Don't really want to get into another "value" v. Stupid bet type debate...
...but I saw Cleveland as high as 7.00 (+600) to win the Div!! :scared :scared
They are a game behind...the catch is, I guess that they need to win by a clear game, given Pits won both meetings...but looking at the schedule i think they're a huge chance to do it!! (Far better than the odds suggest anyway!)
Cleveland have: Houston (H), Jets (A), BUff (H), SF (H)...which you'd suggest would be all wins.
Leaving Arizona and Cinci both on the road...
...now I'll assume that they'll be 'dogs for both of these games, but they both look very winnable.
I'd say 4 wins, decent chance of 5, slight chance of 6...
Pits have: Miami (H) which is a certain win...Cinci (H) I'd think would be a win...
...NE (A) Loss...
...then 3 very difficult/dodgy games; Jax (H), S.L. (A) and Balt (A)
Given they've lost to the Jets, Denver and Zona on the road so far, nothing suggests to me that any of those games look easy...
If the Brownies end up winning 5 of their last 6, can the Steelers win 4 of those games to tie (and so win) the Div?...would have to win 2 of those last 3...2 on the road and home to a solid Jags??...
...anyone??
Not a certain winner by any means, but crazy odds, imo... :shrug:

Looks like a smart bet.
