Steelers git 'er dun 'ere.

Should win by at least 10 pts. I might take an adjusted line for this game.

Don't count the Phins out just yet, they are capable of covering here IMO.  They play solid D and with a few timely turnovers might just surprise a few folks ??   Miami will have to use the pass to open up the run on this Steelers D !  The Steelers are 24th in the league in passing yards given up but 1st in rushing D !  Both Williams and Brown average over 4 yards per rushing attempt.  No doubt the Phins will get little respect here from gamblers, all I'm saying is don't be surprised if they show up at Sun Life Stadium ready to play and keep this one within a FG ?  

I'm not sure if I really believe that crap or not ..... early lean Steelers -3 !

Waiting on you guys and the whole nation to go for the Steelers, so the line can hopefully go up.

Then, I'll get a terrible towel to wipe my ass.

I'll be on the Dolphins with no less than +3 points.

MIA +3

You are going to have to use the terrible towel to wipe the tears off of all the Miami Dolphin fans face. The Dolphins are a good team because they run the ball effectively which allows them to create passing plays. The steelers on the otherhand are very good at stopping the run. Chad Henne is going to have to go to his passing game. There will easily be 2 interceptions thrown by Chad Henne in this game. Mike Wallace will also expose the mediocre Dolphin CB's.

PITTSBURGH -3

Tears of joy after I hit this bet (I hope ).  Yes, you're right about the Dophins pass D.  They're playing at home, so I think they're going to be pumped enough to show Ben that he might be a little rusty.  To make things worse for the Steelers, James Harrison contemplating retirement is going to play a huge factor on how they prepare for the game.  The team needs him more than they think they do.

BTW, the NFL is a joke.  Should be NFFL.  National Flag Football League.  I don't blame Harrison for being pissed off for this new rule change DURING the middle of the season.

If the line was 2.5 here I'd take the Dolphins. Covering the 3 points will be the Pittsburg if they go in overtime or a last 4th minute kick. Leaning on the under.

most likely based on their meeting last season. thigpen rallied the fins to make it close against the steelers in the 4th quarter. don't think steelers will have anymore 4th qtr letdowns like last season.

Let's analyze the 1 impressive victory for the Steelers:  vs. the unbalanced offense of the Titans.  Now let's analyze the 1 loss for the Steelers:  vs. the balanced offense of the Ravens.

Stock has gone up on Pittsburgh like they're the team to beat in the AFC.  Because they outsmarted Vince Young?  Because they managed to squeak out a victory vs. the Falcons in OT @ Pittsburgh?

Nearly 67% of the consensus is taking Pittsburgh as a road fave vs. Miami.  If anything, Pittsburgh can only win this game by a field goal.  But with Miami coming off a huge road victory and yet to win a home game, I see Dolphins ML written all over this matchup.  Sorry Steeler Fans, but these aren't the Browns who didn't have an offense last week.  This also isn't Henne's 1st NFL game as it was for McCoy last week.

Also: Miami is 2nd most winningest team to Pittsburgh since 1970 merger.  Pittsburgh has only 1 more victory than Miami!  Unbelievable stat. 

DOLPHINS M/L and it won't be easy.....IS IT EVER?  HAHA

So your trying to say that the Steelers have not beaten a good team yet. I guess you forgot they were playing all those games with Dixon and Batch at QB. Steelers actually have a good offense with Big Ben back. Last year the steelers were 3 point favorites and they won. Same thing this year. BANK IT!

Wow.  Did u really say BANK IT?  Please stop that.  Last year, btw-  Phins had to play entire 2nd half with backup QB's Pat White & Tyler Thigpen because Chad Henne had an eye injury.  And Steelers barely won with 40 seconds left in the game.  This will be a huge revenge game for the Phins.  And that's about as much as I'm gonna share with you because of 2 main reasons:

#1:  u sounded like a tool when u said "BANK IT!"

#2:  I only like to share opinions with those who actually back up their pick with some sort of analysis other than "Same thing as last year!"

Go put ur farm on Pittsburgh, u dork.....

yeah this game can go either way. i had pitt on a 10 point teaser at home -4 last week against the browns. all i know is  i was sweating this game out till the 4th. the browns moved the ball on a #1 defence with a rookie QB making his 1st NFL start. so why couldn`t miami win this game down in miami? im a teaser guy and i dont like either miami+13 or pitt+7 on a tease...

the NFL is crazy "BANK ON IT"

UNDER 42 (-125)

take away  the 2 special teams TD's and the pick-6, and the 'phins hold brady (with a healthy untraded moss)to 156 yards thru the air...

beside that contest, the only roll over they had against was the divisional game against the JETS where sanchez went off...

also....
cameron wake is a machine!!!!
this is a big game for him, he will be playing absolutely amped up for this contest to prove to everyone that he is the current legitimate DE/OLB pass rusher hybrid!!


so...

that combined with what we already know about how Pitt's D works?? i say under here, this is a mild blessing to have 41 on the running line...
buy the point to the crucial number now before the price goes higher!
