(winning teams = teams that finished with winning record)

First of all most people don't realize that during the Marvin Era only 5 teams (Phi, Ind, Den, Pitt, NE) had more wins against winning teams than the Bengals 42, but look at the breakdown of the Bengals and Steelers wins.

Bengals had 38 wins against winning teams other than Steelers.
Steelers had 38 wins against winning teams other than Bengals.

Bengals had 4 wins against Steelers when they finished with a winning record.
Steelers had 19 wins against Bengals when they finished with a winning record. 

ONE THIRD of all of the Steelers wins against winning teams came against just one team, the Bengals.  They were not that much better than us, but they absolutely owned us.

TY Fred, great factual post. I knew they were owned by them, had no idea it was so 1 sided against our winning teams, but makes sense now that you point it out.

If we can't beat them, maybe we can have Finley try and rip off the helmet of Heyward or Dupree causing them to go full throttle rage and retaliate. I saw that once, I think a QB got bashed over the head with his own helmet.
