The Pittsburgh Steelers host the Panthers on Thursday and they are favored in 2010 NFL sport betting. Since they will want to give quarterback Ben Roethlisberger some work since he’ll be sitting out the first four games of the regular season, the Pittsburgh Steelers might have a huge advantage in this match vs the NFL preseason odds. 
2010 NFL preseason sports betting in Week 4 is typically all about the backups. Due to the fact they fear injury, squads don’t want to risk their starters. Because Roethlisberger won’t play for the first month of the year, that isn’t going to be the situation in this match. It is generally good news for that team when a starting quarterback gets playing time in a preseason match vs backups for the other team.
Bettors Taking Pittsburgh – The Pittsburgh Steelers are the pick by bettors at the online sports books in this event. The Carolina Panthers are not high on the list for bettors anyhow. They’ve got a pretty good running game with DeAngelo Williams and Jonathan Stewart, but neither of them is likely to play a great deal in this game. Starting quarterback Matt Moore should not see much time either. Do bettors actually want to be risking money on the Carolina Panthers with Jimmy Clausen at quarterback?
Pittsburgh Steelers other Quarterbacks – Someone has to play quarterback after Big Ben, which is another reason to take the Pittsburgh Steelers. Byron Leftwich and Dennis Dixon have been fighting for the starting position. That means when you wager on the Pittsburgh Steelers in this match, you get three quality quarterbacks.
Carolina Panthers Offense is Having Difficulties – Carolina has been pretty unimpressive vs the NFL preseason odds. As they’ve won 12, 3 and 15 points in their three preseason games, they’ve done pretty little on offense. To say that Carolina is struggling is actually an understatement. They’re not moving the ball in any way. It should be noted however that wide receiver Steve Smith and running back Jonathan Stewart have not come out. Matt Moore hasn’t looked great, though they would of course help. However he isn’t the only one. Have you any idea how poor the Carolina quarterbacks are lately? Their combined quarterback rating is 51.1 in the preseason. That’s simply unacceptable.
Defense – The Carolina defense has been fantastic in the preseason. They have 18 sacks in three games and they are permitting just 184.7 yards per game.
