I've been noticing from last year that Monday nite football games go over like 90% of the time. So far this year, I believe every Monday nite game has went over the total. Take the overs on Monday. Who cares who wins!!!!

Yes, I look at that trend too! and in 2006 most of it went under. The Monday night game is more likely to go under, unless Denver's offense goes vertical and starts bombing the ball down field. I don't see that happening with Orton's inability to stretch the field. He has don't it all Preseason or Regular season. Most of Denver's scoring drive will be long and time consuming. When they do get to the Redzone, the Steelers defense are good enough to force them to kick a field goal every time.
If we don't get any easy TD's, like a special team's or Defensive return TD, this one's going under. These are not two high power quick offensive scoring teams playing on Monday.

I noticed this last season and tried it this year. The over would be 8-1 including the 2 Monday games to start the season. The only miss was Carolina/Dallas.
