Earliest Cash - Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach NFL Rotation #477 Sunday 8* Pittsburgh Steelers (+) @ Tennessee Titans @ 1 ET - In a match-up of unbeatens I am happy to take the better defense in this one. I know Tennessee has made a lot of noise in their past two games with huge offensive performances but the Titans defense (409.8 ypg) ranks among the worst in the league. The Steelers defense (285.2 ypg) ranks among the best in the league. Yes, Pittsburgh has a huge game with the Ravens on deck but there is no way they are looking past an undefeated Titans team. This is particularly true when they themselves are also undefeated and certainly looking to stay that way. I also like the fact that all of the Steelers wins have come by 5 or more points while Tennessee's first 3 wins all came by 3 or less points and then last week's win was in OT. Also, I am sure some Titans fans sent thank you letters to Texans interim head coach Romeo Crennel for his idiotic decision to go for 2 late in the 4th quarter instead of being a normal coach and being happy to kick the extra point and have an 8-point lead. That is the key reason the Titans are still undefeated and, with all their close games this season, it is only a matter a time of that "playing with fire" gets Tennessee burned. I expect them to feel that "burn" this week. 8* PITTSBURGH
