Wow, never realised how many coaches there on here... if we just listened to every damn excuse posted ITT, we'd win everything!
Look, we dominate the Ravens (always have) and we struggle against the Stoolers. Stoolers struggle against the Ravens and dominate us. Ravens dominate Stoolers and can't beat us.
Some teams have it against some teams, others don't. Stop overthinking it and realise that things happen because that's how things happen: there's no science or anything to prove for or against how the AFCN plays each other.

But seriously, simply put: the Bengals are intimidated by the steelers. Always have been under Marv for some reason. Even during their down year (2013) they still found ways to absolutely embarrass us. They just seem to have our number, even with a less-than-stellar head coach in Mike Tomlin. I'm not certain of the reason (I've offered a somewhat drunken theory in another recent thread), but I'm certain that it won't change until Marv is gone.
