Good morning, everyone. The Simple Handicap for Friday, September 10th. Thank you for making me a part of your morning.

And how fantastic was it to have football back on TV last night? Stans are full of fans. The excitement was back within the stadium, within the environment.

No more fake crowd noises. It just feels right

again. And I was having a conversation with someone on the phone yesterday afternoon. And I was

saying it feels like yesterday and today and this entire weekend is more of a New Year's Day

weekend than New Year's Day weekend actually is for the actual

new year. It just, there's something about this time in September. The season's changing

football's back on the TV and we settle into a routine that just can't be beat, plain and simple.

So hopefully you're as excited to have it back as I am. But of course, with Thursday night football in the rearview mirror, the focus shifts over to Sunday where the Pittsburgh Steelers go on the road to the Buffalo Bills to kick off things.

Where the Pittsburgh Steelers go on the road to play the Buffalo Bills, Buffalo still holding steady, six and a half point favorite.

Total here, 48 and a half.

Not much to add here from the line movement perspective. You guys know how this number got to where it is.

You guys know that it's a very significant difference from what we saw in week 14 last season in this

same matchup. And you know that there was two conflicting releases from very powerful groups,

one on the under, one on the over. It's a game that, for the most part, seems to be lined

quite correctly. Two things that I'll add to this for some value here today were props that I

put in. One, Najee Harris, under 59 and a half rushing yards. The other one, Ben Rafflesberger, under 267.5 passing yards.

Nagei Harris, very simple.

Getting a ton of hype and the prospects about him coming into the NFL, fantastic.

People think that he's magically going to change this Steelers ground game.

The only problem is the offensive line in front of him is absolutely horrendous. Lots of preseason projections have this as a

bottom three unit in the NFL. They had the worst ground game last year and you take a number
