Steelers vs. Commanders Predictions For NFL Week 10, Sunday 11/10

If you hear someone saying they expected a 6-2 Pittsburgh team taking on a 7-2 Washington squad in Week 10, we’d love to meet them. These teams were expected to finish among the bottom of their respective divisions, but now, they’re fighting for potential #1 seeds in their respective conferences!

These are also two teams that made two of the biggest trade acquisitions at the deadline on Tuesday. The Steelers snagged WR Mike Williams from the New York Jets, while the Commanders grabbed CB Marshon Lattimore from the New Orleans Saints.

Interestingly enough, we should see these additions even matchup against one another in this game! It’s one that is expected to be rather tight, as the Steelers vs. Commanders odds have Washington as three-point favorites. We’ll be somewhat focusing on that market for the top pick from our Steelers vs. Commanders predictions with a bit of a twist.
 

 

 

Pittsburgh Steelers: Using The Bye Week

You’ve seen that both these teams have just two losses on the season, but with Pittsburgh having just had their bye week, they have one fewer win. Many fans have heard about Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid’s success after a bye week, but Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin cannot be overlooked.

Not only has he had a winning record in all 17 seasons with the Steelers, but he’s an impressive 13-4 after the bye. That includes winning each of the past seven seasons, and it’s not as if Pittsburgh is always favored in these games. Washington may be favored, but a win is by no means a foregone conclusion.
 

 

 

Washington Commanders: Not Getting Complacent

To help avoid overlooking their opponents, the Commanders need to focus on not getting complacent. They’ve already exceeded expectations by a mile, but they need to stay hungry. After all, the Philadelphia Eagles are right on their tails at 6-2 in the NFC East.

We don’t expect Washington to lose their hunger given that QB Jayden Daniels is a rookie and hasn’t been suffering in this franchise’s locker room for years. He’s been an absolute revelation, as not only is he a candidate for Offensive Rookie of the Year, but the overall MVP! He’s deserving of the recognition for sure.
 

 

 

Steelers vs. Commanders Odds, Spreads, Total & Betting Lines

Although the best bet from our Steelers vs. Commanders predictions is a slight variation of the standard lines, you can see those with the latest Steelers vs. Commanders odds at FanDuel Sportsbook below:

 

 

Steelers vs. Commanders Predictions: Washington -1.5 First Half Spread (-105 at FanDuel Sportsbook)

As mentioned, we’re focused on the point spread with our Steelers vs. Commanders predictions, but in the first half. We’ve shared the trend of success for Pittsburgh coming off a bye, so we’d rather just isolate the first two quarters and not sweat out a last-second upset.

More importantly, the trends are all but staggering to suggest that the Commanders should easily enter the halftime locker room with a lead of at least two points. First and foremost, both teams are excellent in the first half in terms of defense - Pittsburgh allows just 9.3 points allowed per game and Washington is even better at just 8.3 points allowed per game. 

So, if you want to consider the under in the first half for your Steelers vs. Commanders picks, that is certainly an approach, but the offensive discrepancy is why we’re focused on the point spread for Washington. While Pittsburgh scores just 8.3 points per game in the first half (eighth-worst), Washington is the second best with 16.1 first half points!

That massive discrepancy is why the best bet from our Steelers vs. Commanders predictions is Washington -1.5 in the first half (-105 at FanDuel Sportsbook).
 

 

 

Steelers vs. Commanders Injury Report & Latest News

As we’ve all seen since Week 1, the Pittsburgh QB drama was originally fueled by Russell Wilson’s calf injury. So, the latest injury news is important to have for the best Steelers vs. Commanders picks possible, and we have the NFL injury report at Fantasy Alarm for you.
