I was thinking the same thing.  Being able to stop the run is important, but Pittsburgh better be scoring every time.  If they can't stop KC with no J. Charles, it will be a long day for Pittsburgh.

They will not be rushing Burfict back either.  With Pittsburgh losing this week, the Bengals are 2.5 games ahead.  This would be a huge blow for Pittsburgh, but not for Cincinnati in regards to who wins.  Risking a player that could be huge in the stretch into the mix when he is less than 100% would be silly.  I hope he's ready this week, but if he's not- we keep playing hard.  The next month's schedule is in Cincinnati's favor.
