The Good, The Bad & The Ugly - Week 6 - Chiefs

With this team there’s always something to fear about every game. For example, they just came off a big win, this next game we have the fear of a let down. Hopefully since it’s a division game that won’t happen, but if this team has proven anything over the years no game is a gimme.

 

There shouldn't be any way to have a letdown against the Bengals. Too much hate in this game.

 

Yeah. The Bengals aren't just any bad team. They're the Bengals. Lots of hate here. I think the Steelers come out and punch these guys in the face and never look back.

 

Don't sleep on the Bengals, they're not a bad team. They were horrific offensively in the first 3 games for no real reason. The talent is there. This is easily the second best in the AFC North and could make a real push for the playoffs. They have looked like a very good team their last 3 games.

 

I agree.

And I’m also worried about injuries and cheap shots. The dirty bengals are always trying their best for that when playing our beloved Steelers.

I don’t think our super Steelers lay two consecutive eggs in front of a Heinz crowd though. At least I hope they don’t.

 

You are correct, but the other team got two extra possessions. Great job by the defense to hold them to a field goal after them shenananigans

 

I'll just use this post to respond to everyone who made a similar claim. Let's just put aside the fact that we're set to battle a linebacker who's a piece of shit and will seemingly at random seek to injure anyone he pleases.

I don't think we'll put up incredible numbers offensively, but I don't see any possible way they can beat our defense. They match up incredibly poorly with our defense all across the board. Their only hope is to rely on their running game to take off, because Andy Dalton won't be effective if he drops back 30+ times.

This should be a low-scoring game by all accounts, but I'm gonna be bold and say we win 34-13. If I'm morbidly wrong, you can stone me afterward, but I predicted (but didn't post) a Jaguars win of 27-14 and did not feel good going into the game. I also predicted a 24-14 win over the Chiefs last week and a 27-24 win over the Ravens.

The x-factor for this game is JuJu Smith-Schuster. Ben needs to give him some looks because the Bengals have the personnel defensively to limit our big names.

 

I like it. Good analysis.


Wild card though: Foster and Gilbert are going to be out it’s looking like.

 

Run that counter with Bell all day on the Bengals...make them stop it.

Steeler TEs typically do well against the Bengals... we'll see. I'm glad they don't have Reggie Nelson anymore....he did quite well against Ben's deep ball tendency

 

He also put out Bell by aiming for his knee.
