The Steelers are a proverbial mountain. No way we can overlook that.

Considering Marvin Lewis has an astounding inability to beat the team he grew up cheering for, tomorrow is anything but a trap game. It's a must win. Proverbial monkey on our back. I'm sure most of your post was in jest but still, we cannot take Pittsburgh lightly. And I truly hope everybody in the bengals organization realizes that.

TRAP GAME ???? Trap Game ???? How do THE STEELERS take Bengals by surprise ? Steelers win most of these games every year. A trap game is Ohio State looking to Michigan and some team they didn't figure upsets them. Bengals vs Steelers is like Ohio State vs Michigan. Except Bengals are on the Michigan end of losing a lot lately. I'm sorry, but there is no way Steelers are a trap game. You build your team to play and beat the Steelers. If you don't build Bengals to beat anybody else, you build and draft to beat Steelers. You circle these games on the calendar. These are the biggest games of season for Bengals. Often the season comes down to winning against Steelers or not. It's a big game, but not a trap game because it's the biggest game of the year. A Trap is a surprise. There is no surprise to Steelers who beat Bengals often. That said, GO BENGALS.

even if we are up 28-0 in the first half, I wouldn't count the Steelers out.. The Steelers always find a way to get back into the game against us. Just like the second game last year. We were up I believe 17-3 at the half, and managed to lose 23-20... I hate them so much!!!
Need to score early, and every drive... it will be a complete 60 minute game... I see a shoot out..

This should’ve been in smack. It would’ve triggered both sides instead of just ours.

a division game against steelers can not possibly be a trap game.
No way they overlook this game.
If they win they tighten their grip on North, if they lose the steelers are right back in it with Bell returning.
Win or lose they will not get caught looking ahead.

Just a few key injuries and Pittsburgh becomes Cleveland 2.0..

Rooting for the Bengals to beat the Steelers sometimes feels like rooting for the guy with the Iraqi flag to beat Hulk Hogan...I'm just saying.
