| The Broncos offense could not get anything going vs the Ravens and they face a similar defense this week. The Steelers are favored because they are running the ball better with Rashard Mendenhall averaging 4.5 ypc and Knowshon Moreno is averaging just 3.5 ypc. Despite this overall edge there is a 50 percent chance that Moreno can outperform Mendenhall. If he does Denver is the 57 percent favorite. Denver also needs Elvis Dumervil to sack Ben Roethlisberger. If Roethlisberger is sacked 4 or more times Denver is the 52 percent favorite, but if Roethlisberger is sacked under 4 times Pittsburgh is the 68 percent favorite. | ||||||||||||||||||||
