They are very depleted , I suspect have heavy blitz by steelers to pressure and rush Browning

Prediction: Pain. Overtones of ugliness. Injuries. At least one fight. Mike Tomlin might even try to trip one of our players.
The Steelers will play dirty, take lots of cheap shots, and try to break Jake Browning in half. It will be for naught; the Bengals will win.

You would think the Bengals should win this. Outside of Watt their defense hasn’t been as good as I thought it would be, plus they are depleted. Rudolph has barely played in like two years. But that never seems to matter. The Bengals had a great year against the Steelers in 2021 and split last year, so hopefully our fortune is changing.
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American

That's actually pretty advanced communication skills for the average Steelers fan.

No doubt. You can always tell the die hards too, from their scarred knuckles that constantly drag the ground.

Sounds like everyone but Chase is a healthy scratch. Saying Irv is to make room for an extra DT.
