We go over the lines on FanDuel Sportsbook and pick out our favorite player prop bets to consider for the Steelers Week 18 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are preparing to host an exciting rematch against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday evening, with plenty of playoff implications on both sidelines.
In case there’s not enough on the line for you, here are a few of our favorite Bengals-Steelers player props to consider for Week 18.
Russell Wilson OVER 1.5 pass TD (+104)
Remember the last time Russell Wilson played the Cincinnati Bengals? You know, when he completed 76.3% of attempts for 414 passing yards, 3 TD and 1 INT for a 126.4 passer rating Yeah … that was magic. And it’s been magic for most opposing QBs to have faced Cincy’s defense this season, giving up 2+ touchdowns on 10 different occasions to nine different QBs on the year, including Wilson, Bo Nix, Mason Rudolph and Cooper Rush, for crying out loud. The Bengals rank fourth in passing touchdowns allowed (29) to opponents this year, and Wilson has managed multiple pass TDs in half of his starts this season. At plus odds, against this opponent, coming off a mini bye, this feels like a great spot to coup some value.
Jaylen Warren OVER 65.5 rush + receiving yards (-114)
The run game has undergone a bit of a revolution as of late, with RB Jaylen Warren taking over a featured role in the offense — both as a preferred receiving option and a runner. Warren has handled 16+ touches for 90 scrimmage yards in each of the past two games. He continues to be the more efficient option, averaging 5.3 yards per touch and has exceeded this projected total in five of eight games dating back to November.
T.J. Watt to record a sack (-122)
Watt has been on a bit of a dry spell when it comes to sack production, having uncharacteristically had two different runs of back-to-back games without a sack this year. He’ll look to break that streak in Week 18 against the Bengals, having just notched two sacks against Burrow back in Week 13 (5 QB hits). Burrow ranks third in the league all season in dropbacks under pressure per PFF and leads all QBs in pressured dropbacks dating back to Week 10, tied for the fifth-most sacks in that span.
Watt has played 14 games against the Bengals in his young career and managed at least one sack in all but four of them, including one game with a half-sack back in 2022. It’s a match made in heaven.
