RAIDERS @ STEELERS (November 21st)

ngates815 · 11-08-10, 03:35 PM

Too bad it's @ Pitt.

The line will be higher than a TD.

dodger33 · 11-08-10, 04:26 PM

Raiders have the talent. If they can limit mistakes and penalties they will be in this game.

GunShard · 11-08-10, 05:31 PM

Didn't the Raiders beat the Steelers last season with Jamarcus Russell?

iifold · 11-14-10, 10:25 PM

This Pats/Steelers game might give us a good line for next weeks game..

If the Steelers continue to look "bad" in this game I say the line opens at -6..

Steelers might be my Play of the Year next week..,

onetrickpony · 11-14-10, 11:00 PM

damnit i like the way u think iifold

dodger33 · 11-14-10, 11:37 PM

-8.5 no gift.. everyone will be on pitt this week

raidersfan · 11-14-10, 11:54 PM

No one thought that the Raiders would be in First in their division....I would not count them out....the raiders will come out and play.

raiders510 · 11-14-10, 11:56 PM

we will put up a fight....but steelers should win here. it will be a must win,..however this is a no-play because i do not bet my team

k13 · 11-14-10, 11:58 PM

Looks better after a Steelers loss.

Lucky for them, Gradkowski is not starting so steelers, only questions is by how much? right ? right?

Cicima6709 · 11-14-10, 11:59 PM

Steelers suck

blackbox · 11-15-10, 12:03 AM

I take pitt. At -8 and also tease to -2.

raiders32 · 11-15-10, 12:07 AM

The Steelers shouldn't have any problem beating Oakland. Should cover up to 10.

iifold · 11-15-10, 12:19 AM

I'm thinking it will go to 7..

Gonna wait...

PTB · 11-15-10, 12:34 AM

im hoping line favors PIT after a pretty sub par SNF performance, McFadden won't do shit vs PIT and I doubt Cambell will ever pass for 300+ yards again this year - curious to see where it opens

iifold · 11-15-10, 05:23 PM

Pit -7 -125 at 5Dimes..

which way will this line go?

i bet it gets to 6.5 at some point this week...

DrunkHorseplayer · 11-15-10, 06:21 PM

Down on Pit -7.5; this bye week came at the worst possible time for Oakland.

ChileCheese · 11-15-10, 06:25 PM

Isnt anyone concerned about how bad the Steelers Offensive Line looked on Sunday? OAK would have to be pretty stupid not to bring the same Blitz Packages. The only reason the Steelers started putting up point was because New England let up a bit near the end. Although I will say, missing Heinz Ward for the game was a big issue. Does anyone know if he will be cleared to play next week?
I just think its not that much a stretch to have OAK cover a TD coming off a bye week. They have only been blown out of 1 game this year, and have shown to be a much more resilient group

iifold · 11-18-10, 04:38 AM

Steelers -7 -115 at 5dimes now..

I advise everyone to tease the Steelers with everything else they play this week...

mad_admiral · 11-18-10, 04:51 AM

I would take -7 on this game for sure

Numb · 11-18-10, 05:01 AM

I'm not a fan of Pittsburgh, at all, however I don't see that team getting beat in back to back games, plus both at Heinz field. So the insurance tease seems absolutely certain to me. This is the same logic I used in taking New England last week after their flub in Cleveland.

bill2266 · 11-18-10, 05:59 AM

i hoping there offense comes out to play control the line and get the running game going

Chris7mccabe · 11-18-10, 11:42 AM

Theyreeeee allllllllllll on the steelllllllllllllllllahhhhhhhhsssssss

brettley · 11-18-10, 01:36 PM

As a die hard Raiders fan for all my life....I say the Raiders lose big. Ever since that superbowl in 2002/2003, we have lost every big game esp ones that can 'right' our seasons.

This is a game that could put them in the drivers seat in the division as they hold the tie breaker at 3-0 in the afc west. Unfortunately... these have a tendancy to lose big in these spots bc they aren't used to winning. See the houston and denver games last year. Yes they beat KC last week but in the 1st half they had 2 first downs and needed some very inspired play, special teams breaks incl. a td, and opponent mistakes just to take an overrated (imo) KC team to overtime.

Pitt will not make the same mistakes and will be hungry to erase the NE blowout from their minds as well as revenge the loss they had at home last year.

Will I play this game? Not sure as I really want to root for the raiders since I haven't enjoyed a winning season in a long time.... however I may go ahead w/ a small play so I have some solace after the raiders get their ass handed to them.

Pitt. 34-13

onetrickpony · 11-18-10, 02:56 PM

raiders choke in this game easy, is namadi still out?

Three Wins in a row and the Raiders still get no respect? Raiders know how big this game is and will be prepared for everthing that the Steelers bring.

tad0matic · 11-18-10, 06:00 PM

Raiders look like a good backdoor cover at 7.5 but I've been thnking of placing them on my 6.5 teaser, how's raiders +14 sound? Steelers aint blowing anybodys doors off.

raiders32 · 11-19-10, 12:04 AM

Steelers should take this one, but I hope Raiders can somehow win.

raidersfan · 11-19-10, 12:51 AM

The Raiders will be coming in fresh and excited while the steelers are still wrapping their heads around last weeks whooping. It's expected to doubt the Raiders based on their record for the last decade, but we beat them last year and we can beat them this year.

lakerboy · 11-19-10, 01:11 AM

The steelers secondary is garbage. The sooner you see this the better.

If you had to tease the game which side would you go with?

I still say that Pittsburgh team doesn't lose two in a row at Heinz field. Teasing them to a low favorite is a very, very safe play in my opinion. I look at is as 20 to 7, or 16 to 13 at it's closest.
