Don't know if Tomlin has the stones to do that or not, but they've got to get that ship righted one way or another. The Steelers already seen what it was like last year without Big Ben. You would only possibly think about benching him, if there was anyone even worth thinking about on the bench behind him.

With that said the Bengals in two areas we usually struggle at the Steelers and Prime time. Just went out and played great, when they really could have just folded and got pounded like most of us thought. Like it or not the staff deserves credit for that, because they came ready to play. They did all of that with their 3rd string QB, backup RB, backup LT, best WR Boyd only playing 11 snaps, no Atkins or Dunlap, and they went out and physically dominated the Steelers. Then when you look at the big picture. The Bengals have now beaten two playoff teams in the Titans and Steelers. They should have beaten two more playoff teams in the Colts, and Browns (Second game). So maybe they are closer than we think under this staff? Or maybe them winning last night could be the worst thing that could have happened. Either way, last night did buy Taylor another year.

December 26, 20205 yr I have resisted most of these because you know, the Steelers have owned the Bengals but just sing this one.
