Here are some key betting trends for the NFL preseason games on August 17, 2024: Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Buffalo Bills: The Steelers have been strong in the preseason under coach Mike Tomlin, boasting a 41- 21 straight-up (SU) record. Pittsburgh is favored by 5.5 points on my power line, and with Russell Wilson expected to play several series, the Steelers are anticipated to cover this spread against a Bills team likely to rest key players . Minnesota Vikings vs. Cleveland Browns: The Vikings have faced significant injury issues, making
the Browns a strong pick as they should be -4.5 on my power line. The Browns' depth and Minnesota's struggles, particularly with recent injuries to key players, suggest that Cleveland is well- positioned to cover the spread . Atlanta Falcons vs. Baltimore Ravens: The game is expected to
be tight, with the Ravens slightly favored at -1.0. However, the Falcons could be a good bet to score over 17.5 points, especially with Michael Penix Jr. potentially seeing significant playing time. The over/under is set at 35.5 points, and given the potential for both teams to score, the over might be worth considering . These trends suggest favoring teams with deeper rosters or those taking the preseason more seriously, such as the Steelers and Browns. Betting on specific point totals, like the Falcons over 17.5, could also be a strategic play.
