Pitt over Cincy (from a Bengals' Fan)

[pegasis0066]

I am a huge Cincy fan, but it ain't their year. Things to consider:

- Pitt has won several consecutive games (3 or 4) at Cincy - cover most, if not all
- Pitt coming off bad game/loss at Denver
- Cincy coming off come from behind win against lowly Jets - they think things are fixed and back on track - wrong!
- Cincy can't stop the run and pretty bad against the pass - even made Chad Pennington look good
- Cincy's pass protection has been suspect this year - will be more exposed against typically great Dick LeBeau blitz packages

I just don't see Cincy being able to play with Pitt in this game.

I agree

Browns fan here but I live in Cincinnati and listen to sports talk radio constantly and keep up on the Bengals and the division in general.

I just do not see the Steelers coming off of a loss to Denver and losing a divisional game. They are just to strong for a depleted Bengals defense.

Also no Willie Anderson for Cincy. They won't be able to run the ball.

Also liking Pitt-3, winning divisional game here..
