According to BetOnline.ag, the Bengals at 6.5-point favorites over the Steelers at home. The Over/Under is 44.5. 

This could change with whoever walks away from the Steelers' quarterback battle as the starter, but chances are Pittsburgh is going to remain the underdog right through the game. Playing the defending AFC champs, it's hard to expect different.
