Detroit and Pittsburgh. And I gotta tell you, Joe, the, the Steelers. I'll miss Mike Tomlin. Uh, whenever this, this, this, this ride is done. They, they are fun to talk about because it's really, listen, we could do the X's and O's of it all. We could talk about personnel, right? It's just toddling spots. Is it a tolerance spot? Is it not? And here we go. No, no, no, oh no. So listen to me. So right, we talked about Pittsburgh when they went to Baltimore. That was a Tomlin spot, right? We saw it clear as day. So then what happens? They play Miami. And you get, you know, different people out there being like, ha ha ha ha, Pittsburgh's not that good. Trust me, Rug pulled out from underneath them. Here comes Miami. Steelers smash. Now we get to this game here against Detroit, and you got people going, why do they think the Steelers are no good? This team's got fight. They got moxie. No, they don't. This is a Tomlin spots. Every game's a Tomlin spot. It's just a matter of is it hot or is it cold. Uh, this feels like a game where the Steelers get absolutely destroyed. It it does. But, and there were some 6, 6.5s out there were 7s earlier in the week. So there were 7s. Then there was like a loose 6.5 hanging out. Now I got 7 in the hooks in some spots. Yeah, well, there you go, because everybody feels that Detroit obviously needs the game and the, and the passing attacks. Now some people fell for the banana in the tailpipe, you know, some. We didn't, right? But, but at the end of the day, at the end of the day, uh. I mean Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh stepped up and, and dominated the, the fish, and I told you that with Steelers, look, Steelers were the right side last week, you know what I mean, literally the right side, right, we, we, yeah, right, but you know that defense stepped up and, and Miami does what they always do in cold weather environments and the defense didn't show up and contain, uh, Aaron Rodgers and that passing attack in any capacity. But when you look at this game, yes, I. Look, Detroit should wipe Pittsburgh across Ford Field today, OK, just because of the level that they have. Where is the mindset? I mean, they had a 1010 point lead at half. I mean, Jamison Williams, 92 yards, Saint Brown with 162, and they still lost by 7. I, I mean, Jared Goff had one of his cleanest performances, you know, in the first half. He was hitting on all cylinders, but again, the questions for Detroit. are on the defensive side of the football. That secondary gets torched every week. So when you look at this, yeah, I expect Detroit to move the football. I mean, if Tua had two garbage touchdowns, it's gonna be a big day potentially, you know, for everybody, right? Uh, I, I mean, Jamison should get 80. Saint Brown should get, uh, close to 100. Jameer Gibbs, I think, can run the football. We saw Achn have success early, but what What is the defense gonna do, especially against Jalen Warren and the rushing attack. I do have concerns about that. I, that, that is a cause of concern. Now, when you see the total, 51, and I don't think I could get there at, at the 51.5. I think Tomlin and I think this team go in there with that run mentality, and we're gonna, we're gonna run it. We're gonna, you know, sustain drives and let's, let, let's make it a playoff type of game. So, I mean, I would take the 6.5 if I, if you're asking me to bet a side. I don't love it. My best play is the under 51.5. So, uh, yeah, I, I would. I would only bet Detroit, um, I just, again, I probably should have bet some of the 6.5 last night, but I, I didn't, and now it's 7.5, and that's a little far gone for me, um. The Lions offense though is in a really, really good spot. And I think what makes them so tempting in this game is the Pittsburgh defense is about as injured as the Lions' defense. So if the Lions can actually play a game on level footing, right, the Lions are, here's the thing about the Lions, they are good, OK? They, they are, they are good, but people are like, oh, what if the defense gets healthy? Never gonna happen. These guys are, these guys are done. And the problem is, it's like you get to the playoffs. And then all of a sudden you might get a cold game and then it's Jared Goff in the west. So the Lions to me are not very tempting unless they, uh, look, the crazy thing is there's a world they win the NFC North, and it's not like a far-fetched world, Joe. It's really not where they win the NFC North. Yeah, yeah. So, so let me just say this. You, you like them today. You think they win the football game, right? I think they win, but I think it, it, it could be a, yeah, I, I like, I like Pittsburgh to with the 6.5 just because again, I think it's a closer game, more of a playoff atmosphere.
