taking the over 41.5                          if I had to pick a team.....taking Pitt to cover. 

early lean CIN +4.5. Third consecutive road game for PIT which is tough for any team to overcome, even against crappy teams. Plus it's monday night and a division game which is always tough anyway.

I AGREE WITH YOUR THINKING BUT THAT'S WHY I'M GOING THE OTHER WAY HERE. THE BUNGIRLS ARE AWEFUL AND THE STEELERS KNOW THIS GAME IS JUST TOO IMPORTANT TO LET IT SLIP AWAY. I'M BACKING THE STEELERS TO GET BACK ON TRACK AND BURY THIS CINCY SEASON FOR GOOD.

Pittsburgh-4.5 pts.

Sorry bout those caps and bold type. I hate when that happens. After all, I'm not seeking attention with it, right?

Bengals are terrible. Defensively giving up 23 points a game, almost 5 yards a carry, etc. Steelers will consistently move the ball down the field all game. Despite a rough performance against the Saints, they still have a very solid offense, easily capable of scoring against the Bengals. Three in a row on the road for Steelers, but they'll look for a strong rebound here in a divisional matchup.

  SEE YA BUNGLES!! A  MUST WIN & COVER FOR:

PITTSBURGH  -  5

This is gonna get ugly.....Steelers -4.5  

Pittsburgh Steelers -4.5

Pitt to strong here, they will win and cover 5, Balt will falter and Pitt will gain the #1 place. Ben will throw all over Cinn defense. Plain and simple Pitt 34-17. There will be no lucky catch by by TO this week to make this close. They should have never even been in last weeks game.Pitt 24 -10

Divisional game, backdoor cover? Tomlin plays close to the vest. No side here, look to the under if anything.

BENGALS wins this straight up.

Pitt team total over..........

Have to wonder if the Bengals follow Cleveland's lead and try to play the spoiler role. Otherwise there is zero need to suit up. Teasing this as usual. Had Packers and under which just barely cashed tonight. Leaning Pitt and over....not sure.

Sttelers too good  even without ben  monday night tradition is a steelers win  but the over looks good too

 

 

 

 

 

I'm RED HOT......i'm 8-3 if u look at my picks that i made for week 9 in the NFL.   u might wanna take a 2nd look at the OVER.   a div game like this is too hard to call for either team. 

Pittsburgh - 21                                  Cincinnati - 17

Bengals +5.5                                under 41.5

Pitt wins - Cincy covers.

Pitt as a road fav of 3 or more has me fading them. I think they do enough to win the game but asking them to cover 5.5 could be a bit too much for the Black & Gold. I'll take the home dog in an improtant divisional contest.

Bengals - Under

Nevermind, I like

STEELERS -6

I love Cincy in this spot.  Line opened at 3.5 and now at 6.  Too easy to take Pitt here, under a TD.  I just don't believe Vegas was that off in setting this line.  MNF gets alot of action and it is way to one sided right now.

Hey Vue, I saw that you were wondering if betting on line movements actually worked for me, and I think it has.  I have never been up this much, this late in the year.  Obviously my brain still gets in the way sometimes and I make my own plays, but overall betting based on line movement is hitting probably around 65%.  Probably higher if just CFB.  Not great, but better than when i used to pick my games based on players, weather, matchups, and analysis.  The key is staying deciplined with my increments.  Hope this has shed some light.  GL

Cincy at the bottom of the league ATS. Pittsburgh near top ten. Both score about the same but pitt stronger defensively. I dont think there is any job saving motive for cincy. They just are not good. Dont let big line moves scare you.... just like last nite. Teams like dallas, carolina, and this cincy team have cashed it in for whatever reasons and have no where to go but draft day. Pitt needs a win to keep pace with afc east and balt for a top playoff spot.  Pitt and OV for the large son!

I put a small play on the Cincy ML.  It was the best value for not really caring about this game

I was thinking Cinci -6 but having serious doubts after seeing Jango on them too

*+6

LEAN CINCIN

LIKE THE UNDER

Cincy's ATS & SU record against the AFC NORTH is impossible to ignor....

this is a similiar team who swept the division last year....

Big Ben hasn't looked like his old self.

As bad as the Bengals have been at times this year I'm still rolling with the Home Dog...

 

I'm buying up the line to 7.5 and taking the Bungles in the Jungle...

 

praying for a close game....

 

(by the way, after an amazing season so far I got my ass kicked this week..... you guys might wanna fade me lol)
