Bucs +1 on Sunday.

[lakerboy]

Line says it all. Steelers have had a lot of bounces in weeks 1 and 2 and have played some solid defense. They have only allowed 1 td this year so far in 2 games. Dixon is out and the steelers are just gonna try and hold on to there 2 wins and hope Big Ben is back and the team is 3-1 at least. The bucs have looked good so far against mediocre opposition and the steeler defense presents serious problems. The big factor here is that the steelers will be overlooking the bucs and expecting an easy win but will be in for a rude awakening.

Bucs +1 and ML.

I like the play LB..I have a question for you, I guess it pertains to each sports, but especially for the NFL..When you look at team totals, spreads, and totals..what exactly are you looking for? ( i guess im really wondering for team totals) Like is there sometimes a correlation between teh team totals and the spread n total that should give you a hint, or is it still just based offf of all the early and late movement that each of them get? That's prolly very confusing, but tried to put it as simple as I could

I like the pick LB, I gotta say I've been playing these types of lines and games thus far and its been going well this season... ill admit it's a little tough betting against the pitt D , but they've had 2 games against really physical teams .. the bucs are in line for what the public might see as the shock of the week, ...that is until Monday when the bears beat the Packers lol BOL ..

[Wade Dwayne]

How many times does Freeman go down LB?

[lakerfan420]

I have bucs +2.5? in my book

[Dark Horse]

Steelers have decided to prove themselves while Big Ben is out. They're using it as motivation, and it shows. That is why they won't overlook TB. Look what they did to Vince Young. They practically planted him into the ground, head first, like a tree. These guys are on a mission. They've had their post-Superbowl letdown year. This season they're on again. They're going to stop the run, and confuse Freeman with defensive schemes he's never seen. On the other side of the ball they'll just run it down the Bucs throat. Simple, but effective.

Yes but is their defense going to score. Leftwich hasn't played football since Sept 2nd.

Yes but is their defense going to score. Leftwich hasn't played football since Sept 2nd.

They had a 0.20 passing/rushing ratio in their last game. That's five rushing yards for every passing yard. Leftwich or Batch couldn't lower that number if they tried.

[TheCommish]

Pit D wins this game. All they need leftwich to do is not turn it over.

[mnorrell]

Pitt will play the field position game and win off turnovers. They will confuse Freeman and force him to make mistakes.

[ngates815]

How do you already have 55 bets on 16 games? Do you bet every single side/total, then picked 13 half times to bet?

Pretty Impressive, and to be up 69 units this early on....WOW.

[JNic]

i like this play. freeman is getting better and better

[JGILL50]

I agree line says EVERYTHING you need to know

[Shelton]

keep given the steelers points they will win easy

[frankthetank]

I agree with this thread start but there are many other games with value than this game of backups and 2nd year dignal callers. It will be ugly football for sure.

[jjgold]

Looks like play of the week
No way Batch can win
Under might even be a better play.

[koby25]

Steelers win this game.

[Dank_Fire]

Played em +2 last night...Tampa has been impressive thus far, although Pitt will be a bit more of a challenge, I doubt Pitt will start 4-0 without Big Ben

[jboy4]

Like Tampa Bay as well.

[oiler]

if they win this week they will match there victories from last year

[ebbearsfb1]

lines so low, cause no one knows who pitt is throwing out at qb

[luclongley]

we're talking about freeman's progress vs. the browns and panthers. the pitt D is a totally different animal, something he's never seen before. i think the fact the pitt is favored on the road vs. a 2-0 team without knowing who their qb is, is more of a testament to them. i think vegas is asking people to take TB and watch the steelers D dominate

[HotStreak]

Pitt D is dug in, trying to carry this team until Big Ben gets back. The D is capable of winning this game for them too. Under is looking good in all PIT games during Bens suspension, as they grind.

[GoldenRichards]

Tampa is the way to go on this one

[big0mar]

I would be careful.

This is a Bucs team with a young QB that likes to put the ball in the air. With Polamalu playing so well, I could see a few turnovers.

[dodger33]

Remember Oakland averaged 5 yards per carry against that Titan d. If Pitt can't run the ball they will get shut out

[pavyracer]

Steelers won 2 games as dogs vs better teams than Tampa. No value in beting the +1.

[dolphan34]

The Bucs have played some pretty weak teams this year, while the Steelers have gone against much better. I like the Steelers.

[djpremier36]

Hopefully this line goes to -3 for PIT like the Ravens and Patriots lines did in week 2.

[815Sox]

Pittsburg and Under IMO, but GL

totally agree. steelers or no play

I'm on the steel curtain boys!
