To me, it comes down to who is hungrier 

Last year is last year. Who cares

And as far as class, class does not catch TD or break off a 25 yard run on 3rd down. Besides that, no one exuded more class than the late -great Steve Mcnair-  

I am sure the players are going to be thinking about him and they could come out motivated to win this one. They can beat them 

 Fisher is as classy as they get -so the titans have class. 
One player stepping on a towel does not qualify the whole team  as classless.Its all in good sportsmanship.

 Tenn has a tough challenge and the schedule makers did them no favors giving them the Steelers at home for a Prime Time Night Game where the Steelers excel unlike no other.

The Titans have the better coach in my view, a better offense based on last year and a great running attack that can really put the hammer on people. Tenn has a great Defense but obviously not as good as Pitt. 

Conclusion - Tennessee covers the 6

GL fellas 


I'll have to disagree with you on this one. Mike Tomlin has been in the league for about 2-3 years and has already brought home a Lombardi Trophy. When was the last time Fisher's team won a Super Bowl? So, I'm sure a lot of people will agree with my on this one, Mike Tomlin is a better coach.

IMO Tommlin hasn't really been tested.  He inherited a great football team.  It's what he does when the chips are down that will show his worth as a coach to me.  Meanwhile Jeff in Ten. is the longest tenured NFL head coach.  I think there is a reason for this.  Just my $.02 on the subject,

Huge Steeler fan, which is why I usually stay away from their games. However, an overrated TN team coming into Pitt., primetime game.  Crowd will be nuts and will be a factor!!  Pitt. 1st half -3.5 large play. If line stays below 7 take Pitt for the game as well.

Heinz Stadium is gonna feel like a Playoff Atmosphere, it's gonna be crazy.
If anything the Titans are underrated every year. Every season, people think the Titans will turn out to be a sub-par .500 team and every year they prove 'em wrong. Not takin' anything from the Steelers but it will be a close match. Titans will either cover or lose by exactly six.

UofL I'm not arguing with your pick, but what basis do you have for calling the Titans overrated.  They won 13 games last year, and have improved by leaps and bounds on offense.

Defensively they return 10 only losing Haynesworth who was hardly ever in the game with all his injuries.

Look out for Tenn defensive line to cause problems on a weaker PITT off line. 


games are won on the battle up front.  not the hype of a team from last year

Titans own the line scrimmage.  I just hope it will translates into a straight up win.  The Steelers O-Line is not very strong.  The Titans are pounding them right at the center Hartwig.

alrite alrite 10-10 with less then three to go.
 
i for one cannot understand, why somone would lay 220 on the game just to win a single bet. its alrite if you parlay it.
 
logic if u lose a -250 u are down 2.5 bets.  (2.5u to win 1u.)
 
but a parlay of a -250 and a -150 is about 1 to win 1u.
 
if you bet large favs ml to me u have no choice really, in most cases but unite them with another team.
 
or in the alternative if the dog is decent, take them on the spread , and juice it a bit buying a insurance point or two.  its still cheaper then the heavy favorite ml.
 
these two alternatives seem wiser then a single straight large ml bet. in most circumstances.

 10-10 OT one does wonder if the vegas books knew the pitt line would push out to -6.5, from -5. that trappy 5, for sure will be moving. ending up on a # pitt bakkers cannot win. but still less then 7.

i know i watched this line from the start, and it gained momentum about a week out.

this one tastes good for sure. trap avoided.

Like I said....+6 was like Gold!!  Even went to 6.5 or 7 in some cases!!  Should of emptied the 401 K on this one!!  How can you give this team more than 3 and a half??  How many games have Tenn lost by 4 or more in recent history??  Great opener!! Predictable how I like em!!  Welcome back NFL!!!
