What Vegas is Sayin

[NorthCoast]

Money started dropping on CIN yesterday after news the MB is not 100%, combined with DW being out line has dropped from -3 to -2.

BTW, Steelers are 7/1 favorites to win SB 50. Better than CIN or KC.

W vs. L totally depends on whether Good Ben vs. Bad Ben plays today. No way Vegas odds could take that into account.

Sharps money is overwhelmingly on the side of the Bengals. Public money is on the Steelers.

Excuse my gambling ignorance, but what is "sharps money"?

Yep. If Ben forces passes and throws picks we can start talking the draft.

Basically means "knowledgeable bettors" (i.e. pros). Funny because I was just texting my buddies, that if I were a betting man, I think I would load up on CIN.

I do not like the circumstances of the matchup.

[Oviedo]

Let's be honest. Every logical assessment says Bumgals. They have had the better season, got the better RBs and realistically have the better defense. Plus they are home team.

Heart says Steelers.

I'll go with heart---Steelers 30 Bumgals 20

[Shawn]

Smart money is certainly on the Bengals. But my gut says Ben lights them up and the D forces some serious mistakes from the inexperienced QB. Steelers 31 Bengals 27

reason more the tables will finally turn.... (at least maybe what they are thinking).

like the bills eventually won a super bowl... wait... they lost those 4 in a row, didn't they?

[RobinCole]

I never predict anything but I'm not optimistic.

I think smart money is looking at Ben under performing when he doesn't have a run game and has to force things after the D gets sliced up.

Radio guys all picked Cincinnati

But the most important player in the NFL is the QB. If ours plays like the elite QB he is tonight, and theirs plays like the backup QB he is, it's on to Denver for us.
