Long time Bengal hater and Steeler Homer picks the Bengals to pull it off. I think all off-season he was dreading us getting Burrow and trying to create the narrative that Burrow didn't want to come here. I like his site but I think Florio is a know it all twerp that has some really bad football takes.
We won't beat the steelers because we haven't made any adjustments against the zone blitz concept..everytime we against the zone blitz burrow holds the waaaaaaaay to long (Philly game,ravens game,browns second game)..This needs to be rectified like yesterday,more screen calls more chipping against the better pass rushers and more tempo..
For what it's worth I hope I eat crow and we pull it off but I can't lie right now I just don't see it especially not with this coaching staff..

Wtf? Lol Burrow threw for 400 yards and had 4tds in the second Browns game lol. He did fine. The only real **** up was on a bad snap..

He also got sacked 3 times by none other than myles Garrett a direct byproduct of the holding the ball against a simple zone blitz pressure which Pittsburgh is world famous for..

You worry to much.. Every QB gets sacked here and there. I doubt Zack has him sitting in the pocket trying to get them deep to much. You will see alot of quick hitter stuff.. Bubble screens/ slants... When they back off is when Tee and AJ will get em deep. I'd like to see Ross in there too, to stretch the field...

Offense was just fine 2nd Browns game. Our defense lost us that game by giving up all TDs of every Browns possession in the 2nd half. Burrow will be fine.

I worry too much??did you watch the ravens game??it was pathetic 4 quarters and we never made an adjustment,this coaching staff doesn't give me much confidence against a pressure team..
I hope I'm wrong for the sake of our qb but for some reason I don't think I'll be wrong on this one..

This has been a weird week. Some media members think this is going to be a close game. Our social media team played the old TJ towel clip which got some past and current Steelers ignited. There's all the talk of Ben being injured AGAIN. This usually leads to us getting embarrassed and remaining a joke to the league.
The sucky thing going for us is that we're in the midst of the longest losing streak in our rivalry. The Steelers have won 10 straight games. We're a little over 5 years removed since our last win against the Steelers.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.

Yes, it would be great to see a win on Sunday, but it might be more realistic just to hope for a game free of major injury on both sides that is a competitive game.
Everybody got excited about the win over Tennessee, but did anybody see their game last night? Mostly they did themselves in over two horrible punts and a missed field goal that took the air out of their balloon, but they looked pretty bad.

Yeah but its also the same team that is one missed field goal away of taking the only undefeated team to OT. So though we aren't favored, its not like Steelers are an amazing undefeated team at this point.
