Not even close. The perception when they were leading the league in arrests back in '05 or so was much worse. We haven't had an arrest in almost two years (knock on wood). The Steelers have had three since then.
People across the country don't know many Bengals fans but they all have towel twirling Steeler cry-baby friends. So when SteelerVision announcing crew approach the whole game like everyone on the Bengals team is an out of control thug and calls it like the game was all fair and square and above board it's easy for people to buy that narrative.
My hope is that these guys can grow from this. They need to realize that their play now has the Steelers intimidated. They don't need all this playground talk BS. Let their play do the talking from now on.
