I do think they lose to the Vikings in Minnesota, but then the Bears and Lions at home give me confidence, and I think Lawson and Atkins make Flacco collapse.

If we don't go vanilla wine we get up, I think we can control games.

And even if by some miracle, we do beat Pittsburgh in Primetime, I guarantee you we blow it in one or more of the following games. It's just how things go with Marvin Lewis
The question is if Marvin allows us to keep moving the ball on offense.

I'd love for them to win 4 or 5 and get a wildcard slot, but this schedule has 2-3 written all over it. We'll beat the Bears and steal one from the Lions or Ravens. Steelers and Vikings are losses. 7-9, here we come.
We'll beat the Steelers and maybe carry that momentum into the Vikings game after we beat the Bears.
