    $300 on Pit ML +185

    Steelers defense will hold Texans to 2 tds tops. Ben will not have two bad games in a row and Texans are good at some things but they can't handle fast players and Steelers have quick players on offense with Brown and Wallace Saunders.

    Steelers have owned the Texans in the past and I don't even need the +4. $300 on the ML +185.

    Thats the only play i'm doing.

    I think the Eagles will win too its a good teaser. its money. Niners will never win that game.

    Both wagers arent bad, ur getting great value at +185 with the steelers who are better then the texans imo, but it will be tough game.

    I've said this in previous seasons with their injury issues and have been burned badly, but Pitts is tough to play with their injury situation. Their O line is sinking fast.

    The Steelers always seem to figure it out. If they were going into Foxborough I could see them getting 5-6 points, but come on. Houston? I have a feeling it could be a rough day for Schaub. I think the line reflects the score of the INDY game, when in reality, indy only scored 1 offensive td. Ike Taylor is a physical corner and I think he can hold Andre to under 80 yards.

    I'm loving this pick. Been on board since they rolled it out. Pitt in any underdog spot is worth a look.Houston, as good as they've been, isn't the type of team that should shun you away from going with the Steelers here.

    Pitt seems like the solid play here. Just like I said before the Saints last week, Houston is a team on the rise, but not elite yet.

    PITT has looked sick since the start of the year. I'm on HOU and the spread but good luck. Foster should be back and as close to full health as you can expect a RB which should greatly increase their red zone percentage. Remember they hung tight with NO last game. Good luck at any rate Goat

    All that needs to be said is Indy.

    Congrats Goat -- you picked the biggest public dog bet of the week.

    80-90% on PIT ML.

    Good luck with that.

    I'm a huge fan of the Steelers but this game could go either way. The thing that scares me is the passing attack of Houston, I just don't know how we will do. The Steelers have a hard time against good passing offenses, and I'm not sure how our O-line will hold up and what kind of production we will get out of it. It will be a close game though as long as we don't have lots of turnovers like the 1st week against the Ravens.

    It's a huge public dog. Line has moved up.

    I just don't get you sometimes. Have you won any bets recently?

    Steelers offenes can't keep up with the Texans. Steelers pass defense is horrible.

    You will need that +4 against the Texans coming off a loss to N.O. and playing at home

    Steelers O-Line looked horrid against the Colts - I took the Texans at -2.5 and glad I got them there - not sure I'd take them -3.5+

    Sounds like what Titans fans down here are saying about your team.

    Ravens fans say it is an inferiority complex Titans fans have for the Ravens since generally the Ravens own the Titans, always win in the big games between each other, and that the Titans winning a couple weeks ago was like their Super Bowl.

    Now, sub the word "Steelers" for "Ravens" and then "Ravens" for "Titans".

    BTW, disagree with the pick. The Steelers are not yet over their SB loser funk and the Texans' strengths go right at the Steelers' weakness. Pass D will be torched. Ben will get his, but lose in a shootout 33-30, OT.

    Don't agree with this pick.

    I don't think the steelers can keep up offensively.
    They don't have a running game established. Mendenhall is having a rough start to the season and their O line is awful.
    Steelers can stop Foster but who is going to stop Johnson? Steeler weakness is their secondary.

    Hope you cash but going off of owning the Texans in the past is a huge mistake.

    I definitely felt weird giving the points to PITT. But part of me had to look at the numbers and step away from the reputation. I like the Steel but in this instance my feeling is HOU is one of the new lions in the league and PITT has shown a lot of "flab" this year. I can see your point though Goat.

    Hous = real deal
    Lions = sub par
    I bet you the Packers would have been rolled by the saints if the packers were in the dome.
    Dome teams at home are fierce and the fact that Hous almost pulled that off gives them huge points in my stock.

    Steelers defense is the best in the league. By a mile. Polumalu is healthiest he's been in his career.

    I liked it at +185 but locked it in at +175. Steelers win straight up tomorrow I don't need the points.

    Nice start HOU, which I'd have caught it-missed that PITT penalty too. Christ what a gong show to erase that sweet run.
