Overview
- SportsLine's self-learning AI projects Pittsburgh to cover as a 3-point home underdog against Indianapolis and forecasts an average 28-26 Steelers win.
- The projection model advises avoiding Denver in survivor pools, with simulations favoring Houston to win despite the Broncos' strong record.
- A top model play has the Chargers covering -9.5 at Tennessee in nearly 60% of simulations, noting the Titans’ 4-21 against-the-spread record since 2024.
- Week 9 features polarized lines, including five spreads under a field goal and five over a touchdown, with Kansas City a 1.5-point road favorite at Buffalo.
- SportsLine markets a five-leg parlay it says could return nearly $18,000 on a $10 bet, and CBS Sports packages the model’s outputs with expert exact-score picks, DFS tools and fantasy rankings.
