Bengals/Steelers Game Thread

[Moose Of Woe]

The AFC right now....

 

Man, just when I thought Cincy looked like a good team.

Good? I thought they were the best team in the AFC!

 

Still a lot of football to play, but they're looking mighty sloppy. Then again even good teams suck it up now and then.

They are Bipolar. 

Or ~ they are two different teams.   Completely and totally different at home vs. on the Road.

Same here. If we get 3 seed, we can avoid the Chiefs. If we get 2 seed, we get momentum, and the bye. Although I don't think a bye would be good for us.

Agree with you there, my friend. I think the last few years the teams who won didn't get the bye.

[BlueCollarColts]

Ok, we need if Cincy loses, we need them to get upset at home by either Baltimore or Minnesota... Hopefully AP will be back by then

They havn't lost a game at home this year...

If the Bengals lose tonight, and the Ravens and Dolphins win out, Cincy will miss the playoffs.

Baltimore could easily break that. The Ravens are more than capable of stealing that game from Cincinnati, and in doing so put the Bengals in danger of being a wildcard.

Just took a look at the Chiefs blog. Apparently they think we're going to be playing 2nd stringers next week because we have locked up the division, and they don't think we can move up a seed.

Fans are dumb sometimes. The Chiefs will know exactly whats at stake and its a must win for them, as they still have a shot at winning the west.

They have a shot at first seed if they win the division. I wouldn't mind because most first seed teams don't make have that much success. That being said, how much of our playbook we show them depends on if the Bengals lose or win.

yea well they still have to play Baltimore at home, which will be a big game because if Baltimore wins next week (I think they will), it will be a game for them to make the playoffs. So I think they can do it

they have a long shot, but a shot none the less

They are not going to win their Division...  

[IndyScribe]

Probably not because I doubt the Broncos will lose to the Texans or the next two games.

Ya Steelers still suck I would laugh if they blew this lead I don't count on it happening but it would be funny.

[kjyb]

   go colts lol ima troll     

[Fx Stryker]

Why was that not a safety?

[snkdy]

I'm going to laugh if the Steelers somehow blow this.

[IndyScribe]

So will I.

[danlhart87]

hope not we need steelers to win

[snkdy]

hope not we need steelers to win

 

No, I know we do. It's just that they're blowing a 30-7 lead...

[danlhart87]

30-20 now but Steelers have it

[danlhart87]

man what a great week

colts win and broncos pats and bengals lose

[Buck Showalter]

man what a great week

colts win and broncos pats and bengals lose

Yeah, Colts have a good game, shed the slow start mantra, control the entire game, and the other AFC division leaders crap the bed...

Good weekend, all about getting hot at the right time!!!

[danlhart87]

like i said earlier its anybody's game

[MaoBerry]

Man we really need the ravens to win next week. Maybe we should be extra nice to oldcrow this week.

But the other part is beating the Chiefs at their place. Not likely.... but possible I guess

[amfootball]

To say I dislike the Steelers with a passion is an understatement but psyched they pulled out the win. Denver back at 1, Pats at 2 and now the Colts have a real chance at 3. I think Cincy loses to Ravens last game of season as well. They are just not a team that can win the big games. Not yet anyways,

[Freenyfan102]

Where the refs in this game

[Gramz]

Bengals punter may have broken neck, refs may have to explain another blunder
