Trend to remember on Pittsburgh in week 1

[Brock Landers]

The last 11 Super Bowl losers have gone 0-11 ATS and 2-9 SU in Week 1 openers the following season. You have to go back to the 1999 Falcons to find a runner-up that won and covered. Pittsburgh opens the season as a 3-point underdog at Baltimore

[EDDIE MONEY LINE]

Brilliant Brock. U got it all figured out my friend

[MartinBlank]

That isn't a trend. It is a coin flip.

The variables involved in NFL roster turnover, coaching turnover, scheduling, location-----make that observation nothing but a random coincidence.

if its so random why have the last 11 losers not covered??

[crustyme]

just like clueless broke to put all his eggs in an irrelevant stat.

these are way more relevent anyways:

steelers have won 8 consecutive season openers.

steelers are 5-2 vs ravens since 2008. both losses were by mere 3pts.

there's only ONE SB loser every year, and its stacked against them from the start pal

U cant make this sh1t up. Only at SBR can a guy who cant pick a winner to save his and his whole families life come on here schooling us on NFL trends to keep in mind. Thats why i love this place. Comedic gold.

[kmarinouofm]

go all in landers.. it can't loose..

[ebbearsfb1]

Brock please tell me your on the ravens... I'm a steeler fan u better not pick them once all year... your the biggest mush here.

[Deuce]

Pitt it is. Thanks Brock

[MartinBlank]

Seriously?

Okay, so you went back 11 years....now go back 30 and tell me the numbers?

You really think a statistic with a sample size of 11-----is significant?

By all means, push all-in on it. It can't lose, you're on it, right?

[crustyme]

there's only ONE SB loser every year, and its stacked against them from the start pal

so you think such sb duds as the panthers, titans, and cards are more relevant to the steelers than their own teams with basically the same personnel?

yeah, whatever, pal.

[The Bet Master]

How about the one 12 years ago?

Trends-the last refuge of the true degenerate

Trends-the last refuge of the true degenerate

Degens love themselves trends. They treat them like they are laws of nature.

Ya know..."Teams with a starting QB with a q in their last name are 31-2 in the second week of the season in odd years with months that have more than 13.4 inches of rain in the east coast....that bitch is lock!!"

facts are facts men, not making this shit up

I love trends....they mean so much right?

Take the MLB All-Star game.

From 1972-1982, the National League won every single year----based on Brock's logic-------1983 was a no-brainer---the National League was a lock to win.

Yeah, 'bout that. American League won in 1983.

Now, I would love to see Brock explain to us how/why a sample size of 11 is significant.

Still waiting for that one.

[RubberKettle]

Games a tossup. Always real close when these two play, probably decided by an QB error or big PI penalty call. There are better spots to pick than this game.

[rm18]

Does seem like a let down scenario but also maybe factored into the line here because Pitt is a better team than Baltimore.

[Vesuvius]

if its so random why have the last 11 losers not covered??

I bet red hit 11 times in a row before

You should go play in traffic and take your son with you so neither of you can reproduce.

WTF is your problem? All he did was post a legit trend. When was the last time you posted a legit trend that had useful information. Bet the Steelers than for all he cares. So many people on this site are just here to stir shit up.

[brucesmall]

How about the other 34 years of sb runner ups?

Not only that but streaks are meant to be snapped just like this year in nba for me. I stuck to trends in the beginning and i got smacked like an abused child that refused to eat his collard greens. Now that I got that off my chest. The game is a toss up really it is.

Flacco equals interceptions and Ben is a rapist so we have to wait for this to be decided.

For you landers I hope you do not go hog wild make this play large. Just make it a play.

Funniest shit I've seen on SBR.

[Cap dat 4ss]

Brock I really hope you don't use that trend to guide your pick. It is not a stat that predicts the probability of future events and therefore has no effect on this years opener. The Ravens may be the play but it would have nothing to do with that trend.

So what would it have to do with?

It is NOT a trend. It is a coincidence. That is my point. A sample size of 11 is not exactly a trend-----why stop at 11? Why not go back to Super Bowl 3 and give us 40+ years of sampling?

There is absolutely no predictive value in Brock's trend. None. It is a quirk, a silly coincidence, and he is considering risky his money on some goofy coincidence?

NFL rosters, scheduling, coaching changes all are variables that are not consistent throughout those 11 years that Brock is using in his "trend".

Let me explain it this way.

Suppose you flip a coin and it comes up heads 11 consecutive times-----what do you think the odds are it comes up heads the 12th time? I'll give you a hint. It isn't 100%.

[cockblocker]

So the Steelers are overdue to cover is all your saying.

[ACoochy]

Brocks Karma has the power to change history...Wouldnt doubt if they cover now at all

[BookiesBernanke]

Good info Brock. Unfortunately, I think the best trend available right now is just to fade your pick

[Brock Landers]

14-0 Ravens

[moses millsap]

ravens and bucs winners, b/c brandon lang had steelers 40 dimes and lions 20 dimes, haha

[Sunde91]
