Season record 3-1

Pitt-14

Let's face it, these big number spreads aren't going away anytime soon. And although I'm always a little weary about a bs backdoor cover, I can't run away scared from such a gross mismatch. Pitt is top 3, Cleveland is bottom 3. Pitt is much better on both sides of the ball. Although Pitt failed to cover on the road last week, it was against an improving and optimistic team that actually got Ben to throw a pick six. Pitt always had them at safe distance--at home they won't be so forgiving. Cleveland won last week and that's a good thing as far as I'm concerned--a bad team like Cleveland will likely be a little lax after getting a win finally. Not to mention their win came against a team that is as miserable as they are--the Bills. Look for Pitt to win by 30.

I agree. I've been backing off the big spreads all year and costing myself alot of $$ by doing it. Cleveland has gotten rid of all of their offensive talent. The only way they score against Pitt is if Cribbs returns a kick to the house.
