CLE @ PIT -10
Wouldn't touch this with a 10 foot pole, to be honest.

I actually like Pitt here. Pitt is 4-0 at home winning by an average margin of 24 points.
26-3 v Buffalo
37-16 v SF
21-0 v Seattle
38-7 v Baltimore
They already trounced Cleveland once this year IN Cleveland 34-7. I have no doubt that Cleveland is much improved, but this Pittsburgh team is underrated by many. DVOA has Pitt by 8 right now, but I expect that to go up to 9 once this Week's numbers come out. MOV has Pitt by 15.5
Pitt is leading the league in defensive passing ypg and passing ypa, which is Cleveland's strength. I expect Cleveland to come down to Earth a bit, against a very scary team.
