Radiators quit calling people out, this isn't what this site is about. This is one of the reasons I never actually post on this site. I only post when idiots like you call people out for posting their thoughts. Congratulations you are douche number 5 or 6 can't remember it's been awhile. And I guess since I had to actually type..... give me the Steelers, no rhyme or reason just seem to be getting the job done. Not to mention home field advantage on the line. GL all.

Ditto my man. Good for you.


Last 6 or 7 in this series have gone over. Considering the Titans Defensive injuries and Kerry Collins knack for throwing ints. I am leaning Steelers and the over.BOL to all

Presuming that game in HOU wasn't the TiTANS version of the rope-a-dope, the Steele City should win this game.

Haynesworth being out for this game is a key loss for the Titans.This would have been a good defensive battle between the 2. Titans blew it last week against the Texans but that's why I'm leaning on the Titans to bounce back in this one early taking points at home.

I like the Titans in the 1st half due to weird calls that happen to the Steelers at the final minutes in games that can either go for or against you ats.

Titans at the half +1

Aloha and good luck to all

Pitt -2 ( 4 units)
 
 One word Albert Haynesworth! The Titans are 3-13 since 2004 when Haynesworth is out. Did you see what Steve Slaton did to Tennesse after Hayneswoth left the game when they played a couple of weeks ago. Well if you missed it tune in today at 1:00 and you can watch Willie Parker do it to Tennessee!
  Pitt has had one of the most impressive 3 game winning streaks beating New England,Dallas and Baltimore. I have also been impressed with Big Ben and the way he has taken this Offense on his back and lead them to victory over and over ( love him or hate him he is a leader who knows how to win).
  I think Pitt brings it today and with Haynesworth out I expect 100+ out of Parker and another Steelers victory!

I bet on the Steelers last night for a Small sized play because I just loved them early on.  I got the line at -2.5.  Now it's down to -1!?  I've got a really bad feeling about this now.  Anyone else wondering what's going on with the line?  Would like to hear some thoughts since I've been focusing much more on college basketball and less on NFL the past month I really don't know what's going on.

Line is -2 to -2.5 at 85% of the books.

To me (and I'm not much of a pro capper) but Kerry Collins has reversed back to his old ways again... bad decision, inaccurate throws.  No Haynesworth to stop Pitts running game, and a Steelers defense that is a wall against the run.... so that to me means it puts the load on Kerry Collins to make plays with his arm... and this is where the Titans get in trouble..... so I'm taking Pitt for 1g (unless Irish tells me I'm crazy - he did make me some good jack with that Baltimore pick)  Sharp

I'm looking at Pinnacle which I consider to be the sharpest of online books.  They are first movers.

Pitt -1  @ -125
Titants +1 @ +117

Yet the book I actually bet at is sportsbook.com and they are showing

Pitt -2.5 @ -110
Titants +2.5  @ -110

Someone analyze and explain.

Pitt Offense - not playing well, but well enough to win.
Pitt Defense - scoring more than some NFL offenses
Their home field is worth more than the normal 3 points, so -1 has shocking line value.
 
College Sharp - dead on the money - Collins is still Collins.  Somebody said "jabberwalky" and woke him up from the trance and now he is playing like he played most of his career here at Carolina - he sucks.
 
Vince Young may play in the second half due to Collins getting pounded.  (Of course only in Young wants to play).
 
Steelers -1

By the way - slang terms (rice rider) and then comebacks are so juvenile.

Could not have said it any better myself.  Titans without Haynesworth?  Hahahaha...Anyone on the Titans should seriously get their mental health checked out. 

STEELERS -2.5

I am going to play the over here. I think the Steelers -1 and Over. I think Pitt will finally be able to score a little with Haynesworth and Bosch out. I think that is just 2 huge injuries.

Since the line opened at -1 they can't move it much or they open up to being caught on a middle so they are instead moving action away from Pitt by pumping the juice to -125 and asking you to take Tn +117.

Sportsbook has moved both to -2.5 -110 looking for equal action at that number.

 I don't  think anyone will move it past 2.5 across the key number 3.

Pittsburgh has been paying out this season. They've more than surprised. Still, this is a gigantic contest, and Tennessee knows what's on the line.
Titans own the Steelers in Nashville as well (have a look at that history).
Between the Venetian and Mirage (it is now 07.20 in Vegas), I haven't heard one bettor chime in, "I'll take Tennessee", nor call out their number for a parlay. Many are riding that Steelers chuck wagon. Not today.
Tennessee will cover this spread, winning by six.
Chris Johnson will be the first opposing back to reach 100 yds vs Pittsburgh. This is for AFC home field throughout!
Fisher takes the edge over Tomlin here.
Titans 23 Steelers 17

Please tell me you were kidding....You don't know if home field advantage is all that important to them? WHAT?!?!?  Yea I totally agree that they will roll over and play dead, b/c you know, who would want to be stuck with home field advantage in the playoffs.

If your going to pick against the Steelers, at least tell me how you think the titans are going to win.  Don't make up some fictional mindstate that you think the steelers are in.

Gonna see if the line moves one last time. If it goes to +3, im all over Tennessee.
 
Might get antsy and take them +2.5 right before kickoff.
