PFF believes the Bengals' roster has gotten worse.

This.  Bengals have a good roster.  I'd say top 10 in overall talent.  But only the top 8 advance past the first round of playoffs.  Except for 2013 I think the Bengals produced at their talent level.  Good enough to make the playoffs, but not good enough to win.

I think roster is solid and that all rookies drafted might make the team.

If Geno is back and Andy makes the next step we could win the Super Bowl with this squad.

 No doubt in my mind.

LeBeau was considered far past his sell-by date according to much of Jungle Noise. He got hammered for using out of date schemes with old, wrinkled players that should have retired 5 years ago.

Now, Pittsburgh sucks because they started finding young, upcoming replacements for these same guys that got thrashed for being too old and abused.

JN logic 101. I'm not saying that you did this yourself, but there are/were plenty of Bengals' fans that just refuse to give our division rivals credit no matter what they do.

Steelers are better because their HOF player (Troy is a HOFer) and defensive coach is gone?

Wow, I don't even have to read any further to discredit this source...

not just because it is Coley Harvey, but because PFF doesn't know what it is talking about here.

Not having his head in the game was probably their biggest fault with him.  I think it affected his attitude, and that's where they drew the line.  Good call if that was the case, even withstanding all that Gresh did bring.  

Not going to bash him.
