That was how bad we were decimated with Rankins, BJ Hill, Hubbard and our rookies hurt and our talent is not near as high.
However Nate to be fair, Rankins is no where near Heyward, and Hubbard has to have been one of the worst DL in the NFL this year period. Doesn't help when CBT has stunk up the joint at CB either.
The other side of the coin is the Steelers also have a good enough front office that have quality 2nd string DL to at least get them through the tough time. Evidently the Bengals do not. Even with the DL back, teams are walking through our defense like it's butter. So again, you can blame injuries but I think this goes deeper than injuries.
