Lets get this party started.....
Pittsburgh Steelers @ Denver Broncos -3 (41)
Cower makes this Title Game #6. He is 1-4 SU & 0-5 ATS. To top it off those 5 were played in the comfort of Heinz Field!!!
On the plus side the Steelers have won their last 4 Road Games by an average score of 28-10 & Big Ben has 12 TDs & only 4 INTS in his 8 road starts, clicking at 65%. Pittsburgh has run for 166 ypg clip in their last 4 contests.
Denver is a perfect 9-0 SU in the confines of Invesco Field & have held their last 5 foes to just 10 ppg.
Like the Steelers they like to do it overland (#2 in the NFL) & have a remarkable 2,472-1,215 RY Edge. Yup that's 2 to 1.
Plummer has thrown for more than 3,350 yds with only 8 picks.
Turnovers are the key for the Broncos as they have forced 41 including 5 vs. the Pats LW.
Offensively that game wasn't pretty for Denver as 3 TDs came on drives of 1, 1 & 15 yds.
The visitor is on a 12-5 ATS run in Pittsburgh games.
Broncos check in with a current 12-3 ATS run.
The Broncos are 6-0 ATS in title games
Lets make it 7-0...
Broncos -3
========================
Carolina Panthers @ Seattle Seahawks -4.5 (43.5)
Seahawks hosts their first conference title game in franchise history.
They have 2nd best "O" in the NFL & won their last 12 meaningful games, while standing 13 pts away from a 14-1 ATS run. At home they are 9-0 SU, winning by an average of 16 pts.
Hasselbeck is a superb 21-4 SU in his last 25 home starts, hitting 65% of his passes. Impressive.
However the Seahawks have hosted only 3 quality teams during the regualr season (Falcons, Cowboys & Giants) won all 3 by 3 pts.
The Panthers of Carolina mark their 2nd title game away in the past 3 years. They are Road Warriors covering to the tune of 17-4 away, with the Pup posting an amazing 38-13 spread record when they take the field.
Carolina shines in post-season play covering 6 out of 6 under Coach Fox, with a 124-79 pt edge in the dog role.
Delhomme has thrown 28 TDS this season including 4 in the playoffs. (39 of 55 vs. the Giants & Bears)
The loss of Foster defintely hurts but I'll still take the points & pray for the upset.....
Panthers +4.5 / Moneyline
