Lol It was a good day that day

John, thanks for your hard work on the NFL & especially the SD over pick. It was one of my favourite plays of the season. I put 3 units on it & watching it cash so early in the game was fantastic, as I had a specific goal for that money.

You're one of the class acts on this forum, even during that tough run of losses & criticism you kept your composure and continued to share your knowledge & enthusiasm for the game with the rest of us. Wishing you the best for Xmas & New Year.

Not really

jwes4907 · 12-08-11, 03:30 PM

any thoughts on tonight?

John Ryan · 12-08-11, 04:31 PM

Now, we are starting to get some bigger plays more frequently. Again, this means greater risk too. 10* plays are 4-2 and 20* plays now 2-1 after Monday's winner.

10* Play 'OVER' Cleveland/Pittsburgh based on the simulator grading and projections. This game sets up much the same as Monday's improbable offensive first half out burst. Please, follow the discipline as all fo you did on Monday and RESIST the temptation to set up the bet simply because this is a 10* Titan. Your wager ought to be TWIVE a 5* play and that is it.

I am seeing 40 -110 at the majority of shops. It was 39 1/2 earlier this morning. Not sure if this will move higher towards 40 1/2 , but I definitely do not see it coming down to 39 1/2. So, my recommendation is to make the wager and accept the line given.

John Ryan · 12-08-11, 04:38 PM

Book keeping: 31-22 with 5* plays, 4-2 ATS with 10* plays and 2-1 ATS with 20* plays.

dahurt45 · 12-08-11, 04:46 PM

Would you recommend an over TT on Pitt at 27 as well?

snoopaloop31 · 12-08-11, 05:13 PM

Thanks John. BOL!

Just wanted to say John that i have been tailing your NFL picks all year and your a Beast!! Just wanted to say thanks for all u do on here. I mean the picks the analysis just everything. That being said im a huge Steeler fan and i live 18 minutes from the Stadium and i will obviously be attending the game. Im actually fading this game and probably the only game i will ever fade of yours ecspecially a 10* Titan. I just think with it being in the low 20's after the windchill and Clevelands horrible run defense Pittsburghs just gonna control the clock all game. Pittsburgh will definately hold them to atleast 7 but at most 10. And i hate to say it but Cleveland does have a better than average pass defense. I can actually see this game being 27-10 Pittsburgh. But u never know...Cleveland could back door a TD in there last miracle drive. Anyways good luck as always and keep up the good work this year John. YOUR A BEAST!!

frank416c · 12-08-11, 06:49 PM

What in specific is showing you a play on the over for this game if you don't mind my asking. I had the Chargers / Jags game capped over myself but we disagree on this play. Unless Pitt puts up 30+ points themselves I believe this game stays under the posted total of 40. Both teams have above average defenses and Cleveland's offense is pretty weak in comparison. I see a lot of running, especially Cleveland since Pitt is more susceptible to the run this year.

Just trying to get m ore info to better cap my games in the future

BOL with your play

yD · 12-08-11, 09:50 PM

Not tonight fellas. Wasn't gonna happen even if Ben stayed in. A touchdown reversed and 2 fumbles inside the 20 decided that.

fecgp40 · 12-08-11, 09:52 PM

Big Ben is out. Gonna be tough to go over now. Any ideas for a bailout play at the half John?

PickMeAwinner · 12-08-11, 09:53 PM

Yeah man this sucks

chief42 · 12-08-11, 09:57 PM

2nd half line is 17.5 u -140

Reno Gambler · 12-08-11, 10:15 PM

Mr Ushud,
That website you put in your email nflguru triedto attack my computer not once but twice. Whats up with that??

Reno Gambler · 12-08-11, 10:16 PM

ben is back and steelers are moving

IllyPhilly[DOC] · 12-08-11, 10:16 PM

Yea that stupid BEN has to sit in the pocket super cocky mofo. Well least its Thurs and Not Monday. We have 2 days of bets to make it back.

06Ech0 · 12-08-11, 10:19 PM

What the F is this punt show s***

chief42 · 12-08-11, 10:50 PM

well there goes the 4th touchdown that could have been scored. Should be 35-10 steelers right now. Just the way it goes sometimes

yD · 12-08-11, 11:36 PM

Just stay away from the Steelers John. Been a fan forever and they are the hardest team to predict week in and week out. I couldn't resist the play like you said, especially being my team.

Reno Gambler · 12-09-11, 12:22 AM

Had to have fish stix and tater tots tonight for dinner

I miss steak and lobster. We do have the weekend

ranman92 · 12-09-11, 01:14 AM

John 1-1 following u and I hated both picks. Im a brownsfan and my thought was they def would score 14 or under, but I actually put 150 on browns and 100 on over so im up 40 and plan on following u all weekend cuz u r good, so gl the rest if the weekend!!!!

It's funny how you say this AFTER the game. Had you said this before the game started, you'd have some credibility. What a joke. There are no shortage of people like you on SBR.
