I am the first to throw around the prime time thing and Daytime Dalton and all that crap but it's just silly to view today's game through the lens of a normal game...
Even if it were a normal where we had all our guys out there, teams don't go 16-0. Playing the Steelers, especially after beating them in their own house earlier in the season, is a really loseable game and doesn't mean all that much in the grand framing of the Bengals.
