Last week, our same game parlay was far from hitting. I overestimated Randy Fichtner’s ability to run the dang ball and James Conner was almost nonexistent. Not to mention Eric Ebron and Josh Allen falling just short of their totals.
The good news is that today is a new day and we have a brand new game. The Pittsburgh Steelers will take on the Cincinnati Bengals for some Monday Night Football action.

4-leg Same Game Parlay provided by FanDuel Sportsbook. Odds are set at +3685 ($10 wins $368.47)
Diontae Johnson OVER 64.5 Receiving Yards (-112)
Johnson has not been reliable this season with his league-leading nine dropped passes. With that said, he has covered this number six times this season. Mike Tomlin and Ben Roethlisberger seemed happy with how Johnson responded after being benched last week and later returning to the game. He has 222 receiving yards in three career games against the Bengals. The Steelers won’t completely flip script and run the ball 30 times tonight. The door is wide open for Johnson to hit this over against a weak Bengals secondary.
Steelers Defense/Special Teams Anytime Touchdown Scorer (+410)
The Steelers are the NFL's leading scoring defense. They get Joe Haden back tonight and this is very possible given the fact that the Bengals are starting a third-string quarterback in Ryan Finley. I also am still waiting for Ray-Ray McCloud to bust out a punt return.
Eric Ebron OVER 37.5 Receiving Yards (-112)
Ebron, like Johnson, has had his fair share of drops. He was in our same game parlay last week and fell nine yards short. While has has not been consistent catching the ball, he has been consistent reaching this number for the most part in the last five games.
Benny Snell Jr. OVER 53.5 Rushing Yards (-110)
I can’t believe this number is this low. I mean, I can, but I won’t pass it up. The Steelers have to get the ground game going before the playoffs or it is going to be an early exit. I expect the Steelers to go up early in this one and hand the ball off to Snell. Don’t let us down Randy Fichtner!
