They won't be talking shit after another game or two.
I'd say 3-4 games is more realistic. This defense and o-line aren't going to be good enough to realistically contain the Steelers this season, and possibly not early next season. Hopefully, by the second game against them in 2021, three games from now, they'll have enough talent and chemistry to put the hurt on them. They'll need a good off-season & draft and for most everyone to actually stay healthy though.
I do see a light at the end of the tunnel for the first time in years, I just think second half of 2021 is where we see the start of the real payoff.
Edit: To be clear, I'm not at all down on the prospects of this team or Burrow. It's more a function of the fact that just winning a game against them won't shut them up. They need to be beaten soundly. For that type of win there's a good bit of work to still be done on both sides of the ball, but it's coming soon.
