Cleveland Browns vs. Pittsburgh Steelers

Cleveland Browns vs. Pittsburgh Steelers was one of the most sought after games of the week, or at least the Steelers were in terms of sports betting.  Nearly 80 percent of those wagering on this game were all over Pittsburgh with a line that remained firm at -14 after opening some places at -15.  The action has gotten a little less lopsided since nearly 90 percent of bettors were on Pittsburgh at this line Thursday.

BetUS.com analysts had this to say about the game and getting a -14 on a team that has looked a little suspect so far this season:

"It is hard to lay two touchdowns in an NFL game but this game has huge blowout potential. For the first time since week one the Steelers will have all their key players on the field and in a divisional game they will not let up in the second half no matter what the score is.

"While Pittsburgh should be able to score at will, Cleveland's offense will really struggle. If they could only manage two first downs and two field goals against Buffalo, they will find this week's challenge much tougher. Pittsburgh shut them out 31-0 in the last meeting and you can expect a similar score here."

Pittsburgh has beaten Cleveland over the last 10 games in this series with five of those games staying within the current spread and Gambling911.com is also on this game at -14, which might not bode well for Steelers backers since we went 0-10 in the past two weeks of NFL plays.
