Detroit Lions at Pittsburgh Steelers 8/28/22 - NFL Picks & Predictions

The Detroit Lions will travel on the road to the state of Pennsylvania to face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers in week three of the NFL preseason on Sunday, August 28 for a scheduled kick off time of 4:30 PM Eastern and you can find all of the NFL picks. This game will be available on CBS. Detroit comes into this game with a record on the preseason of 1-1, and we are victorious in their last game on the road against the Indianapolis Colts. Tim Boyle was the team leader for Detroit in passing with 99 yards and one touchdown.

The Pittsburgh Steelers come into this game with a preseason record of two wins, zero losses, with their last victory coming on the road against the Jacksonville jaguars by the score of 16–15. Mason Rudolph was the team leader for the Pittsburgh Steelers in passing with 127 yards and one touchdown.

For Detroit, Jared Goff has already solidified the spot of starting quarterback and will see limited action this week. Tim Boyle, and David Blough are fighting for the back up position in Detroit. 

The Pittsburgh Steelers are sporting Mason Rudolph, Mitchell Trubisky, and first round draft pick Kenny Pickett out of Pittsburgh at the quarterback position. All three of these quarterbacks should be able to move the ball down field against second team defenses.

With the amount of experience at the quarterback position for Pittsburgh, and a highly touted rookie probably taking most of the snaps this week, we see the Pittsburgh Steelers coming away with a victory against Detroit at home. Final Score Prediction: Pittsburgh Steelers win by the score of 28–21.
