    going for steelers -14 tonight. two teams in very opposite directions pittsburgh going for the division title and browns have little to play for. steelers have won the last 4 meetings of these two teams by an average of 20.7 points so should see the 14 point handicap fairly comfortably

    unbelievable. steelers offense was shocking, 2 fumbles in the red zone and a turnover on downs from the 1 yard line!!! still won by 11 points but could and definitely should of been alot more.

    yeah slip by a defender let them in for the 2nd TD with about 2 mins left. defensively they were great and had roethlisberger not got injured i think theyd of dominated that game. with him standing in the pocket and barely able to move they were fairly hopeless and their 2nd string quarterback doesnt look up to much

    Ah man he was in for two drives I think it was...pinned back for one which he got sacked on! Second string for them is a toss up between Hatch and Leftwich...but don't think it'll matter...I'm sure been will just be resting up till Sunday week!

    Leftwich has been out for the season since September. Charlie Batch or Dennis Dixon would fill in

    Steelers were awful for long periods of the game and should've been 7-0 down too. Browns easily earned their cover

    Steelers to win at 2.45 (moneyline) on Bet365 is too good to turn down tonight.

    Nice call. A lot of pundits were saying the 49ers wouldn't cover the spread.

    Don't know that I've ever seen a qb have as long to throw the ball when Roethlisburger threw that second interception.

    Cheers bud.

    Felt it was going to be an easy win for San Fran especially because of the Ankle injury Ben has.

    Felt more confident when I seen him at pre-match warmup. The guy was looking crushed.

    Was a nice win anyway, looking forward to some bets this weekend.

    Bet of the week IMO is Eagles to Beat Cowboys @ 21/20.

    Serious value there.

    If it doesnt happen then it will be seriously unlucky for them. I really believe they should be able to beat Romo and The Cowboys.

    Dont lump on it, but I have a medium stake on it.

    Will you be waiting to see the outcome of the Giants/Jets game before betting?

    Possibly.

    Im pretty confident on the eagles though to do it regardless.

    Vick played great the other night, as did Romo but Philly have an edge. It will be a huge shock to Romos system to see who hes up against.

    The handicap market doesnt tempt me as the line is 1.5 but I will be definitely be taking the 21/20.

    Philly to win.

    I think you're right about Vick. Reckon once my bets tonight (hopefully!) come in and I have some money I'll follow you :)

    Good luck :) Im waiting on some nice bets to come in tonight too.

    If the Giants win, the NFL will obviously be vouching for a Giants v Cowboys match but tbh I really can see the Eagles doing it.

    Once the defense play a tight game around Romo and Vick is on form. It should be a lock.

    Been looking through some stats all night and I reckon The Falcons are worth a punt at +6.5 also.

    They were on top, Dallas were muck. They led by around 33/4 points at one stage. Ah well.
