Games are all independent of each other and have nothing to do with previous ATS records. A good team doesn't go on a 0-8 ATS streak, but an OVERRATED one does. Vegas definitely isn't doing anything to lines to help them cover (they were -6.5) against the Bonnies today) especially when it seems like people bet on them regardless. I surely won't be betting on Cal State Northridge and Miami OH (or Richmond) waiting for their ATS records to "even out". Good luck though!!!

Also riding on Charlotte tonigh JOSE. Although I am leaning towards Iowa. Have you got to see both teams? Think Dawson is still a little one handed and he is going to need both tonight against Iowa's big guys.

Haha @line_tamer. To straight fix a game you would have to have several people involved before tip off... lot of manipulation throughout. To miss a free throw that may or may not matter in a game that your buddy said he dropped five grand on is something different...

Watched them alot this year... Van Vleet and Ron Baker have to be the two most overrated players in the country... Should rout every bad team they play though. Good luck rest of the way

I don't think any games are "fixed"... but most kids, refs, and coaches on the floor know what the line on their game is, and that alone is scary to think about. And if you are a degenerate and your best friend growing up is a player, coach, or ref... it could slip from time to time who your money is on. So zero games "fixed"... but maybe a few "accidentally manipulated" here and there

Yes Bell is out, but you plug in a capable pass catcher/blocker like Ben Tate into the offense and they aren't going to miss a beat. Ngata coming back isn't going to effect Ben throwing the ball 20 yards down field, and I think the Steelers could run for 50 yards and still dominate this game. No one has complained about Todd Haley in MONTHS and that is downright scary. The Steeler's have it figured out, and the Ravens have been downright inconsistent second half of the season.
STEELERS -3 |

Love what @Goggles-Pisano said above. Think that if GB commits to stacking the box and stopping the run, they will have a good chance at winning this football game. Kap and Rogers are both grown men and will be just fine in the cold weather, I like them both to play well. Just don't think Kap will be able to execute as well as Rogers, who I think is the best pure passer in the league. If GB can get a lead in this game going into the second half, I really like their chances of holding on to win/keep it within 2.5.

The Steelers offense is clicking and I don't see them looking back. Antonio Brown and Big Ben are having pro bowl seasons, and it seems like Haley and Ben are finding a way to coexist. Matt Flynn has now had a few weeks to get on the same page with all those GB receivers, and has looked more than capable to me. Neither of these defenses have done enough to make me trust them. Over despite the weather. Steelers 24, Packers 27

The Steeler's offense has been coming alive lately, mainly because Big Ben has had a greater influence on the play calling. They have been running the no huddle more and with success. I don't hate Joe Flacco, but I do think he is pretty average at best. Still, with Jacoby Jones and Torrey Smith streaking around, he always has a chance for a big play. On the Steeler's side, I like the offense to continue to get better and to push the tempo a little with the no huddle. I think Flacco will luck out once or twice using his "throw it up and hope for the best" routine, pushing this game OVER the total. Also always a high chance for turnovers between these two defenses, which could set up some great field position and easy points. Steelers 26 Ravens 17

Small play on Tulsa no doubt, based on the line alone

Going to take the Lions here. Not too much insight, just letting the line do all the talking. Bucs blowout the Falcons last week, and Lions lose to the Steelers, but that doesn't stop them from opening as almost 10 point favorites. TB's decent play as of late gets some action on them, but the high line is suggesting a blowout.

This rivalry has been a little lopsided the past several years, but I expect it to be fully renewed on Sunday. The Steeler's should be fired up after losing in Cleveland last year, a game that helped keep Pittsburgh out of the playoffs. Cleveland is always fired up to play the Steeler's, because after they have a terrible season, they can always say "at least we beat Pittsburgh". While Big Ben and the offense have been playing very well, the low total and line of Browns -1 are leading me to take the under in this one. These two teams hate each other and I can see the Browns strong front 7 keeping Ben and the running game contained. The only way Cleveland can win this game is with their defense, and based on the 41 total and the fact they're favored, I'm liking the under. Refuse to bet on or against my own team, but I'm thinking Steelers 20 Browns 17

The odds makers are telling you everything that you need to know... an undefeated team opening as a 10 point dog? C'mon Man! If the Chiefs even had one or two loses, this game would be Denver -14. I wouldn't be surprised to see some big money bump this one back up to 8.5 or so by kickoff. Denver 38-20

Give me the Packers for the same reason I liked the Bears last week in GB. Star QB out, but backup not that bad. Tolzien looked okay to me last week, and the Pack are going to devise a game plan where he is only going to have to throw it about 20 times. They are going to do what they can to keep Eli off the field. Eddie Lacy and the defense have looked solid, and I don't expect that to change because the Giants have played better the past three weeks. Give me the better team, getting points. Packers 23-20
