    Bears -2.5 is a trap?

    The Steelers are going to win a game sooner or later right? Their offensive line is just so bad that I don't see it though.

    I was planning on playing the Steelers before watching them on MNF. Still lean that way, but no action on it at all yet.

    There is a ton of info on teams now, so it is on the short list of games to run a lot of numbers on and see what story they tell.

    Steelers line looks bad without Pouncey. Tease Chicago and make it that much easier

    Why would you EVER tease a -2.5 favorite? WHY?

    Home game, +2.5 underdogs, trap line. Chicago is going to destroy the bum of a football team that Pittsburgh put together this year. Double digit win.

    It's a trap line like NO-3@TB was last week and TB-3@NYJ in Week 1. This CHI line will go to -3 so if you're playing it, get it now. It's not the only one this week either. GB-2.5@CIN is the same thing, but I think CHI is the right side this week.

    Do not ever cross zero on a teaser. Think 3 and 7

    Steelers back against the wall here. Play the Steelers as a home dog or nothing. Defensive Vets will come up big here, might want to take the Steelers and tease it with the under.

    If you have split personalities one of you is square.

    steelers at home getting points screams bet the steelers. just like the super bengals are getting points at home against the packers. take the nfc central teams in both cases.

    The Steelers play good D and can throw short but they are lost trying to run the ball, Had them last week +6.5 and took the L. They were terrible in week one, much better at least in the 1st half last week. Have to pass on them here although I do buy the logic of wanting to play them as a home dog. The Bears are fortunate to not be 0-2.
