Week 7 of the 2022 NFL season includes a Sunday Night Football showdown between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami Dolphins. The Steelers finally put an end to their four-game losing streak last week, grabbing a 20-18 upset victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Dolphins, on the other hand, didn't see much success last week. Mike McDaniel's team suffered a 24-16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, marking Miami's third straight loss. Only time will tell if the Dolphins can put an end to the skid this week.

Steelers vs Dolphins Prediction & Pick
The Steelers' victory last week should be celebrated, but it's important to point out that it had a lot to do with the Buccaneers underperforming. Pittsburgh has still been held to 20 or fewer points in regulation in each of its games so far this season, making it tough to trust Mike Tomlin's team if Tua Tagovailoa makes his return to Miami's lineup.
When Tagovailoa has completed a game this season, the Dolphins have averaged 27.7 points compared to 16.0 PPG over their most recent three games. Miami also owns a top-10 scoring defense at home this season, whereas the Steelers have the NFL's third-worst offense.
Even with the Steelers' recent momentum, Tagovailoa's potential return should motivate the Dolphins to win in primetime.
Final Score Prediction: Dolphins: 26 | Steelers: 16

Steelers vs Dolphins Best Bet
Over the last few weeks, neither the Steelers nor the Dolphins have been putting out eye-popping numbers. While I predict Miami to win by two possessions, I'm still expecting a low-scoring affair here compared to the projected total.
Give me under 44.5 points at -110 odds here.
Bet: Under 44.5 Points (-110)
