There is certainly still hope, but we have to start winning games.
The Steelers look horrible, but for years they have beaten us even when they were not better than us. It will be interesting to see if they still own us with a new coach.
Under Lewis the Bengals won 39% of their games against teams not named "Steelers" that finished with a winning record. That number doesn't sound very high until you see that only 5 teams in the league won more than 39% of their games against teams that finished with a winning record. But against the Steelers when they finished with a winning record we were only 4-20, or 17%. And only two teams won fewer than 17% of their games against teams with winning record.
The Steelers just owned us.
