Top 4 Prop Bets for Steelers vs Bengals Week 11 Matchup

NFL Betting Tips · - ·

Publish Date: 11/15/2025
Fact checked by: Mike Goodpaster

The Bengals head into Week 11 as road underdogs in Pittsburgh with a total sitting around 50. Cincinnati’s defense has turned almost every game into a track meet. But quarterback Joe Flacco has stabilized the offense enough to keep pace. With Aaron Rodgers on the other side and both teams leaning on veteran quarterbacks, there are several playable props on the board.

Here are four Steelers–Bengals props to consider.

Tee Higgins anytime touchdown (+130)

Cincinnati has turned back into a pass–first operation with Flacco under center, and that is good news for Tee Higgins in the red zone. The Bengals have cleared 30 points in three straight weeks, and Flacco already hung three touchdown passes on Pittsburgh in their earlier meeting.

Higgins remains one of the primary options near the goal line and on back–shoulder throws outside the numbers. In a game where the Bengals are projected to chase points as underdogs and throw at an elevated rate, plus–money on Higgins to find the end zone is worth a look.

Chase Brown under 58.5 rushing yards

Running back Chase Brown faces a tough setup to get to 60 rushing yards. Cincinnati’s defensive issues keep forcing this team into pass–heavy scripts, and Flacco’s presence only leans further into the aerial attack. The Bengals have been winning through volume in the passing game.

With the Bengals often playing catch–up and the Steelers typically strong up front, this number asks a lot from a back who is not guaranteed 20 carries. The under matches both game environment and usage trends.

Joe Flacco over 1.5 passing touchdowns

Joe Flacco has turned this Bengals offense into one of the more entertaining units in the league. Cincinnati needs Flacco to keep firing to stay competitive because of a leaky defense that gives up the most points per game. Flacco threw three touchdowns in a win over the Steelers earlier in the year, then led the Bengals to 33, 38 and 42 points in his last three outings.

Aaron Rodgers over 232.5 passing yards

On the other sideline, Rodgers draws exactly the type of defense you want to attack through the air. Cincinnati has been one of the worst scoring defenses in the league, and its games continually sail over the total. The Bengals’ inability to consistently get stops has forced opponents to stay aggressive.

Conclusion

Rodgers has the benefit of a defense that can build leads and an opponent that can answer, which helps keep his pass volume steady. With Flacco and the Bengals capable of putting up points again, Pittsburgh is unlikely to spend the entire second half in clock–killing mode. In a matchup that leans toward another shootout script and with a modest passing line in the low 230s, Rodgers over 232.5 passing yards fits the way this game is likely to be played.
