Thursday Night Football kicks off Week 7 with a fierce AFC North rivalry, as the Pittsburgh Steelers visit the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium. Bet365 has released fresh player prop markets ahead of kickoff, including Kenneth Gainwell to score a touchdown at +180, offering strong value for bettors targeting one of Pittsburgh’s red-zone threats.
Gainwell’s role continues to expand in the Steelers’ offense, especially inside the 10-yard line. The versatile running back has logged two touchdowns in his last four outings, showing consistent involvement as both a rusher and short-yardage receiver.
At +180, a successful $10 wager on Gainwell to score would return $28 total — a compelling pick given his recent workload trends and Pittsburgh’s reliance on multiple backs near the goal line.
Odds accurate at the time of publication and subject to change.
Dimers’ predictive analytics model gives the Steelers a 69% chance of winning, but the Bengals (+5.5) remain a favorable cover option with a 54% probability of beating the spread.
Dimers also projects a 54% chance the Under (44.5) hits, suggesting a defensive battle where touchdowns could be limited — adding value to individual scorer props like Gainwell’s.
Our top pick for Thursday’s matchup remains Bengals +5.5 (-110), but Gainwell’s anytime touchdown prop stands out as a secondary value play.
With quarterback Aaron Rodgers continuing to lean on his backfield for short completions, Gainwell’s combination of speed and vision makes him a live scoring threat against a Bengals defense that has struggled to contain pass-catching running backs this season.
Dimers’ projected final score: Steelers 24, Bengals 19.
This projection, derived from 10,000 simulations, aligns with a moderate offensive output from both sides and supports Gainwell’s potential to find the end zone once.
Touchdown markets remain among the most popular NFL player props each week. Dimers’ model projects the following scoring probabilities for Thursday’s game:
Pittsburgh Steelers
Cincinnati Bengals
Projected passing leaders:
Joe Flacco: 242 yards, 2 TDs
Aaron Rodgers: 221 yards, 1 TD
