Gonna go out on a limb and say we shock the league and start 1-0. This team isn't as bad as it's made out to be and the Bengals are next in line for a SB hangover

I'll go the other way and say we lose to the Bengals on the road and start 0-1.
our OL does not inspire me with confidence, would love to be wrong though.
I'm with Hawaiin ... we get our asses handed to us the first week on the road, lots of sacks, confused OL and probably a pick/fumble out of Trubisky. The sky will be falling and there will be threads to fire Tomlin (okay that's probably a stretch until we hit 1-4). Our D will keep it close but tire in the later quarters and we lose 31-9 behind three Boswell FG's.
The steelers had 2 ugly loss vs bengals last year especially the 2nd game when it was 31-3 at halftime
We will have an idea if the steelers are better or not, especially on offense....I know they won against the bills last year in week 1 but they didn't even have 60 yards on offense in the first half. ..They were lucky it was only 10-0 at halftime
Agreed, our Defense will keep us in this game and alot of games. On offense we've got the receivers/TE and RB's (harris and warren), But the QB is average and the OL is worse. We didn't exactly light it up during the preseason. I don't think we get on a roll this season until our line plays better and KP get's the nod.
Depends more on the Bengals, I think. I think they should run, run, and run some more. Watt might kill Burrow if they come out and try to throw it a lot. If they run the ball and control the clock they win. If they rely on the passing game we stand a chance. A good chance actually.
Bengals by a couple of scores.
TJ Watt breaks Burrow's collarbone and the Steelers go on to win 27-23.
I expect the steelers to be very competitive in this game
Interesting that Zack Taylor already has the same number of wins at home against the steelers in 3 games that Marvin Lewis had in 18 games!
Cincinnati media is having a hella good time talking about Trubisky starting. Would love to see it blow up in their faces.

Is Heyward on the old man day off/no practice???

Great news!
This is why 'Game Time Decision' exists.
