Can't believe the Bengals have the better record coming into this game. Would be a huge win for the Bengals, but I think it will be a grind. Hopefully Dalton and the offense can limit the mistakes and the defense can somewhat contain Wallace and Brown. Ben will probably pass for another 300 yards but as long as Dalton can make a few plays the Bengals have a shot.

Probably something like 24-16 Steelers but F it, I'm going 20-17 Bengals.

Rey Rey should be back. Pacman, we'll see. The Bengals will need to expose the Steelers line with their rushers and actually hold onto Ben when he moves out of the pocket. I'm very, very nervous about the Bengals shoddy secondary trying to defend the Steelers' weapons.

I was not talking about the Bengals but the Steelers.

If Woodley is back and plays like he had been playing and Harrison plays like he did tonight then I think the new Bengals QB is in for a bad night.

Hell we have almost seven days for a bengals player to get arrested. Let's not count our chickens before they hatch.

The Bengals will need Pacman back to match up with the Steelers WR. I could see Ben having 400 yards this game because the Bengals just can't match up with Wallace and Brown and Ben can extend plays so well. I think Dalton will have 200-250 but the Bengals winning will depend on their ability to limit Ben extending plays and if they can get any kind of run game.

Hopefully the Bengals get Maualuga, Jones & Gresham back this week... Although Skuta & Donald Lee filled in nicely while Rey & Gresham were out

Steelers need to implore the same strategy they used in New England. No Huddle, 5 wide sets, short passes. This will keep the Bengals from rotating defensive linemen and will force their linebackers to cover one on one.

Bengals got out coached in half one yesterday, then rebounded nicely in half 2 only giving up three first downs and 65 passing yards (technically 95, but 35 came on the final play)

Offensively, Cincinnati has to do a better job running the football. I would expect to see more B.Scott this week because he is a bit more shifty and can make the corner more efficiently. Benson is a workhorse who should get 15-20 carries, tackle to tackle.

Should be a great matchup. Who Dey.

I'll be surprised if Pittsburgh loses this one, but anything can happen. AJ Green could go off against our piss poor corners. Gotta pressure Dalton and I think we'll be ok.

Cincy tied for the best record in the AFC at the halfway point.....unreal.

Hopefully the Steelers come back pissed after last night and start Cinci's decline emphatically.

@Dan_Hoard When asked if Maualuga, Jones, and Gresham will practice this week, Marvin Lewis said, "Yes, yes, and yes."

This will be a real tough game. Steelers coming off that gutwrenching loss.

I'll take a win by any margin in this game. This could potentially send the Steelers into a spiral like in 2009.
