    They were also favorites to beat the Jets and the Bucs, I wouldn't touch it you don't know which Steelers team is going to show up.

    Another yes.

    They have enough talent. They lack in leadership. Loosing to the Jets should cause each one to have their own internal leadership. Then they will have 2 weeks to screw up and loose to the Saints. Which will wake them back up for the Bengals.

    After we lost to the Bucs, I figured we'd be pissed off and would stomp the Jaguars, but we struggled with them too. Then the very next week we got smashed by the Browns. This team doesn't seem to be able to bounce back with any type of fire.

    Cover? I'll take a 1 point win. I wouldn't touch this team one way or the other where betting is concerned.

    Come on darcrav. I've got exactly 1,000 reasons I want the Steelers to win and am only giving 5 points to the Titans. Get on board and lets get some mojo working for this game.

    Well, I don't know. If you were to play the odd's wouldn't they say that the steelers will lose?

    Not sure I understand the question. For me to win the bet the Steelers need to beat the Titans by more than 5 points. If they don't beat them by more than 5 points I lose the $1,000.00.

    To me it's not that big of a thing. Most people have some disposable income and use it on vacations, travel, sports (golf, fishing, hunting, boating, etc,). I don't do any of those things so I use my disposable income betting on pro football and a little on the ponies. If I wasn't a good bit ahead of the house I would be less aggressive on my bets, but since it's their money I can push it a bit. I always remember what someone told me a long time ago " don't bet anything you can't afford to lose ".

    It's a Monday night game, all the other intangibles about losing to the Bucs and having a poor showing the next week against the Jags are overshadowed by the fact that its Monday Night and whileit might not be a home game this team always comes to play on Monday night.

    I can see us winning this game by 7 BUT I did lose big bucks on the Bucs game too.

    Yeah, we'll cover, no problem. The Titans have nothing that give us fits, namely a strong DL. Our OL can patty-cake their way around their DL, giving Ben time to do his thing, and Silverback is matched up against Taylor Lewan, a promising rookie LT, but still a rookie.

    They may frustrate with a big play or two out of Justin Hunter and their TE, but our defense should be able to bend at the seams without breaking.

    It being a sucker bet is your opinion and by the way your wrong in my opinion. If your scared to bet it your better off just not touching this one. By the way on Monday night we will see who is right and who is wrong about this one.

    Do you spread out your bets, or is this the only bet you're making?

    This is the only football bet this week. I do have smaller bets on a couple of horses running in California. But this is the only football bet this week. Good luck on your bets this week,
