I gotta feeling this is a lower scoring but very close game. Hienz field is an home field advantage, Skins 16, Steelers 20.

You mean the same secondary that held AJ Green to 1 catch for 8 yds? Although I am glad Polamalu is not going to be playing for them.

Polamalu out is very significant. Ike Taylor did a great job against AJ Green and Pittsburg D did a great job actually against the entire Cincy offense.

WE WIN!

I don't know why, how or what the score will be, but...

WE WIN!

Maybe just because collectively the team and coaching staff will rally around the great performance that RGIII displayed last week to put the team in position to win on more than one occasion; and because individually everyone will step up their game a notch or two.

Tough place to go on the road to get a win against a physical Pittsburgh team, but...

WE WIN!

I think this game comes down to how many times Kyle throws a INT or fumbles the ball. If we can keep his turnovers down, we'll win.

Correct. Turnovers are a direct result of bad play calling

Bengals Steelers is a divisional game and may not be the best barometer for what to expect from the Steelers. I don't see why we can't put up points like the Titans and Raiders did. We're top 5 in scoring and should expect to move the ball on anyone.
