“We don’t have a chance. So, let’s just go in and play and have fun,” said Ben Roetlisberger on the Steelers’ upcoming wild card game versus the Kansas City Chiefs.

With the NFL’s Wild Card games only a few days away, it’s clear that the mind games have already begun.

The Pittsburgh Steelers (9-7-1) will be the biggest underdogs of Wild Card weekend when they visit the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday at 8:15 p.m. Pennsylvania online sports betting apps have a menu of odds, betting lines, and team and player props for wild card weekend.

Let’s take a look at the options at ways to bet on the Steelers at PA sportsbooks.

Steelers vs. Chiefs Wild Card Odds

Steelers vs. Chiefs preview

The Steelers entered Week 18 with a 2% chance of making the NFL playoffs. But, thanks to a Jacksonville Jaguars upset of the Colts and they were able to slip into the NFL’s postseason as a No.7 seed. At 12-5, the Kansas City Chiefs won the AFC West and look to return to the Super Bowl for the third-straight year.

But anything can happen in the NFL playoffs and Roethlisberger knows that more than anyone. In 2006, Big Ben and the Steelers won Super Bowl XL as a No. 6 seed, becoming the lowest seed ever to win an NFL title. Now, with the NFL Playoffs expanded to include 7 teams in each conference, the Steelers will look to repeat that feat once again and extend Roethlisberger’s career another game.  So, Roethlisberger and his teammates won’t be the only ones having fun. A few wagers can bring the playoff excitement to you too.
