It's about ML having the deer in the headlighrs look anytime we play the Steelers, they're our nemesis, they're Marvin's nemesis.

And about how that lack of confidence, lack of mojo, rubs off on everything else Bengals. We can't beat Pittsburgh and it all goes to hell from there. Lose under the lights, lose against good teams when we need a win, lose in the playoffs.

And he refuses to change his approach, not to just Steeler games all the time ! This team wins in spite of Marvin Lewis and the coaching not because of it.

Nemesis and rival are practically interchangeable.
Even though you've clarified, I still disagree with you. I wouldn't care if the Bengals lost to the Steelers every game as long as they were going deep into the playoffs.
