That's basically always a concern.

I don't neither. However, I'm not 100% they've improved, just hoping they have.

My memory stinks but I think Mims did a nice job w TWATT. If so, no bueno w him being out.

We will see, as I am not convinced either. The Broncos aren't really a juggernaut either besides Sutton. I liked what I saw of the young guys in 
Newton, Ivey, Marco Wilson and of course Mike Hilton in the Secondary though. Also liked what I saw from Ossai and Cedric Johnson on the DL.

Pratt and ADG were a lot better in this last game and they were terrible against the stealers. We will see.

Mims was really good against Twatt the last game for sure. Problem is his hand is broke now and if he does play it will be with a club which is a 
distinct disadvantage for him against the elite Twatt. Cochran had a rough game against the Broncos but they aren't punks either and lead the 
league in Sacks. I actually liked the fight the OL shown after Burrow got Sacked in the RZ in I think it was the 2nd quarter.

Been wanting to see some fire out of our OL when our QB gets hit. They weren't backing down against arguably the best DL in football even if 
they allowed a lot of sacks. That happens if you just aren't as good, but in the end we had the last laugh.

Time for picks

If the Bengals are w/o Mims and C.Brown

That's his way of saying the bengals defense doesnt' scare him. Too bad we don't have Burfict out there anymore. We need someone mean.

Steelers have lost 3 in a row, playing their worst ball of the season. If the Bengals can get a two score lead early, they certainly have a chance of making Pittsburgh commit some unforced errors and losing the game.

They lost to the Eagles, Chiefs and Ravens
3 teams that “can” win the SB.

They are salivating at the chance for a “get right” game…..at home.…against a “been wrong” D

I have no teen age, wise guy comments as some others on here.  This is Football. This is A Rival Game.  Play-offs or No Play-offs, BEAT PITTSBURGH.....Lose and Bengals get swept by both Ravens and Steelers.  Lose and Bengals finish with a losing record. ....Win and Bengals avoid being swept by Steelers.  Win and Bengals have a winning record this season.  That means no losing seasons since 2020, four years of winning seasons, which in Bengals History is pretty good.  .....If the Players and Fans had any Pride, they would want to Beat Steelers. They wouldn't be talking Draft spots or Play-Offs chances slim, They would want to Beat Steelers.   Any Real Bengals Fans always want to Beat Steelers.  

Joe Burrow gets hit a lot by Watt and Company, but Burrow pulls it off.  The Bengals Defense plays good enough.  One Bengals mistake in some Steelers Games is not going All Out all 4 quarters.  The Steelers go All Out the entire game, so Bengals can't start not ready or take the foot of the gas in second half.  To Beat Steelers, it takes going All Out every minute of the Game.  Not doing so has been a mistake of Bengals in their History. 

Bengals 27
Steelers 26

Burfict and Pacman lost a Play-Off Game in the most stupid way possible.  I'm still ashamed of The Bengals in that game.  Bengals ahead with about a minute left.  Here comes Big Ben to make a field goal drive.  Except Big Ben doesn't have to.  Burfict gets a 15 yard un-sportsman penalty, and then Pacman.  The ball is moved up 30 free yards and Steelers kick winning field goal without even needing Big Ben to make a drive.   You say that is good football, I say that is Stupid football.  They lost control of themselves and the situation of the game.  Burfict and Pacman lost a Play-Off game the most Stupid way a game can be lost.  Burfict wasn't drafted by teams, because he was kind of stupid.  Pacman was pretty stupid also.  Combined they blew a last minute Play-Off lead to Steelers in the most Stupid way a game can be lost.  McCarron to Green should have won the game.  McCarron should have went down as the QB that ended the Bengals no Play-Off Wins streak.   Burfict and Pacman were just too Stupid, and there is no place in The NFL for players that Stupid.....Burfict and Pacman both lost their heads and did un-sportsman penalties with a minute left in game.  30 free yards for Steelers to simply kick the field goal.  On that day, Cincinnati was stupid, thanks to Burfict and Pacman so stupid. 

Also I don't miss if Burfict or Pacman are going to be in jail or not to play a game, that was a problem of them also.  What people like about them, is also what made the Bengals THE LOSERS that they were.  Players like them could never play for the dynasty Patriots or a John Madden.   That some even want them back and the losing Bengals back is what is known as Bengalized, and that means over rating the Losing Years.  Burfict and Pacman were selfish and stupid, not putting the Team First. They lost because they were losers, not winners.  Both of them also were at the cheap tramp female dancer bars until closing all the time, and getting in fights with police after these nights at the bars, and not in the best shape to play football.  They did not put The Team First.  They were also Stupid, because with their money, they could have hired a driver or a cab, and avoided DUI's and arrests.  Both Burfict and Pacman were too stupid to be in the NFL.  Now their nonsense might be OK in fake TV Wrestling, but not in the NFL.  However I was working in a store when the TV Wrestler the Iranian Sheik pulled up in a Limo.  In the store he was a normal person.  So he was smart enough to have a Limo driver, so Burfict and Pacman driving around Cincy getting in police trouble means they were probably also too stupid for TV Wrestling. 

The fact is neither could play in todays NFL.  As Refs started calling the helmet to helmet hits, Burfict was getting tossed out of games fast by Refs.  Burfict was too stupid to comply with the new rules.  Again, this is why no NFL team drafted him.  Yes he was big, but he was stupid. So was Pacman.  You say you want " Mean ".  You clearly don't know the new NFL rules.  Stupid and Mean would lose a team every game of the season on endless 15 yard penalties.

The Steelers can't win the Division, but they can move up on the Wild Card board. It's really just that simple.

First off all, I don't remember Vontaze Burfict getting in trouble off the field one single time while he was with the Bengals. He was home at night with his wife and dog. He got arrested in 2020, but he was long gone from here.  You're projecting Pacman's actions onto Burfict. I was no Burfict fan and did not want him here, until he got here. I then started to like him as a player. But your statements about him and cheap dancer bars etc. are pure fiction.

burfict never got into trouble.  adam jones has done a remarkable job raising  the 2 children of chris henry..good guy....adam Jones and burfict most certainly could play in todays NFL... as a matter of fact if we had burfict, Jones, Bates, etc  ..defense would be rocking and rolling...
