My prediction for the Steelers games are based on how the first game goes. Meaning?
1. How they respond to the Steelers ***** slapping.
2. In the last 5 years, counting the playoff game, the Bengals are 3 and 9 against the Steelers, and 2 of the 3 wins have come AT Pittsburgh.
If they win in Pittsburgh, without Burfict, and don't respond to the ***** slapping, I say they got a good shot at a sweep, however they have a hard time beating them at home for some reason.
Since 2012, the Bengals are 3-5 vs the Steelers in regular season. The average score is Steelers- 23 Bengals- 18. I wouldn't exactly call that a "***** slapping".
That's even including a game where our starting QB got knocked out on the first drive of the game. All I'm saying is that there's reasons for optimism going forward. I'm looking forward to our games with the Steelers this year. I doubt the Steelers' offense feels the same way.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
