The first game with Baltimore, the embarrassment at Tennessee, the Titans game and the Steelers game are all games where I felt the Bengals could have and should have won because I felt like they had better talent on the field.
Still thought they should of beat the Texans too, even if they are a good team. Dang Boyd drop.
The stealers losing to the Pats though is pretty terrible though, bad gameplan by them as Nepa here shows.

They ran 28 times for an average of 2.9/carry. And that was because of the QB running effectively. Najee had 12 carries for 2.4 yards/carry and Warren 7 carries for 1.6 yards/carry. They just kept running against the number 3 defense against the run.
The Steelers had an absolute terrible game plan against the Patriots and never adjusted it.
Guess they have no confidence in the Biscuit. I get it. So happy we have looked much better against the run the last few games.
We can beat the stealers, just have to concentrate on these Vikings first and slowing down their run game, JJ and the TE.
Some WR I don't know might go off on us, but that is okay as long as it isn't the RB's, JJ or their TE.

We need our defense to help us win the last 4 games. Yesterday they were amazing against the run, Colts are a great running team but we stone walled them.
Yes, the Defense knows they need to step up big time. You can tell against the Colts they knew it. It is their time.
The Defense is a huge reason for our late and post season success over the last couple of years.
