    I dont care how much reverse they do.....steelers is the play

    now +1 at most books, or pk em at worst. Head scratcher. Rams are more like the team we saw last week. Limited running game to be kind, no good receivers, they cant utilize austin for some reason, shaky QB protection, vs antonio brown, and yes...Leveon Bell is back. I think he, along with deangelo carve up the rams inside and receivers have a field day with play-action. Ben plays best when pressured a bit, rams give pressure and get a few sacks but cant resist this line.
    I'll take rams later on the season when they are catching 7 to 10 points at home, not a pick em against a team that played @NE well, and blew out SF, and have their all purpose RB back.

    That is crazy RLM. It was like 90% on Pitt at one point. I'm all over the bait and will ride or die with the public on this one.

    This feels like the Steelers/Jets game last year. A tailor made letdown spot for Pittsburgh on the road against a team who can play some defense. Rams or nothing for me.

    There are a lot of lopsided and reversing spreads this week.

    Interesting week.

    Always take the points when Rams are at home.

    No question about it. This feels very similar.

    Rams will take this game. Very inconsistent team, it's hard to judge them based on the previous week. Also Gurley will make his appearance to help give this team the needed win to avoid another slow start to a season. Antonio Brown will have a big day but not enough to help win the game.

    Unless Pitt just lays an egg they should win easily. I can't see Nick Foles making enough passes in the passing game to best Pitt.

    This game has pedestrian written all over it for Steelers with Thur. on deck with division game. Bell back 1st game is enough, 8 in the box, you pick your poison if your the Rams...Steelers cover, taking Big Ben over Foles

    Are you saying that the Steelers having a game Thursday is somehow beneficial for them in this contest? Oh boy.

    Well I will take an ugly win cashing ticket over an entertaining loss any day. Boy rams are pathetic offensively. I think only dolphins are as bad. And I root for both teams sadly usually being in LA and a diehard Marino fan

    Winning this Pittsburgh bet is like calling an all in with 2-7 off suit and catching four clubs to make a flush while the other guy's three of a kind with pocket aces don't hold up. Sure, you won money. But don't fool yourself, you have no idea what you're doing here.

    I'm pretty sure the whole point of gambling is winning money.

    At least he made a winning gut pick, something we don't see enough here in this forum.
