Steelers (-6) over Cleveland
1 play, the brown are only running one good play on offense. The Gracia bootleg right and he either hits the TE or the FB for a gain. The LB's for Pitts although aggressive should have the speed to snuff this play out. Big Ben has been showing signs of improvement and getting more acclimated to the NFL speed. Playing in Pitt the steelers defense always answers the call. Looking for Ward to have a big day and even though Duce is banged up he still should be a go come game time. This is a bitter rivalry game the steelers do not have the injuries that Cleveland does right now.
Lions (+7) over Atlanta
Coming off the bye the lions should have put that eagles game behind them. Lions have a young team, Harrington has to stop using tunnel vision on Williams. Atlanta has a very good defense and should generate a lot of pressure on Joey. Offensively the Falcons look hot and cold. IMO this will come down to a close game and a battle of FG kickers.
Bucs (ML) over NO
New blood at QB and fights between team members on NO leads me this way! Not too much other than that.
