Pittsburgh/Baltimore line move

**WvGambler** · 01-11-11, 10:19 PM

Steelers -3.5 (-115)

**C-Gold** · 01-11-11, 10:26 PM

It will end Steelers -3.5. People assume it will be a "FG game", but the Steelers will also have a slight bias... Home team, time off, and the Steelers are a public team. The .5 will really make people think. It's psychology bi-atch.

Agreed...Perception; psychology, a single unified awareness derived from sensory processes while a stimulus is present.

if it hits 4 I'm definitely playing baltimore. Baltimore had the second game in the bag and lost. Remember they controlled the whole game till that fumble.

I never got that, why would you want to play bal if it hits 4?

So you are going to go against RLM on a public road dog in the playoffs. That's a winning play in the long run.

But at least you got the best number.

**slatter** · 01-12-11, 08:27 AM

-3.5 is just enough to make me not want to touch this game. Damnit.

**Mr Handicapable** · 01-12-11, 10:42 AM

Baltimore +158....seems like a great value but is it just my hate of Pittsburgh? Now Rapelesberger is working the old L&S (Lord-n-Savior) into every sentence when they stick a mike in his face! Unfortunately for Ben...GOD told me that Bolden was a nice pickup & will make the difference in this upset!!

This is the right play... the only play imo

I remember, but Pitt OL is playing better now and after the Patriots game Pitt made some changes to its defense and played even better in the last 7 games especially their pass defense

**WvGambler** · 01-12-11, 10:57 AM

I hate the Steelers more than the average man, but Big Rape has absolutely owned the Ravens. I would be surprised as hell if the Ravens win straight up....but we still have a few days to think I guess.

**sharper2** · 01-12-11, 11:09 AM

ed reeds status should play a big role in any line movement..what's the latest word?

**PDW** · 01-12-11, 11:28 AM

I think it will close at -3, I like Baltimore here.

After spending a few days in Louisiana with his family in the wake of his brother’s disappearance, Ravens S Ed Reed returned to Baltimore today, and his teammates were delighted to see him.

Said RB Willis McGahee, via the National Football Post: “As a team, we've got his back. As a friend, I've got his back."

Reed and his family have been going through a tough time.

His 29-year-old brother, Brian Reed, jumped into the Mississippi River last week to elude the police, who were chasing him because they suspected he had stolen a car. Reed still is missing.

is ed reed worth a half point either way..just askin

**Scorpion** · 01-12-11, 01:19 PM

Harbaugh 'glad' Ravens broke Big Ben's nose

**k13** · 01-12-11, 01:43 PM

Ravens are a team that talks a lot, acts all tough, think they are badasses and then go out and lose in the playoffs.

Can't even beat a choke artist like manning.

**borednaz** · 01-12-11, 01:54 PM

Always a field goal game, so I'll just take the team that has the QB who actually has super bowl experience. Flacco always gets them to the post season, but always loses when it counts. Big Rape has rings.

Agree. I would take Ben in a big over Flacco anyday in a big game. I the Steelers don't give it away 5 times like the Chiefs did Sunday, they win easily.

**jkilla990** · 01-12-11, 02:14 PM

You guys are over thinking this, both teams have good defenses, even though I think the Pitt defense is better especially with a healthy Polamalu back and a better pass rush. Pitt has a better QB who can actually deliver int he clutch unlike that dumbass Flacco, and in terms of offense Pitt has more weapons and a QB who can hit them. I'll take Pitt and buy down half a point.

**alka07** · 01-12-11, 02:18 PM

this one will be close i am thinking baltimore moneyline

**csm506** · 01-12-11, 02:23 PM

Steelers -3 +100
Baltimore +3 -125

**csm506** · 01-12-11, 02:23 PM

Run with the Baltimore ML at +140 can't miss you will remember I said this

**brooks85** · 01-12-11, 02:25 PM

im loving the % right now for bal ats and ml, I plan on taking pit come saturday.

**scarp** · 01-12-11, 02:32 PM

liking steelers with bye

Honestly? IMO, yes, and probably more. He led the NFL in INTs, despite only playing in 10 games. He is a game changer and a ball hawk. He is almost as valuable to the Ravens as Troy is to the Steelers. Key there is almost, but he and RayRay are the keys to that defense, especially in the playoffs, where their experience helps a lot

**k13** · 01-12-11, 02:52 PM

The line is going the other way. Pinny had +3.5 -109

**jetsjets1028** · 01-12-11, 02:56 PM

baltimore will win most likely

**arkie boy** · 01-12-11, 03:12 PM

I got pitt at two and on half. line will mve too four,Every ones on pitt

**Mr Handicapable** · 01-12-11, 03:40 PM

If Sanchez can win in Pittsburgh...then Flacco can win there too! Steelers only 5-3 at home this year! Baltimore's kicker is having an All-Pro season while Pitt's is a Redskin reject! If it wasn't for the dumba$$ coach...Venateri could've been the difference over the Jets kicker in the Colts/Jets game? Kickers/special teams are pretty damn important in close games....Pitt lost that Jets game mostly due to a opening KO return TD!
