NFL: Saturday's play

Play: Baltimore +3 +105


Time: 8:15 p.m. ET


Reasoning: Pittsburgh will not be the same without Le'Veon Bell. The league's second-leading rusher (1,361 yards) will miss this one after he hyperextended his right knee last week. Overall Bell contributed 11 TDs and 2,215 scrimmage yards, nearly one third of his team's total. Instead the Steelers will try to get it done with Josh Harris, Dri Archer and Ben Tate. The Ravens, who have allowed just 15.7 ppg over their last three, will have Haloti Ngata back after a four-game suspension. Last week Baltimore held Cleveland to 259 yards and a 3-of-13 mark on third downs. Elvis Dumervil and Terrell Suggs have combined for 29 sacks, the most by a tandem in the NFL. On offense the Ravens set team records in 2014 for scoring (409 points) and average yards (365). Joe Flacco (3,986 passing yards) and Justin Forsett (1,266 rushing yards) put up career numbers and the ageless Steve Smith recorded 1,065 receiving yards.

 Record: 237-183-8 (56.4%)
Bankroll: +116.98%
