    Tennessee Titans +7 -120 --- WINNER


    Added play:

    New York Giants @ Dallas Cowboys - Total Over 50 ---- WINNER




    Well the NFL is back and the Slant is back! Woo-hoo! I kicked some serious ass last season in the NFL, especially with my Double Plays. Hopefully it continues.

    I like Tennessee in this spot. Tenn has improved and Pittsburgh has not IMO. These two teams played last year and Tenn won outright as a 5.5 point underdog. Tenn has improved their offensive line Significantly with first round pick Chance Warmack and underrated free agent guard Levitre. Chris Johnson will have bigger holes to run through and Locker will have more time to throw his short to medium range passes. Tenn also added stud safety Bernard Pollard, in addition to another good safety in George Wilson. Pittsburgh lost starting CB Keenan Lewis and stud LB James Harrison to free agency. On offense Pittsburgh lost pro-bowl WR Mike Wallace and starting RB R. Mendenhall to free agency, and will be without starting RB L. Bell and starting TE Heath Miller (Rothlis-raper's security blanket). Big Ben ran for his life last season, ran for his life this pre-season, and will be running around all over the place this Sunday vs. a good pass rushing defense in the Tenn Titans.

    The only reasons I don't like this play is that the public is betting on Tenn, J. Locker is turnover prone, and Pittsburgh has a 10 or so game streak of winning season openers. Nevertheless, I'll gladly take Tenn +7 and won't be surprised at all if Tenn wins it's second straight game outright vs. Pittsburgh.


    Some trends that support the play:

    Underdog is 4-1 ATS in their last 5 meetings.
    • Steelers are 2-5-1 ATS in their last 8 games overall.
    • Steelers are 4-10-1 ATS in their last 15 vs. AFC.
    • Steelers are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 home games.
    • Steelers are 1-4-1 ATS in their last 6 games on grass.


    Lastly - two of our most knowledgeable members who are also huge Steeler fans (MacD and Bebe) both think Tenn covers too. I gotta take a shot for that reason alone!



    Good luck with all your plays guys.

        Dallas and New York missing multiple defensive starters. Both offenses shouldn't miss a beat. 4-0 Over L4 head-to-head at Dallas

            I think you are right my friend!!... I dont see a well balanced pitt off, and tennessee timing is perfect... I see a very close game...

            I hate to say this as a die hard steeler fan, but probably we are going to see the worst season for pitt in a long time! !..

            Good luck!!
            Happy to be the first member of this great forum. Thanks TIS!!!

                            Monte Kiffin and Rod Marinelli have apparently put together a turnover creating Machine in that Dallas Cowboys Defense. They were creating all kinds of turnovers in the pre-season and it continued in a big way last night. Dallas D hasn't created turnovers (and scored TD's) like this since the 1990's teams. Impressive coaching.
