Broncos offensive TD on 1st drive (+380)
Denver’s defense gave Nix and company the perfect opportunity to score a touchdown on the first drive last week. After inside linebacker Alex Singleton’s interception resulted in a 21-yard return to Seattle’s 20, the Broncos failed to capitalize on solid field position, as a three-and-out led to a field goal. Denver finished 1 for 4 in the red zone in Week 1. The results against Seattle don’t provide a ton of hope the Broncos can reach the end zone on their first drive on Sunday.
Bo Nix passing yards under 166.5
Until proven otherwise, this is a safe bet. Nix averaged 3.3 yards per attempt in his debut, and it’s expected the Broncos will utilize the short passing game once again on Sunday. Pittsburgh’s defense might give Nix a challenge, especially with questionable pass protection from Denver’s offensive line. All signs are pointing toward Nix throwing for less than 166 yards. Don’t think twice about this.
