NFL Week 2 Predictions: 49ers vs. Steelers Free Pick & Betting Odds

Both in SU and in ATS betting, they are 10-0 in their last 10 regular season games played on the East Coast. “They don’t have to be here today”. SPREAD THE WORD:The Steelers had communication issues in their opener at New England that resulted in defensive issues that included blown coverages and unguarded receivers. His adjustment to the National Football League was incredible not only because he did it quickly, but rather because he did it well.

Butler took responsibility for those mistakes but also noted because of injuries, the Steelers had several players who hadn’t seen much action in the preseason. Unfortunately, utility player Reggie Bush will be inactive on Sunday due to the calf strain he sustained during the Vikings game, which is a loss the 49ers will definitely feel come Sunday. “They look good on film”.

Thus far no one’s been ruled out, though Shazier, Cortez Allen, and Boykin have either not practiced or been limited this week. [This] is the type of offense we look forward to.

One that plays in stark contrast to the way the Steelers go about their business.

I always reserve the right to pick differently on the mornings of games based on how things are going for them and their opponent up until then. “I’m sure the coaches will have us prepared”. Hyde overshadowed the return of Vikings running back Adrian Peterson, who called his team’s performance “embarrassing”. “There’s a belief and a faith there”, Tomsula said. Not that I want the Bills to go 2-0 but I’ll take them anyway in a high scoring, defense free match, 34 – 31. But that’s it, next play.

Linebacker Michael Wilhoite says the “Mangenius” moniker deservedly belongs again to defensive coordinator Eric Mangini.

“No, I’m anxious about them Stillurz”, he said, layering on an extra thick slice of Pittsburghese.

49ers offensive co-ordinator Geep Chryst earlier indicated Hayne would be the first-option back-up to Hyde. It’s in his accent, the one he’s been unable or unwilling to shake despite a nomadic career that stretches from the Steel City to the Carolinas to Europe to the Bay Area. Added Wilhoite on the nickname:”Obviously it shows”. Kevan Barlow had held that team honor with 154 yards in his first start, in December 2003 against Arizona. Hyde ran for 168 yards and two scores as the 49er offense looked very solid.

On defense is where Pittsburgh could get burned, especially with six players making their first appearances on the injury report. “Any time there’s a situation where a team lets something like that happen, they tend to address it. I can’t put those guys down”.

49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick flashed some of the offseason skills he learned from NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner.

The 49ers 230 rushing yards were a season-opening record for the franchise, eclipsing a 217-yard effort in 1985, also against the Vikings.

49ers loss is a lesson not a harbinger of doom
