I disagree that losing to Pittsburgh makes us the "same old Bengals." Pittsburgh is a top tier team, regardless of what the latest experts or power rankings have to say about them. Their offense with Ben back, Bell, Brown and Bryant is probably the best offense in the entire NFL. Even better than ours.
Losing to them would be disappointing, but it would do nothing to shake confidence in how legit the Bengals are this year.
What would be more concerning is losing to the Browns OR Texans. We need to win these primetime matchups. Especially against inferior teams.
