WOW!!! Heath & now the All-Pro "Captain" of the O-Line Pouncey are out? Mendenhall's gone and now Harrison's going to be coming after Big Ben?? What's next??

Going to be a looooong and painful season. Maybe time to close the "Steel Curtains" and rebuild.....

Bungles -6.5

Also, for anyone who cares - here's my degenerate gambler's M/L special. Pays +260. "Just Win, BABY!!!!"

Patriots, Ravens, Texans, Falcons, Bengals

Hopefully I'm still in it by this game, because it would probably more than pay for a whole weekend of gambling.....

Good Luck All!!!!!

     When the Bungles blow a lead and cover last week, then there still not ready for prime time or Pittsburgh!

PITTSBURGH   +   7  (Prime Play!)

the play is over 40 , with the new NFL rules out there , it favors the offense , Defense's just cant do what they used to . Hence we have had on average , higher scoring games . 40 points is just too small a number  , Game will end up  24 to 21

Good Luck!!

Only thing worrying me is that we're putting all of our faith in the Bungles! But, we knew this going in.....

Steelers are12-2 at Paul Brown Stadium  and beat the Bungles 24-17 last year with a depleted line up.

Steelers +7  

Honestly the only reason I would want to take the Steelers is to fade the public. Public all in on saints and niners yesterday and what happened there?

The thing is I cant find any reason, other than I still believe in the Steelers D, that Pitt keeps this close. I see Cincy's front seven getting tons of pressure on Ben.

HELP A BROTHA OUT! give me some insight on why I should fade the public and take the steelers

I agree. I faded the public on Bolts/Texans last week based solely on that reasoning (and Hous is terrible in the spotlight). I don't think these teams are that much different than last year. Pitt didn't have an all-pro line last year and both games were played in the teens. I think this is 1 of those games where you have to just go against the grain. Everyone is all over Cincy and the line isn't budging. I'll take the points in a low scoring game. At worst, I see Pitt getting a late back door cover. We see how Cincy collapsed last week late.

For what it's worth, the simulator has Pitt covering almost 70% and winning SU at almost 50/50. Steelers 11-1-1 in Cincy also has to say something. Cincy wins but there won't be a blowout in a tough division game. Look at yesterday's divison games where the dog had no business covering but found a way. (Minn, TB, Jets, Hou)

yea I listen to someone who thinks the steelers are playing their first home game of the season. CMON MAN!
