A primetime game and AFC North showdown between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns with a low total (38.5 points) doesn’t exactly signal an exciting game. But that doesn’t mean there is not a same-game parlay (SGP) to bet.
The even better news is FanDuel is running a promo for tonight: The Thursday Night Football No Sweat Same Game Parlay! Make sure to opt-in first, and if your SGP bet of three legs or more (and +400 odds or more) loses, then you get your wager back in free bets (be sure to read the fine print).
For every primetime NFL game, this article will share the best same-game parlay and the reasoning behind it. Here is the Steelers vs. Browns slip from FanDuel Sportsbook for Thursday night’s game.
NFL Same Game Parlay: Steelers vs. Browns Betting Picks
Again, make sure to opt into the No Sweat SGP first. Since that contest allows bettors to essentially play with house money, and this bet is risk-free, this parlay is a little riskier by betting on the underdog. This game is not projected to have many touchdowns, so avoid Anytime Touchdown bets.
Leg 1: Pittsburgh Steelers Moneyline (+168)
Mike Tomlin hasn’t had a losing season in 15 seasons, his entire tenure with the Steelers. On a short week, he will find a way to get Mitch Trubisky and this offense right. The public agrees, as 75% of the money is coming in on the Steelers moneyline, per the Action Network.
Leg 2: Mitchell Trubisky 200+ Passing Yards (-104)
Speaking of Trubisky, he and the offense have struggled the first two weeks. But the Browns secondary has had its struggles too, most notably, letting Joe Flacco lead the Jets to a comeback win Sunday. If Flacco can torch the Browns for 300 yards and four touchdowns, Trubisky can pass for 200-plus yards.
Leg 3: Diontae Johnson 60+ Receiving Yards (+110)
Johnson is a target monster for the Steelers and has had 22 targets in the first two games. If he and Trubisky can connect a few more times than they did in the first two games, then he should easily reach this line of 60 yards receiving.
Steelers vs. Browns Same Game Parlay Odds (+690)
Since it is a risk-free bet, this same-game parlay plays things a little riskier by betting on the underdog throughout the slip.
