Steelers vs Bengals Anytime Touchdown Scorer Picks
Germie Bernard Anytime Touchdown (+285)
Germie Bernard has scored only one touchdown this season but has seen seven red-zone targets — he is starting to get WR2 treatment, recording at least five targets in each of his last four games.
Since Roman Wilson and Michael Pittman went down, Bernard has run a route on 83% of dropbacks over the last five games.
The Steelers are also coming off their bye, and TE Pat Freiermuth is potentially out with an illness.
I think Bernard could have a huge game after getting an extra week of practice with Aaron Rodgers, so let’s take him to score his second touchdown of the year.

Joe Burrow Anytime Touchdown (+600)
Joe Burrow has three touchdowns this season, including rushing scores in back-to-back games — the Bengals haven’t relied much on their ground game this year and rank last in rushing attempts per game.
When they get to the goal line, though, the Bengals have shown they’re willing to use Burrow and his size on a tush push, with two of his three touchdowns coming from the 1-yard line.
With receivers like Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, the Steelers defense also has to be careful not to draw a defensive pass interference penalty in the end zone.
Burrow has as many red-zone carries as Chase Brown through eight games, so I’ll take a chance on another quarterback sneak in this high-stakes divisional matchup.
