This is one of the Biggest Games of this week. Who Dey??? Bengals in a big game??...... You betcha!! Bot these teams are 6-2 and the winner takes sole ownership of the AFC North.

Have you looked at dem standings!! Bengals are on top!! Big Game, Tough Game too. Bengals are on top by allowing less points against then the Steelers this year. Big Time Ds going in this battle spectacular!!

The Steelers boast a perfect 4-0 home record this year. But, consider that the Bengals boast a perfect 3-0 Record on the road....Hmmmm.

What about those Ravens you say, they are lurking in the weeds, but are in the weeds due to The Bengals beating them twice!!

Big Time, Smashmouth, Trashtalking Game!!

I am glad for the Bengals and Bengals fans...but not this week.

Cincy won't go in and win in Pittsburgh. But buck up Bengals fans...you have Oakland, Cleveland and Detroit to look forward to.....while Pittsburgh still has Baltimore to face, twice.
 
This is a great position for the Bengals to be in. They have a chance to put a choke hold on this division. A win and your 5-0 in division, clinch the best rec there, have the tiebreaker over everyone and in turn gives you what would be a 2 game lead over Pitt.

However, a loss is not a death blow as it would have been in the past. A loss and you are only 1 game back and tied in the divisional loss column with Pitt. Better yet, they have already played and beat Balt twice where the two Pit/Balt games have yet to be played, so Pit drops one of them and you have the tiebreaker in your favor. So that 1 game back is minimized as you have already doen what Pitt needs to still do.

As far as the game, expect a smashmouth, low scoring game that will be closer than the 7 pt spread. Cincy can play with Pit and they have a ton of confidence. Palmer seems to play Pit better on the road as well. Cincy has a team that can stay in and win this game, but the task is a large one.....sweeping Pitt is not somethign that happens very often. If I had to be a non-homer, I'd say Pitt wins a close one, but make no mistake about it, Cincy CAN win this game.
 
This should be a great game. I believe that this is the Bengals chance to grab their own fate by the horns and I don't think this will be taken lightly by the Bengals. This is the first time that you can really say that they have a chance in quite a while and as Miller said a loss here is not a death sentence like it usually is in the second matchup.

It's tough to beat a team like the Ravens twice during the season and that is true of the Steelers also. Beating the Steelers 3 times in a season is an even tougher nut to crack also. I'd love to see them win now but even if they lose there should be a playoff rematch in the offing.
 
No blah blah or yada yada Coach

The Steelers with Mendenhall and Ward will win in a blue collar close one :nod:

Just a little yada yada :grin:
 
Miller hit it on the head. A win would be great, but losing is definitely not the end of the world. As Phicinfan stated, the Bengals, providing they don't play down to their competition, have a cakewalk after this game, while Pittsburgh has a tough stretch
 
Who would have thought this game would feature the top two run defenses in the league at this point.

I must admit I am a big Mendy fan and have always tried to get Ward on my FF teams. The Steelers have a knack lately of just taking a game by the balls and running away with them. :grin:
 
And the Bengals just grabbed control of the division!! What a story, 5-0 in division, 7-2, basically a 2 gm lead on the division! And they are doing it with their DEFENSE!!!

WHO DEY!!

EVERY Bengals fan owes me for this! Had I picked them they would have sucked! :pickle:

:wow: what a great performance. Dominating Defense. They made Ben look like a punching bag.

Next three games I believe are Oakland, Cleveland and Detroit. Could very well be 10-2 and looking at some home field for the playoffs.

Congrats Bengals fans!! :koolaid:
 
Well, since I had to call a game correctly, it sucks that it was this one, and not my cowboys....

Seriously though, did not see Pittsburgh beating the Bengals in this game. Cincy is just playing 100% sound and fundamental football right now. I called for the coach to be fired, but he is getting done right now. When you can lose players, and plug in replacements and not skip a beat, that speaks soundly to good coaching. Are you listening to this Wade? (doubt it).

Bengals are in 100% control of the division now, and it is Ram that will be forced to drink Zima :)
