Um...team that has lost 5 in a row favored over team won 5 a row ?? could someone explain vegas logic/rationale behind this pls. ?  thx.

EASY.   uh, pitt is at home.  has lost 5 in a row.  u dont' think they can't get their stuff together at home?  really?!?!?

Green Bay's O-line has been playing very well the month, unlike the first 8 games.  Devin is right, Pitt is at home and is due.  They really do suck this year, but have good players, especially on D.  Also, with a line like Green Bay +1 and 65% on Green Bay (as expected) something tells me that Rodgers is in for a day and Pitt covers by 7+.

Green Bay - 19

Pitt - 27

GB has won 5 in a row and has the NFL's best December record (53-29) since 1990.

im from baltimore and hate pissburgh, its in my blood. but i gotta respect troy polamalu.. it just shows you how much he makes a difference when he plays. no troy no win.. i just hope they dont beat my boys next week..

  my pick greenbay 20 to 16....... ben rapist-burger needs to go on a diet.... fat ass

Pitt -1 Bounce back in a big way!

It's all about public perception.  Steelers, coming off a Super Bowl win, have a lot off casual fans (winners always do).  A lot of casual bettors see the steelers only giving only one point at home and think its gift.  They don't care that the Steelers have lost five straight or that the defense is D-less with Troy.  They just think the Steelers win games, especially at home.

Although the Pack has about 60% on Covers, I'm guessing that the split is pretty even in the real world.  Give me

GREEN BAY +1
