in NFL betting – which is quite challenging – there are certain things you have to be willing to do? Certain dumpsters you have to be willing to dive into? That’s what we have to do this week on Thursday Night Football.
