The lack of confidence in this thread is astounding. I'm no homer. My confidence level depends on how the team is performing and right now we're looking at the most complete team in the NFL and possibly the best Bengals team since '88.
I would not trade our weapons for the Steelers', we have a better defense, we're at home and we already beat them in Pittsburgh when they had Leveon Bell for a half.
This will be a close, hard fought game as usual. Our D matches up well with their O. We have an excellent d-line so Ben won't have all day to sit around picking out big plays downfield. We have a top 5 pass defense that is outstanding at limiting opponents to short throws (6.7 ypa).
In short, I'm more confident in our offense's ability to hang points on their D than vice versa.
Bengals- 27
Steelers- 20
