Preseason Week 3 NFL picks for Steelers vs. Lions
Before you tune in to Sunday’s Lions vs. Steelers game, you need to see the NFL picks from RJ White. White, a Fantasy and gambling editor for CBS Sports and SportsLine, went 445-378-24 on his ATS picks from 2017-21, which returned $2,542 to $100 players.
It’s no surprise, as White has cashed huge twice in the world’s most prestigious football handicapping competition, the Las Vegas SuperContest. White also cashed big on his NFL futures in 2021, including nailing Jonathan Taylor as the NFL rushing leader at 10-1. Anyone who has followed him is way up.
For Steelers vs. Lions, White is backing the Steelers (-5.5) to cover the spread. The Lions have already announced that starting quarterback Jared Goff will not play, leaving the offense in the hands of backups Tim Boyle and David Blough. Those two have combined for as many turnovers (three) as touchdowns, and they’ve taken all four of the sacks that Detroit has allowed through two preseason games.
Meanwhile, the Steelers plan on utilizing all of their quarterbacks, including both Mitchell Trubisky and Pickett, who are battling for the No. 1 job. Pickett has been everything Pittsburgh would have hoped for, as he’s been arguably the best quarterback in the preseason. Among QBs with at least 20 pass attempts, Pickett ranks second in passer rating (138.6) and passing touchdowns (three).
The statistics say that all three of Pittsburgh’s quarterbacks are better than any player Detroit will trot out at the position on Sunday, and that’s a big reason why White is behind the Steelers. Stream the game now here.
