• Prediction: Pittsburgh 21 – Tennessee 17

Pick via FOX Sports Betting Analyst Sam Panayotovich

All I want to do is bet against Will Levis.

The rookie quarterback from Kentucky dazzled in his NFL debut with four touchdown passes against Atlanta. It was as impressive a first start as I’ve seen in a long time. And yet I’m still ready to fade the kid.

I don’t exactly love the idea of laying points with Pittsburgh and banged up quarterback Kenny Pickett. The Steelers’ offense is extremely hit or miss and this could easily be a three-point win for either team.

I would rather bet Pittsburgh’s vaunted defense to bait Levis into a bad decision. More specifically, I need an interception. It’s a little pricey, but I’m content wagering on the Steelers to get their eighth pick of the season.

It’ll only take one mistake from the rookie.   

PICK: Will Levis throws INT (-150)

Did Will Levis prove he’s the REAL DEAL for the Titans after HISTORIC debut?
