I will say that we can't just assume that become Thompson and Killebrew are backups that they suck. These dudes are still very capable NFL players. Also, Pittsburgh is another highly aggressive defense with an All-World pass rusher on their side. This is set up to be another tough game for Browning. They love to play two deep and you'll see plenty of late rotations and replacements. They're also happy to run a two-high man and bet on Watt getting to you or forcing a checkdown.
The Bengals could really, really benefit from a strong rushing performance today to try to get Pittsburgh to bring someone down. I said this last week for the Vikings but leaning on the rushing game a bit and allowing Browning to work off play-action and RPOs is what I would like to see. The Steelers defense loves to run downhill.
