NFL Week 1 Sharpest Play on the board =Browns +6.5

[Big Bear]

First off this line is set at 6.5 begging for Steeler action.

If Steelers were the play they would be -7.5

Now for the real reasons to take the Browns... Hoyer is tired of hearing the johnny foosball hype and will be the most motivated guy on the playing field. He did quite well last season before being injured.

Josh Gordon gone??? who cares ? he is a worthless thug.

Who will win the battle of the trenches? Thats easy , Browns all the way. They have much better offensive and Defensive lines than the Steelers have.

Now for secondary... The Steelers no longer have enforcer Ryan Clark to lay the smack down in the secondary and the Browns have 2 of the best CB's in the whole league.

Steelers winning won't surprise me at all but i seriously doubt they cover the 6.5

Big Ben will get sacked 4 + times and Browns will be the more physical team.

only way Steelers cover is if the Browns have some stupid turnovers.

Browns do all the little things well. The only thing they are missing is an elite QB and elite WR's but they will have a very good record ATS.

[STAX]

agree on the pick but disagree with some of your reasons.... sucks I loaded up too early when they were +5.5

[frogsrangers]

Love this play

It might be a wee bit premature to crown Justin Gilbert as "one of the best CB's in the whole league." Maybe you should wait until he's had one meaningful snap in the NFL before slathering on the hyperbole.

The u41 was a better play in my mind, good luck with you pick!

[k13]

This line was like -4.5 if lower earlier...
Lone move says steelers are the sharp side.

Cleveland needed their preseason win tonite over the Bears. Manziel didn't give up after a difficult transition period into pros. Tonite he showed he had class.

[STAX]

Manziel still hasnt turned it over yet as a pro, that has to be encouraging... so much of being a good QB is knowing when you have to win the game and knowing when you have to just not penetrate it up

[Hot Jerry]

No can do this game , they both stink - lol !! WNT - for me !!

[keel44]

Any love for Dallas in week 1?

[Timmay]

I guessed the line at 7, but it's under that... Tough spot. I'm guessing there will be a lot of public money on Pitt.
I'm not sure though.

[STAX]

Both teams looked bad in preseason... Pittsburgh not used to being shitty, Cleveland is, so Browns is the play here

- no love in here !!

+6.5 is usually a good bet in the nfl, especially since you can usually get 7 on bovada

Any love for Dallas in week 1?

hmm i did put them in this parlay
Redskins ML over Texans
Dolphins +4.5 vs Patriots
Panthers -1 over Buccaneers
Cowboys +5.5 vs 49ers
Arizona ML over Chargers

the thing about Dallas in week 1 is it is a prime time 4pm national tv game and the public will undoubtedly be on the road fave 49ers...which i do like bc i have a suspicion about prime time marquee games being fixed.

But looking at X's and O's the 49ers should dominate the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball which is bad for Cowboy bettors..

BUT the Cowboys do have a high powered offense and the 49ers weakness is the secondary which i think Romo can torch with Witten and Dez Bryant and maybe Terrance Williams.

I think Kaepernick is a bit overrated but this Dallas defense is pretty bad and the Cowboys actually don't have an intimidating home field advantage like say the Packers or Seahawks or Saints...

If the Cowboys are going to make the playoffs which i'm not sold on.
this has to be a game they atleast cover, if the Cowboys get beat bad here on their home field i think its going to be a long season for them.

[keel44]

It just appears to me that SF is totally out of synch, at least the starters in the preseason.

Interesting... I see what you did there.

[Cuse0323]

Someone wins by a FG in an ugly game, might have a winner here.

Yea, but you gotta lay the heavy lumber.


I think I might take CLE ML
Gamble gamble gamble.

not a bad bet. If the Browns had a legit passing game they would be a very good team. But they are still competitive and will give their division rival all they want and then some.

[Chipup]

The under is definitely the play. The browns and the Steelers typically go under even when they do have decent offences which is not the case this season. I see a Steelers 17 Browns 6 type of game.

Actually at first I instantly thought Pitt if it's under 7, but then thinking into all the news about Gordon and everything.....

Made me think a lot of action will be on Pitt. I guess it's not the best way of looking at things.

I just don't like to follow a lot of the public at times.
