Bengals over 20.5 -120 2.40 Units
The Steelers are ranked 28th out of 32 in passing yards allowed per game at 246 p/g. Pitt is 7th best in rushing yards allowed at 74 p/g and just 3.1 per attempt. What does this mean? Carson Palmer is going to throw all over this defense. I have them capped at 30 for this game.
Tampa Bay Over 16 points -120 2.40 Units
Carolina is 2nd worst in the league vs the run at 196 p/g and 4.9 per attempt. Gruden is going to keep the ball out of Simms hands and on the ground with Caddy. Keeping the ball on the ground will limit the turnovers. The defense/special teams will set up one score and Caddy will have at least one more. It seems like a head scratcher of a pick, but the Bucs will improve dramatically this week on the offensive side of the ball.
Seattle Under 24 -110 1.1 Units
This Seattle offense is not what it was last year. The loss of Hutchinson has hurt more than anyone will say. Alexander is dealing with a sore foot and will not be 100%. The Giants are 2nd to last in the league in passing defense at 308 per game but they have played Manning and McNabb, two of the top 5 or 6 QB in the league. Hasselbeck is good, but the Seattle offense will sputter just enough to fall under this total.
Good Luck,
