Default Chicago/Pittsburgh

I'm liking the Bears at +5.5 (at my book, VIP), but I am a Bears fan and don't want to go on emotion here. Thinking about possible outcomes on this one, I see it as a FG game either way. Would like everyone elses thoughts on this game. Also, do you think the line will move at all, I'd like to wait it out if I can get the full 6 points. I appreciate your input.

It's 6 or 6.5 at most books, I think. It opened at 4, so it looks like you can get it a 6 if you wait.

I've been betting the Chicago Under most of the year, and it's been quite profitable. I like this one, too (I got it at 31.5, though I still like it at 30.5). Their O/U seems to drop at least 1-2 points from where it opens every week, however, so you should try to get in your bet on Tuesday night if you're taking the Under (or on Sunday morning if you're taking the Over).

Thanks for the advice...I think I'm going to try and wait out the even 6pts, If the other books are at 6 or 6.5, I would imagine the VIP line would change eventually as well.

Tuesday night? Where's my head? I meant Sunday night.

If you like the bears with the number you have to like +240. If they are going to cover I love their chances to win as well.

One concern: both of the Bears' starting safeties are out, and their replacements are AWFUL, especially Mike Green. Not good for a team playing the Cover 2. Hopefully Roethlisberger won't have enough time to throw it deep and the Bears will become the worst 10-3 team of all time.
