A very winnable game at home against a very beatable team. Nothing stands out about them besides the Burrow/Chase connection. There's Vonn Bell in the secondary and the Bengals D is pretty okay stopping the run. We've all had our ideas this week on what is wrong with the Steelers Offense. Cinci will duplicate the exact same scheme what the Raiders and Bills have done on Defense and Canada, Ben, whomever will have to figure out a way to beat it.
24-13 Steelers.
I guess it depends on the health of some of the defense, foremost. And secondly, can Canada draw up an NFL game plan?
If those two check the box, then I’ll go 24-16 Steelers.
Making win predictions hasn't gone well for me so far, so: Bengals 23, Steelers 17 :chuckle:
We should be able to get a W here. A lot of injuries still, but if we can get Watt and Bush back, our defense should be able to hold. I keep reading the OL is pissed off after last game, hopefully they come out and open up some holes for the running game this week. 19-10 Steelers (I have Boz as my fantasy kicker, so I want 4 FG from him lol)
Was just thinking the same…Quote:

I could see Bengals jumping out to 14 point lead, Steelers come back and win 27-17
If our offense scored 27 points i'd shit lolQuote:

pic six or special teams TD.Quote:

Got to start to see improvement from the o line as well
I'm keeping the faith Steelers 24-10.
Bengals 26-13
Ben will be mad with all the talk of him being done (Mad Ben is a good Ben - like a mad Kobe was a good Kobe). Line will play better.
Watt, Bush and Haden will stifle the bengals O
31-13 Steelers

With Watt and Highsmith out. I’ll up my Bengals score to 38-13.
We'll probably see a whole lot of Jamir Jones and maybe Derek Tuszka.Quote:

Ingram and Taco?
What I find entertaining in the Game Day Thread is folks predict the Steelers are going to lose the game, but then bitch the entire game when they fulfil their prediction. :chuckle:
Yeah…I’m constantly pessimistic. When I’m optimistic, they make me look foolish. Lol.Quote:

It's good they are resting Watt. There is a long season ahead.

Ouch. Toast.
If we lose to the Bengals let's shoot for 1-16 and a front row seat for Spencer Rattler.
