January 11, 2009
Steelers To End San Diego Dreamers From Advancing Any Further
I’m going to break this one down real easy. Please take the following quiz:
Would you rather have:
a) A quarterback who is slippery to tackle, is a proven winner and a relentless leader
b) A quarterback who can’t stay healthy, has never won a big game and his an iffy knee
Would you rather want:
a) A top-speed back who is 5-10 and 210 pounds
b) A top-speed back with a torn groin
c) A top-speed back who can’t ride most roller coasters at amusement parks
Would you rather desire:
a) A young coach with a proven commitment to basics, who has masterminded the top-ranked defense in the nation
b) An old coach who has a proven history of losing. Like, a really proven history of losing.
Would you rather bet on:
a) A team that has double-digit wins
b) A team that barely won half its games
Would you rather pick:
a) A game breaking safety who gets involved on every key point of the defensive attack?
b) Quinten Jammer
Ok that last question made it obvious, but the if you picked “a” to all those questions, then you should be betting on the Pittsburgh Steelers this weekend at their home turf. Pittsburgh is 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games against San Diego and 5-1 ATS in their last 6 games at home.
San Diego has Norv Turner. Norv Turner is the coach of the San Diego Chargers. I can not make this any more clear to you. Norv Turner is calling plays in San Diego!
San Diego Chargers (8-8) vs. Pittsburgh Steelers (12-4)
Sunday, January 11th — Heinz Field, Pittsburgh — 4:45pm EST
NFL Betting Line: Pittsburgh -6 (38)
Mind you, the weather will be wicked in Pittsburgh this weekend so check the weather reports on Sunday morning before you go buck wild taking the Steelers. That’s a big line to cover if the weather isn’t manageable for any style of play. Either way, bet on the Steelers top-ranked defense to take control of this game and reward Pittsburgh’s betting faithful as they’ve done all NFL betting season.
NFL Free Pick: Pittsburgh -6 (UNDER)
