2. White picks off Hodges twice

Devlin Hodges has not been spectacular since taking over for Mason Rudolph but he’s been steady and, ultimately, good enough. In particular, one thing Hodges has done well is avoid turnovers. He has just two interceptions in five appearances and only one pick in his last three games. With that being said, he’s not had to try and test a player like Tre’Davious White.

White has not been entirely consistent in the 2019 season but, when he’s been at his top form, he’s looked like one of the best corners in the NFL. And with the depleted receiving options for the Steelers right now, the cornerback will bring Hodges and the Pittsburgh offense back down to Earth as he picks him off twice on Sunday night.

1. Bills win big to get to 10 wins

Everyone has been talking about how hot the Steelers have been but how can you not call that fool’s gold? Look at who this team has been playing. They beat a Rams team that was struggling, lost handily to the Browns in the brawl game, beat a one-win Bengals team by six points, got revenge versus dysfunctional Cleveland and then beat a bad Cardinals team by six points.

The Buffalo Bills are miles ahead of all of those teams. Pittsburgh, Hodges in particular, hasn’t been hit in the mouth like they will be on both sides of the ball on Sunday Night Football. Not only will the Bills get their 10th victory of the year but they’ll do so in dominant fashion as they win by at least two touchdowns on the road.
