I'll try, and in no way am I saying Pittsburgh will win outright, though I am leaning that way:
Pittsburghs offense moved the ball all game last week, not just in the fourth quarter, costly turnovers in Clevelands half of the field made the first half look worse that it really should have been, and this is the reason I hesitate to pull the trigger on the Steelers, those dreaded turnovers. You just don't know if it's "touchdown Tommy" or Turnover Tommy" on the field.
The Titans defense is just as banged up as Pittsburghs, and in the previous match up Kendrell Bell did not play, he is expected to play this time, but how healthy is he really?
Nobody can run the ball on Pittsburgh, certainally not a broken down Eddie George, so the Titans will do what everybody else has, spread the field and throw the ball, with Dyson out I really don't think Tenn has the recievers that Cleveland has, but again, will that make a difference against a WEAK secondary?
Pittsburgh, all season, seems to come to play only when it matters, even against Tampa Bay when they felt they had the game won they threw it into cruise control, cause for concern if they get a lead Saturday in my opinion.
This game actually looks like more of a toss-up than backers for either side want to admit, unfortunaly for handicappers I think this game will come down to things you really can't handicap, things like turnovers (though I would favor Tenn in that catagory), special teams big plays, and perhaps mostly coaching. This game could turn into a slugfest rather quickly, maybe the OVER is worth looking into?

Jeff will also install 2-4 "trick" or "deception" plays every game. The only thing Jeff does different is forgetting to shave.
