Bengals vs. Steelers - well I won't be taking this game, but I had a strong lean on the over 34 until I realized the weather for tonight. Much like this past Sunday the weather will be in the low 20's and snowy throughout the game. I had predicted a score of Steelers 24+ to Bengals 13, which obviously would've fallen in the over category. I'm also predicting a breakout game for San Antonio (Holmes), he has really been struggling this season but from watching the games I see the opposing secondary is taking away the deep ball. No Ocho Cinco tonight means TJ Whosyourmomma should get 10+ receptions and Chris Please Arrest Me Henry will get into the mix as well.

double digit dogs are 15-1 this season. i don't know how you can go against that stat. i'd consider taking the lions vs. the titans if they were getting 10 points. ride that trend til it proves you wrong. if it happens tonight, so be it. it made me a ton of money already.
the bengals as double digit dogs are 2-0 this season.
the steelers have not covered in their last 4 home games and are just 1-5 ATS at home this season.
the road team is 7-1 ATS in this series.
i'm really not expecting the weather to be too much of a factor.
this is a rivalry game (that is growing) and anything can happen. i'm not expecting the bengals to win, but i am expecting them to keep it close.
i'd also recomend that you keep it in perspective. how many of us would be wagering on this game with an 11 point spread on an ordinary sunday? don't go crazy tonight. we're all degenrates who need the action, but if i do play the bengals or the over, it will be small.

Why do you think the road team is 7 - 2...because Pittsburgh has been the road team 3 of the last 4.
Bengals are 0-4 ATS in their last 4 meetings. Meaning PITT is 4-0 SU and 4-0 ATS. Three of those games PITT had to play on the road, not CINCI.
The games Cinci covered the scored over 28 points and had Carson Palmer at QB, a Pro-Bowl receiver in Chad Johnson and TJ H...., and a very good RB in Rudi Johnson. Things are a little different on the offensive side of ball. Especially with injuries on the O-line.
Very different circumstances tonight...One reason you can't always look at past games.

I am hoping that the steelers can rack up the points in the first half...55% of snow after 10 pm....it should make for an interesting over/under at halftime if that's the case of snow intensity picking up!!

Taking Pitt at home, short week, Cincy sucks, biggest threat not playing, 2 O linemen out. Not touching the over/under. Pitt could win 35-10 or 24-3. GL to all....
Also like BD's 1st half play...

Well noted, still.....I'm rollin with Cincy for a backdoor cover.

My lean is on Pittsburgh and the under. Keep in mind that the Steelers had a home game just 4 days ago and the field looked like shit then. The turf at Heinz field is notorious for being sloppy and with two games this close and wet (snowy) weather it will be a mess by halftime. Add to that the cold weather, frozen turf, Bengals offensive line missing two starters, Pittsburgh offense struggling, Bengals offense flat out sucks, etc. and the under seems like a solid play even at 35. The side has me a little more worried though. I really don't see the Bengals scoring more than 10 and more likely 6, but how many points will Pittsburgh score? I'm thinking 17-20 or so.

Weather will hit during game time. Just snow flurries right now. The snow is coming from the Northwest of PA. But more rain is coming up from the South-West that will hit Pittsburgh during game time..that is why they are saying his weather will last till Friday.. I believe This is the first time PA is getting hit with snow and this kind of cold air.
How will the players adjust ?

Taking Bengals +11.5 To Cover the spread.. the weather will keep this game close i hope. Rain coming from SW and SNOW coming from NW. This will be a sloppy game. esp when the weather gets to pitts stadium.. we all know how that stadium can get when the weather is bad. Not touching over/under cause you know how sloppy weather can turn into easy points. But it can also provide a low-scoring game.

I'm on the double digit dog and the over......I'm treating Thursday like Monday night tonight. Steelers secondary is thin......Bengals will score 13-20........and that will push it over and keep it within the chalk.

Irish :: I tend to agree with you most of the time but no way in hell does Cinci score 20 tonight...If they score 20 then they may win outright if PITT is playing that poorly on DEF.

No Chad Johnson so Pitt will be all over T.J Housh whatever his name his. Cinci has no running game so that won't be a factor. Hard to see how Cinci scores at all. Easy play on the Steelers -11 and I think they will cover the over by themselves. Pitt 38 Cin 6

HE MAKES NO DIFFERENCE AT THIS POINT IN THIS GAME ON THIS FIELD.....IF HE HAD 2 CATCHES IT WOULD BE A LOT...CHRIS HENRY IS BETTER THAN HIM AS A NUMBER 2 RECIEVER...
Really? Chad Johnson makes no difference if he is or is not playing in this game? Chris Henry is better than him as a number 2?
Get serious man, Chad Johnson is an all-pro, pro bowl and top 10-15 wide receiver in the league. TJ may be having a better year but Chad is the better receiver. I think he's an idiot, but he's better. What I was saying is that it matters if he's playing because this allows Ike Taylor to shadow TJ all game now instead of Chad. Two of the Steelers top 3 cornerbacks are out this week. If TJ was going up against William Gay that would be a huge mismatch. Now Ike can be lined up against TJ and Gay can line up against Chris Henry, who seems to be suspended for at least 4 games every year. Chad's an idiot, but Chris Henry is a bigger idiot.
Just a couple of stats on Chad Johnson from the 2007 season: His yardage was third most in the NFL, his receptions were 12th most, and his touchdowns were tied for 15th most in the league. His 1,440 yards set a new Bengals franchise record, breaking his own record of 1,432 in 2005.

i think pitt gets out to a quick start in this one. With a amped up steelers crowd, this game could get out of hand early. From the looks of it, the weather may be a factor as early as the second quarter. At that point im willing to bet the game will largely sway into the steelers favor, sparking that ground and pound game that the teams in the afc north know all too well. That being said, i think the best play in my situation would be, 1H PITT -7, Cinci just isnt good enough to compete with this potenially playoff bound squad. GL to ALL
Thats not a bad idea fpronk...
