Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Denver Broncos Week 9 NFL Picks: It would have been unfathomable to think at the beginning of the season that the Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Denver Broncos game tonight on Monday night  could be a future AFC championship game. With Denver (6-1) being the surprise team of the NFL and the Steelers looking like the team that won the Superbowl last year however that is a distinct possibility. Denver is coming off a humbling 7-30 loss to the Baltimore Ravens as +4.5 away favorites. Pittsburgh (5-2) showed why they are the champs last week by handing the Minnesota Vikings their first loss of the season 27-17 as -6 home favorites. Below is a free sports picks play to help clean up on the bookies.

Free Sports Picks Analysis: The Ravens gave the rest of the teams in the NFL the blueprint for beating the Broncos and the Steelers are a very similar team to Baltimore. If you can shut down the Broncos run and make them rely on ball-control QB Kyle Orton they are not that powerful. The Broncos are not built to win games that involve having to win through physicality and attrition.
 
Denver is a running team but they are not a smash you in the mouth squad. Smash mouth squads are exactly what will give Denver problems this year and no team is better at that style of football than Pittsburgh. This Monday Night Football play should be played moderately because Denver is still a good squad but the Steelers match-up advantages and freshness off the bye make them a solid selection.
