So should I, as a Bengals fan, be hoping that our players are taking precautionary measures as well? I'm not quite getting your logic. The Steelers are the dirtier team, that's just historical fact. Look at your crooked Center who should have been suspended for the head shot he gave well after a play against Denver...how he escapes with only a 20K fine is beyond anyone's belief. I'm not cheering for "inevitable cheap shots," but you better believe Vontaze and company are going to be physical and punch you in the mouth...

What is unfortunate is that both teams are absolutely loaded with talent but Injuries have played a rather large role for both (more so for you guys). It'll be interesting to see what happens next year and as Big Ben gets older. Seems lately that he hasn't had the typical mobile ability...Not sure if that is still lingering from his injury, or if he has just taken an absolute beating over the last dozen years or so and is getting old like the rest of us...

So who gets penalized for a cheap shot first? Not a phantom unnecessary roughness made because the refs are trying to make sure they maintain control after the last game between the two - I mean an actual 'what the **** is that' cheap shot.
History states the Steelers.

Of course a bengal fan would say that, because Burfict can dive into Ben's knee after the ball is thrown and you'll still insist it shouldn't have been a penalty. And every tackle/hit/mere contact with another player done by a Steeler is dirty to you guys, so it's not much a prediction.

Just off the top of my head, I can think of several that were waaaaaay worse. AFCCG losses in '94, '97, '01, and '04. SB losses in '95 and '10. And, of course, Tebow. It would be a disappointing loss (they all are). But, crushing? No way. We didn't win the division, our defense is weak, and even though we've dealt with it fairly well, injuries are still a concern (especially with Williams). So, while I think a win is very doable, By no means do I have sky high expectations, despite the media's designation of the Steelers as "the team no one wants to play". That's more an attempt to entice viewership than it is an actual endorsement of the Steelers as a juggernaut. They're good, but by no means are they great. At this point, a trip to the SB, while not impossible, would be a pleasant surprise more than it is an expectation. You, on the other hand, have an enormous emotional investment in this one. A chance to end a decades long playoff victory drought, with the bonus that it could happen against your hated rival. That is one sweet prize to long for .... And one tremendous emptiness to feel if it doesn't happen. So, good luck on Saturday, and remember - it's just a game.

I suggest you put a skirt on your center. No wait, then Ben would call over a couple of guys pre-game and violate him in a restroom stall while his protectors laugh and look the other way. Classy bunch Big Jen and his OL. 2024 may go on record as one of most underperforming teams in Bengal history. Bengal's FO has major work to do on defensive side of the ball. I say tag and trade Tee Higgins in 2025 to start with the rebuild.

Not counting on a Bengals win even with Williams out. They are just not January ready. It cant be Marvin Lewis. One would think they would win one game in the postseason.
