Thursday Night Football (Week One)...

[emkee]

Record goes here.

Feel out weeks through 1-3, goal is not to dig to big of a hole or conversely get en fuego.

Glancing across the card there's a ton of question marks in Week 1.

Hip to be square straight outta the gates...

Pittsburgh Steelers at New England Patriots

The play...

Patriots -6.5 (2.2 to win 2)

By the numbers a Pats ML play is a sure thing, spread slightly less (historical and situational).

Basically says you'll go halfway broke backing the Thursday night dog.

Would be more concerned of the Pats' off-field woes showing up in Week's 2 or 3 than at home in Week 1.

Gonna be a 'Band of Brothers' / 'Circle the Wagons' type atmosphere in Foxboro this Thursday night.

Steez' defense is gonna be a mess, that's the truth.

Pats' defense lost some parts but the one thing you can always credit Belly-ache for is getting a no-name defense to punch above their weight.

Offensively both teams could be open to little stagnancy given what's missing. Have to trust Tom in that scenario.

We shall see.

Thanks fellas.

Teams that won 10+ games in the previous season and are a road dog in Week 1 are 7-21-2 ATS (4-26 SU).

Home faves are 7-2-2 ATS (11-0 SU) on Thursday in Week 1.

Thanks Trey.

Fortunate to get in earlier with a better number. Will take it.

Hate it when teams go into that prevent defense late with the cover on the line. NFL is definitely back.

Either way was a faux win by the Pats, outgained and outrushed. Steez just mucked up in key spots, worth a decent look next game.

Next week's game in Buffalo will be interesting.
