They also put 43 points on the 49ers defense the Bengals scored 24 on, and 45 on the Colts the Bengals got whipped by last wild card, and held the Cardinals to 13 points while the Bengals let them score 34. Meanwhile the Bengals dropped 37 on the Browns while the Steelers only scored 28.
You can do that nonstop, with all teams. This isn't college football, so stop trying to make college football level comparisons. They scored 10 against the Bengals the first time, 33 against them the second time. So what conclusion can you pull from that? It's any given week in the NFL with any team.
Are the Steelers a worse team? Absolutely true. Is Marvin Lewis 0-6 in the playoffs, with a 2-12 record at home against the Steelers? Also true. It's hard to be up in arms about being a 2.5 point underdog. If you want home field advantage, you need to stop being a team's ***** in your home field and the points will reflect it. Harsh, but true.
