It's not gonna matter. This Eli Rogers they have is tearing it up tonight. They haven't missed a beat without Bryant and Bell. The Bengals better get their shit together this week.

Watching the Pitt game so far, their defense looks sound IMHO.
I don't have a good feeling about Sunday. Ben, Brown, and Williams look solid.
Like I said, I hope I'm wrong and end up having to listen to jeremydc saying "I told you so!"
BTW, I saw, early on, the scumbag Mitchell with some trash talking and some physicality with Desean Jackson.

My hope is that Jon Gruden doesn't call the game. I pretty sure he wants to have Big Ben's children

Because they played in a terrible division. Which they won with 9 wins.
Glad AJ doesn't act like an idiot when he scores. That dance Brown just did was ridiculous.

Their O looks unstoppable. They apparently don't need Bryant or Bell.
Does AB have fly paper on his hands. Good grief.
Their D isn't looking bad either and that is usually our equalizer on them
Their best against our best = dang good game !!

Agreed. No class.

Giants won the SB, backing into the playoffs with a 9-7 record, counting on many other teams to lose.
I do agree with you on the TD celebration foolishness.
I will take the new Jeremy Hill, Green, Eifert, Dalton, and Bernard TD celebrations all day as opposed to the garbage.

So disappointed in him as announcer. Much better coach than he is an announcer.
He was the same way with Eli Manning last year. At least Roth is a lot more consistent than Eli Manning.

One thing I will say, Brown did very little against the Bengals in the playoff game. Assume Jones was covering??

He did fairly little against us all last season. We held him to 1 TD in 3 games (AJ had 3), and he only went over 100 yards once (AJ twice).
I'm more worried about stopping Williams.

Don't give them the deep ball and Ben will make mistakes. He'll fumble or throw an interception or two. Oline stay strong and Andy stay sharp and this game is very manageable.

If the steelers defensive game plan is similar next week it will not work against Dalton. He will pick that zone apart.
Kirk cousins sucks.

The Redskins have been beating themselves all night with dumb penalties and sloppy play. If we play sharp we can beat these guys.

Why do people keep saying steelers defense looks good tonight? They look terrible. Can't tackle guys wide open. If I'm bengals offense just give Dalton time and he will pick them apart

The Steelers will always be good as long as Big Jen is around. I hate the guy with a passion, but that may have been one of the best franchise draft picks of all time. When he retires that team is going to look completely different.
