Sunday's game against the Bengals...

So in reality... We dont Blitz and Sack and we dont score at will.
When was the last time this team was a power house ...
When was the last time this team was looked at as almost unbeatable...??

How many sacks has this team had in 2 years total? probably less than the top sacker in the league this year.

We're far from scary! I blame the new rules some, this team appears to be afraid to HIT! I freaking hate, hate our defensive play calling..

I cant see anyway possible that the Steelers will not be up for this game and not come out desperate and with a purpose which is exactly what they didnt do the last home game against the Chargers last week. The bottom line is Mike Tomlin had better have this team ready to play this Sunday with all that is on the line. The Bengals are a pretty good team no doubt but if the Steelers show up and play like they are capable of in this game there is no reason in the world that they shouldnt beat the Bengals. I think the only way the Steelers lose this game is once again going to be the reason they have been losing games all season they will make mistakes,turn the ball over, not take advantage of opportunities and simply beat themselves. But make no mistake about it this I believe is a huge huge game for Mike Tomlin and he had better find a way to win this game against the Bengals and also the game the following week against the Browns or he is going to be facing the kind of heat and pressure that he has yet to see in this town...

This team hasn't been ready to play all season. I don't expect much from them for this game either. Maybe they get a lucky bounce to eek out a win. I doubt it though and they remind me of the current Lakers team. Talented with no heart.

Kind of hard to prepare players when they have folded in the tent since being Tebowed.

The bengals will come out swinging in this game and if the steelers aren't ready it could mean a playoff spot on the couch!

This game is the Bengal's "Super Bowl". They have to have this win and they will be going "all out" to win it.

I hate to call this game. Cincy wins it. Nothin left in the tank.

I will be hoping for a Pittsburgh win but... I see the Bengals winning this game straight up without the points. It is one of those 'every dog has his day' contests wherein Cincy will draw upon determination and adversity from the dark days of their past futile attempts to win in Pittsburgh. It will be a hard fought game but the Steelers don't have the 'right stuff' (not sure what to call it) this season.
