Hi!

It is my firm belief the Steelers are riding a bogus high after a VERY fortuitous win AT HOME against the BROWNS playing without CHUBB.... Meanwhile Garoppolo and the Raiders are primed for a bounceback from 2 consecutive road games - the last one an embarrassing rout albeit to a TOP 6 elite team in their park..... I dunno we should put too much into that rout-loss! It's deceiving imo. Raiders have a SOLID QB, and finally at home the Raider D will make likely noise all over the luckyass Steelers...... of course more lucky breaks and Ts can flip a game, but I believe Raiders win -- by 3 or more...... My opinion then is I would rather you got a smaller number because having a bit of a cushion is desirable, but 3 might be ok here...

cool Is that more or less the way you were thinking too?

We all shall remember these key PERFORMANCE stats when assessing next week's matchups when Browns are at home to Titans and the outplayed and VERY LUCKY STEELERS travel to Vegas.....

Oh yes......and one other important point about how incredibly LUCKY the Steelers were to be outplayed badly and still win....All-star RB for Cleveland, Nick Chubb was carted off the field just one minute into the 2ndQ........that early in the game and he had already AMASSED 64 yds rushing on just 10 carries!!! IN ONE QUARTER!!!

Cleveland led 11 - 7 at the time he exited. Obviously THAT hampered the Browns and helped the Steelers. But despite that loss of production the Browns still managed all those stats shown above against the bumbling Steeler D...

Remember, the opening pts of the game - just 10 seconds into the game - was a defensive TD after a DOUBLE-TIPPED fluky bounce ball for a pick 6

i did grab the raiders after watching the game then reading that . thanks peace_5

u got a badbeat with your ravens pick but i think quite fortunate to get the packers win

gl tonite clover raiders roll win

S L O W start tonight.....

Keep in mind for the statsheet that Steelers began with the first drive so if they finish the half in possession that means their stats may be skewed in comparison

an_light Raiders played EVEN with the Broncos in Denver, but got steamrolled by an elite angry BILLS team coming off a horrible performance.Both those games were on the road but Sunday Night primetime they get the spotlight at home against the very lucky Steelers. Steelers had the luxury of playing 2 consecutive HOME games. They got steamrolled by an elite team, the Niners....then we all witnessed their performance on Monday night - being badly outplayed but getting incredibly lucky..... When they meet Sunday night in primetime, the Raiders will have their #2 WR back in the lineup!! And like any decent QB, I fully expect Garroppolo to bounce back with a SOLID outing! When my books put the lines up I will be all over duuhh Raaaayyyduuuhhhs for a *BEST BET

For a moment it looked like the very lucky Steelers woulg gain the first big lucky break on a fumble.

Nope. Instead both teams EARNED their 7 points.

WOW! FIRST BIG LUCKY BREAK goes to Pittsburgh as DB Marcus Peters drops a wide open guaranteed pick 6.

SECOND significant break also goes to the very lucky Steelers with an INT at their own 30 to snuff a scoring drive...

So that plus the dropped pick 6 by Peters.

Steelers should be down 7 pts right now....instead, as luck often has it, most likely now the lucky Steelers will march downfield and score

Two more losing bets. Turns an 8 - 5 week into a small loss overall with juice.
