on the other side of the ball.... the Steelers found their running game with a shitty o-line but Mendenhall featured as a power-back... Big Ben is having his best season of his career so far and has been torching opposing defenses.... Minnesota's shutdown cornerback is out for the game... oh, and that guy Darren Sharper... yeah he's gone too (Saints) .... look for PITT to air it out often against a team that plays the run very well (except for last week)... Percy Harvin is banged up and questionable... if he doesn't play that is another huge advantage because the Bengals went to their slot receiver often to beat the steelers... he also returns punts and has been giving them great field position this whole year...
this is a dome team on the road playing outside against a team that can match them physically....
do you think Longwell is kicking a 52 yarder in the toughest stadium to kick field goals in?
This game is going to be in the UNDER...
as far as the line movement.... you have to take into consideration the amount of money being put on the Vikings... especially after the line moved to 6.... I cannot believe the line moved this much... this game says trap all over it...... everyone is saying "an undefeated team getting 6 points? I'll take that all day"... that's what vegas wants you to think....
I locked it in at 4 but I am confident they will win by a td... this is my pick of the week.....
and for the people who say "they couldn't hold the cover against Cleveland" well they were giving 14 points.... never lay 14 with a defensive football team.... and I believe Cribbs ran one back.....
Pitt in the Under....
Farve starts turning the ball over often...
the only thing that scares me is that the Steelers havn't been playing well in the 4th quarter, but I bet having Polamolou back changes that this week.....
GOOD LUCK TO ALL
Keep up the good work.
DEFINITELY like the Steelers in this one!!! Minnesota is playing their first game OUTDOORS since week 1 when they played at Cleveland in NICE 75/80 degree temperature, now they have to play outdoors, more than likely in COLD conditions. Brett Favre is a year older than last year. Can his one year older bones take the cold weather in Pittsburgh? Also, Favre is bound to start taking some hard hits back there & I feel that Pittsburgh just might do that to him.
Final score: Pittsburgh 28 Minnesota 17
