The season is almost over, go make yourself some $ money!
Pittsburgh Steelers at Tennessee Titans
Yes, I did call the upset of the week last Sunday with the Texans over Titans in Houston. This Tennessee team has gotten away with winning too many close games this year and I knew they’d trip up in that spot on the road, at least that was some of the logic behind my “Play of the Year.” The Titans had all kinds of problems running and throwing the ball last week against Houston. How do you think they’ll fair against Pittsburgh? I guess they’re going to ask Collins to win this one with his arm, because I don‘t see Fat-Boy White and the Rookie running all over Pittsburgh in this one. The problem with that is, Pittsburgh has been solid against the pass all year and they’ve sacked the quarterback nearly 50 times this year .
In my opinion, Tennessee might be the worst 12-2 team I have ever seen! Think about this for a second, and I brought this up before the Houston game, Who the f*** has Tennessee beat this year (as of late) in a convincing fashion? And don’t tell me Detroit! To add to that, the Titans have bigger problems, Kyle Vanden Bosch and Albert Haynesworth will be watching this one from the sidelines on Sunday. I know the Steelers don’t have a great O-Line, but without Vanden Bosch and Haynesworth out there, I’d be absolutely shocked if Pittsburgh struggles running the ball. The Steelers have won a lot of close games this year so I don’t expect this one to be easy, but I do expect them to win by at least 6 or 7 points. This game is huge for both teams, home field advantage throughout the playoffs, in a conference that’s tough as hell right now!
Score Prediction: Steelers 20, Titans 13

San Diego Chargers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers
I’m going to keep this one short & sweet. I guess you could say that this is an interesting game at first glance, but the more you look into this one, the more you question the line. In the beginning of the week my local had this one set at TB -3. You can bet your a** I jumped all over that one! The Chargers were dominated by the Chiefs (21-3) for the better part of that game last Sunday. I had this game capped at about TB -7 or -6 at the least. So even at -3.5 or -4 I still see a lot of value in TB. It’s amazing to think that at 6-8, the Chargers are somehow still in the playoff picture?
Tampa Bay played a decent game at Atlanta last Sunday (with the exception of that piss poor Run-D). Brian Griese also played much better than I would have thought. So with the Buccaneers playing so poorly against the run surely LT will have a huge day against Tampa’s D right? Wrong, LT had 40 f****** yards on the ground vs. the Chiefs (ranked last in the league vs. the run). Alright then, Phillip Rivers to the rescue! Nope, Tampa hasn’t lost a step in their Pass-D, they picked off Matt Ryan twice last week on the road, so expect more of the same vs. the unpredictable Phillip Rivers.
We’re not really sure who’s going to get the nod at QB for Tampa, but I don’t think it really matters. Tampa should dominate this game, these west coast teams are f****** soft and they play like s*** on the east coast late in the year! I’m expecting a huge day out of the TB defense and solid performances by Williams, Dunn, Bryant, and Clayton. Furthermore I’ll take Gruden over Turner any day of the week. Throw all the bullshit trends out the f****** window in this one, Tampa Bay BIG.
