Monday Night Football

Monday Night Football betting odds for the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Washington Redskins opened at Washington -3. Some of the wise guy outfits have brought this line down to -1. Bookmaker.com had the line at -3 still heading into Monday afternoon.

Pittsburgh is 3-0 against Washington but only 1-2 Against The Spread. All three of those games were played in Pittsburgh during the years 1997, 2000 and 2004. Pittsburgh has been a dominating team throughout that period but comes into this matchup relatively even with the Redskins.

As good as Washington has played, they have not been blowing teams out at home. Pittsburgh has also won a series of games on the road, albeit against all losing teams.

The Steelers are 1-5 ATS vs. a team with a winning record and are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 Monday games. They are also 7-3 ATS in their last 10 games following a S.U. loss.

The Redskins are 22-8-1 ATS vs. a team with a winning record.

The Sagarin Ratings suggest Washington should be a -2 ½ home favorite and this indicates that the line here is relatively accurate.
