cinci has a couple offensive line injuries. fitzgerald on the road against a steelers team that wont let him stay on his feet, not to mention they are pissed off about the bad call. the refs might let a few calls go their way. but they wont need that. steelers are a dominant team at home and will cover this spread easily.
Not sure about this one sumday, Pitt actually is not that good at home @ 1-4 ats failing to cover a 3, 3.5, 4 and 5. Cincy isn't in that bad of shape 2-3 on the road so far and the two covers were against dd lines, the only two they faced this year.
This is still a div game between familiar teams and no matter what the standings there will always be a rivalry in this match up. Pitt kicked em back in week 7 by 28 so you can add in a little revenge and lets not forget dd road dogs are a stout 14-2 ats. Pitt has nothing to pissed about on that call nothing changed for them either way so what's the difference, they don't play to cover the spread.
I don't know if I'll bet this game but I thought I would throw a little info out there. gl with Pitt regardless

all good points. i cant change my play, it's the same for when i used to write exams, i never go back and change an answer on a multiple choice. i realize 10.5 is a lot to cover for pittsburgh who has been struggling on offense. i have to stick with the play as i feel they will indeed cover.
10.5 IS a lot, especially with this colder weather and low scoring affair predicted. i already locked it in so see how it goes. it's 50/50 right? either they will win by 11 or not. i believe they will. dd underdogs have been doing very well, i just think this is a bad spot for cinci. in any case, cant wait till game time
You think Vegas doesn't know about that, even Ocho suspended for tonight game too:think2:
What the most safe bets people are going to play tonight?
-11 ? too much
+11 ? too scared
Under or Over ? unpredicted
Ml on Cinn ? nah
Two option left people like are: ML on Pitts (look like sure win) and teaser on Pitts. Vegas is going to route for Cinn upset tonight to clean the table.
Watch out if you believe in conspiracy
Fitzgerald=Fitzpatrick?
Good luck with your play, but with all do respect, you have the Bengals quarterback's name wrong. You talk about a motivation factor that had nothing to do with the team's last game. And last you talk of the Steelers being dominate at home. They are 3-2 at home and 1-4 against the number. They are only +14 in scoring at home in those 5 games. Take out the week 1 win against Houston and the Steelers are being outscored at home. I am not saying the Bengals are going to cover, but I wouldn't say Pittsburgh will cover this easy.
Either way, good luck.
I think the Refs have already caused enough damage with their crappy calls and I think they're being bribed or something.
Because of that, I think you might see some changes in calls for the rest of the season... I mean a lot of people are catching on now.
So, Steelers by at least 14 imo but they could destroy the Bengals with some points coming from INTs and fumbles returned for large gains or TD's. The Bengals will be on their side of the field for most of the game... Fitzpatrick will be running from a pack of hungry wolves, he's going to get demolished. Steelers are so damn tough... me thinks Fitzpatrick is already pissing himself.
-Fitzpatrick will not have Chad Johnson
-Fitzpatrick will not have protection on his blind side
-Benson and Perry won't be able to run on the Steelers
Time for the Steelers to get back to running and Willie Parker dominates the Bengals, averaging over 110 yards a game against them in their past 6 meetings.
Remember in week 7 when Hines Ward broke Keith Rivers' jaw? I can see the revenge factor, as some of the Bengals players even said they would get revenge, but the Steelers will only welcome this. I think it might motivate them more.
One thing I've been wondering about: both teams played on Sunday and they're now playing on Thursday. Which team do you think can handle these conditions better? Steelers were at home against SD and they will be at home again so they do have that advantage it would seem. Also, I can't see Marvin Lewis and his coaching staff preparing his team for the game better than Mike Tomlin and his staff. Dick LeBeau did coach the Bengals. I heard there might be Flurries in Pittsburgh tonight.

yes, fitzpatrick. i wasn thinking about something else when i typed this. on top of that, i never take the time to read posts i just skim through, and when typing posts is just type quickly and never pay much attention. im on the go a lot. so i come across as incoherent and silly at times with my posts and grammer..but im not a dumbass i swear, haha. i am just a busy guy who likes to post a lot when i should be doing something else
