Directly to your point, the Steelers have an elite Oline and a good defense that's holding teams to 21 pts a game. Their oline is opening holes for whoever runs the ball and they can protect the QB well enough to have him be Captain checkdown and still win close games. That's how they're winning with those guys. 

The Bengals are plenty bad enough in plenty of different ways. You don't need to invent scenarios where they would also be bad, if they weren't hypothetical. 

I'm more making the point that some people (not you) think that losing a couple players is enough to derail the season.

We've cited plenty of examples on the board of teams dealing with major injuries that still win. The Steelers are one such example.

Interestingly, the Steelers kept DeCastro while the Bengals passed on him in the draft and took Zeitler then let him go.

I guess it's all about what position groups teams value...but the Steelers draft well too.

Their trade for Fitzpatrick looks great too. At 4-4, it's not like they traded a Top 5 pick now. They ended up likely winning that trade.
