I'm supremely confident. Bengals are just flat out better. We're gonna kill em.

Antonio Brown is Antonio Brown, Martavis Byant is looking like he'll become another headach for us, and Markus Wheaton is now clicking. With our banged up secondary I imagine that they're going to go deep on us...a lot. We really need our DL to actually take advantage of their OL and make them a one dimensional team.

I'm not a defensive coordinator (but I did stay at a Holiday Inn express once), but I think they should play a deep cover 2.  Sure, you give up the underneath, but that's pretty much what they have been doing all year anyway.

Youre insane....I cant recall the last time the bengals killed the steelers.  Sure, theyve won a few here and there but its never been a slaughter.

A little homage to 2pac.

I can't recall the last time it was damn near 70 degrees in December (in Ohio), but it will be on Sunday....

The Bengals have never beaten the Steelers by more than 10 points since Marvin Lewis became a head coach.

Got curious about it, so I did some number crunching (including the '05 postseason game)....


*8 & 18: Marvin Lewis' record against the Steelers as a HC.
*27.2 to 14.4: Average score of a Steelers victory over Bengals.
*12.8: Average margin of Steelers victory of Bengals.
*22.5 to 16.6: Average score of a Bengals victory over Steelers.
*5.9: Average margin of Bengals victory over Steelers.
*8: Number of times the Bengals have scored 20 or more points against the Steelers.
*6: Number of times the Bengals have scored 10 or less points against the Steelers.
*0: Number of times the Bengals have beaten the Steelers by more than 10 points.

Won't lie, got kinda bummed out as I did this math and typed it up. Also it does nothing to continue my amazement that somehow Marvin Lewis is still the HC of the Bengals.

I didnt look it up but knowing the history between these two teams the last 10 or so years, I knew it would be something similar to what you posted.
