After going up 27-3 heading into halftime, Pittsburgh surrendered 24 unanswered points in the second half, before saving their blushes with a game-winning Shaun Suisham field goal as time expired. Remember though, this was against a Cleveland team that was starting Brian Hoyer and one that was missing Josh Gordon. We’ve said this often, but Steelers-Ravens games are the easiest lines to make in the NFL – the home team, provided the QBs are healthy, is the 3-point favorite. Eight of the last 11 games between these teams have been decided by exactly three points. But, according to Sheridans.power ratings, Baltimore is 2 1/2 point favorite. J.J. Bascus Lake Tahoe Nevada power rating 80% true has Steelers wining by 5 1/2....Well ladies and gentlemen of the jury[RX members]. Baltimore also is dealing with the fallout from the Ray Rice controversy with media and emotion in 3 days will have a negative effect ,not positive.
Ravens rushing attack is still a mess. so factoring in home field, and I give the Ravens the edge here. The Ravens have the better offense and defense, according to some of handicapper's I talked with at Sports Books on strip and downtown Vegas. Its an early-season must-win situation .However, these Sharks and Sharpies betting that number gets higher on spread so they can take the points with the Steelers .Bernard Pierce (six carries, 14 yards) wasn’t very good in Sunday’s 23-16 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals (+1 away), and while Justin Forsett (11 carries, 70 yards, one TD) nearly saved the day for Baltimore, he’s a career third-stringer on his fourth NFL team in four years. Forsett isn’t likely to keep reproducing Sunday’s results. Although it would be a tremendous story if he does. You can get +3 around town with the Steelers as of Wednesday, however this line will move up around game time to maybe +3 1/2 or +4 will not go down, So I am going with the Steelers and + points against Ravens at home around game time..
