I like how the Steelers are play 4 quarters of football now, unlike the first of the year.

 

The Bengals have not arrived at this point offensively.

Not at all. The Bengals are starting to get a little thin with some key injuries (Odom, Henry and Rivers). I am with spindoc... it's a field goal game barring the turnovers. Both teams have shown the ability to create them though this year. Should be a good one, I'm glad we are relevant again.

The way the Oline for Cincy has played lately, I'd guess that this game is a field goal game either way. Unless there are multiple turnovers, I don't think that this game is gonna be 2 touchdown margin for either. Of course, the Steelers have had an anemic kick coverage this year. That could turn up as an achilles heel in this one.

 

The Bengals' return unit has left a lot to be desired too...

I don't even see this one as being close. Pitt by 21 and they may be head hunting Carson Palmer.

And I still can't figure out how they made it to the title game last year.

 

The Ratbirds beat Denver in Baltimore. The Steelers won in Denver, which is perhaps the biggest home-field advantage in the league. Huge difference.

 

Because Tennessee gift wrapped a trip for them by shooting themselves in the head after running out of feet...that's how.

Is this game bigger for Cincinnati or Pittsburgh?

 

If the Bengals win, in essence they'll have a two game lead in the division with the head-to-head tie-break in their favor.

 

On the other hand, the Bengals are still "proving" themselves, and to a large degree Pittsburgh is THE measuring stick for Cincinnati. A win for Cincinnati in the Steel City would be huge for their confidence going forward.

 

What say you? Bigger game for the Bengals or Steelers?

I guess Ben Roethlisberger should be worried about Robert Geathers as well. Perhaps even more so after he tried to decapitate Trent Green.

I don't agree with that comment either, but don't make it a Steeler thing. Many on here has boosted that they would love to see someone hurt Hines Ward...

 

I would love to see Hines Ward leveled. I'll stop short of wishing he gets hurt with just getting the wind knocked out of him.

I'm still not entirely sure that hit was dirty. I wouldn't have been happy if it was my QB, that's for sure.

The 2nd one is in slow, slow, extra slow motion.

OK, works for me. But if Geathers' hit wasn't, neither was the shot on CP.

But, since the individual hits aren't related, it doesn't work like that. :lol:

 

I've never said Kimo's hit was dirty. It's illegal now, but not dirty. You're doing whatever you can to get to the quarterback.

 

It sucks, but it's football for cryin' out loud!

I would join a Hines Ward knocking defensive players on their rear club, which would also get more action... :thumb:

He got someone Monday night. It was in the very top of the picture, I didn't catch who he drilled but he caught someone with his guard down.
