Your Depot After Dark for Nov. 16.
PIERCE AND JOHNSON BET ON STEELERS-RAVENS
Previous NBA gamer Paul Pierce and previous NFL receiver Keyshawn Johnson put a $1,000 bet on the Steelers-Ravens Week 11 match. The 2 are both panelists on FS1’s Speak, and Pierce has faith that the Steelers can extend their AFC North lead, while Johnson is riding with Lamar Jackson and the Ravens.
Pierce stated if he was banking on the video game, he would not put any cash on Baltimore, who are 3.5 point favorites, even if it was Baltimore directly. That led Johnson to use to go directly up, and the 2 of them consented to toss $1,000 on it.
Ideally, Pierce does not poop his trousers with this bet (if you understand, you understand) and he can gather some great modification from Johnson.
KYLE BRANDT-KURT ANGLE PROMO
NFL expert Kyle Brandt and previous professional wrestler Kurt Angle assembled a definitely hysterical fumbling discount ahead of Steelers-Ravens for CBS Sports. It’s a fitting promo for a physical, classic competition and Brandt brings the energy like normal.
Angle, who matured in Pittsburgh, argued that the Steelers can be AFC North champs, while Brandt argued that the Ravens are much better now than the groups that have actually lost 7 of 8 to the Steelers. We’ll see if the video game can measure up to the buzz tomorrow, and it’s one that has big ramifications for the AFC North standings. As Brandt stated, it may simply come down to whatever group can strike a finisher.
BIG GAME PREDICTED FOR PICKENS
The Baltimore Ravens have actually struggled protecting the pass this season, which might open things up for the Steelers and QB Russell Wilson. Wilson has actually created a good connection with WR George Pickens in the 3 video games that he’s begun this season, and ESPN’s Matt Bowen believes Pickens will have a huge video game versus Baltimore. Bowen anticipated that Pickens will review 100 lawns versus the Ravens.
“In his 3 video games with Russell Wilson as the Steelers’ beginning quarterback, Pickens has actually balanced 92 getting lawns per video game and practically 20 lawns per reception. Versus a Ravens defense that’s enabling a league-worst 294.9 passing lawns per video game, he will have chances to develop explosive plays at the 3rd level of the field.”
A huge video game for Pickens must indicate advantages for the Steelers, and we’ll see if he and the Steelers can make the most of Baltimore’s permeable pass defense.
