NFL Thursday delight

[Jdiddy8four]

I think Pitt will win by at least 2 scores. I don't see Tenn being what they were last year.

 

[Feri]

BOL this season g! :toast:

 

[gabbana]

rhanks for the comments and opinions guys...i hope everyone has a good time and a profitable season.

 

[ginseng3]

I also think this Tenn. team is very very talented. As I said a few days back .. this is a statement about to be made.

Do you have any numbers on this?

I was curious about this too, so I looked it up:

[lucc56]

by the way about everyone saying haynesworth is gone ya sure it hurts but both he and vanden bosch were out of this game last year and the titans dominated them shut down their running game and were all over big ben. close game here

 

[Nicky49]

How dose anyone figure that Tn. has no chance????

HEAD 2 HEAD RESULTS (SINCE 2001)
Date Score Line O/U
Dec 21, 2008 PIT 14, @TEN 31
Sep 11, 2005 TEN 7, @PIT 34
Sep 28, 2003 TEN 30, @PIT 13
Jan 11, 2003 PIT 31, @TEN 34
Nov 17, 2002 PIT 23, @TEN 31
Nov 25, 2001 PIT 34, @TEN 24
Oct 29, 2001 TEN 7, @PIT 34

With these scores since 2001, why is the 0/U only 35 this year?

 

[DayTraderNation]

I really, really liked the titans tonight but its too easyyyyy.

Pitt in a romp by at least 10-14.

thanks for this and best of luck everyone! foots is back!!!!!!!

 

[Selectrick]

Super bowl winners always win and cover first game of the season.So be careful with titans.I have 2 rules about betting dogs.#1ruleont bet a dog that has no shot at winning the game.#2ruleont bet a dog that does not have a high powered offense.Imo,tennessee applies to both.Good luck this weekend.:toast:

I wouldn't say always but I do remember reading about it being in the 80% range over quite a long period of time, so you're right, be careful with this one! As a matter of fact even Super Bowl losers are tough the following opening game. Cheers and Good Luck!

 

[hcskip]

Well, Gabby nailed this one. And I picked the actual spread! And go the Under, in spite of the stats showing the Overs the past several years....

Congrats, G!!!!<><>

 

[gabbana]

thanks for all your opinions guys,
good start for me this season as the titans barely lost in OT but covered easly.
also nailed a big play in college foots too.

Sides: 1-0 +2 units

 

[MightyGinseng]

I was surprised to see so many posters I respect on Pitt tonight. Ten's only real loss was Haynesworth... And in their romp last year over Pitt didn't even have him.

Too bad they didn't win in regulation, those 2 field goals were heart breakers. Nice call Gab.

 

[mcv692]

you forgot

i am so pissed, not only because tenn didn't win straight up, but because their field goal kicker, baron-ass!! missed two field goals, they hit, tenn wins straight up. but i still had tenn +6.5 either way.!!!!
