Steelers +9 in Buffalo

[RVJ]

I wonder what the line would be if it meant something for the Steelers.

I bet the Bills would still be favored...something like Bills -2.

That's an insane line with the Steelers defense. Heart says Bills will win, head says they won't cover that number!

That could be right. Laying down, like we think the Colts and Steelers may do, is a bad idea on at least 2 points, not to mention momentum etc.

 

One, NFL players want to win (almost all of 'em), and two, contracts often have incentive clauses. Holding starters out can and does get interpreted by players as a money grab by the organization.

 

That leaves a bad taste...
