Cincy at Pitt

With more weather passing thru Pitt tonight and the conition the field was in last week what is this game going to be like tonight?

I just checked the weather and it is about to start raining in Pittsburgh. Guessing some of this weather has been in Ohio today?

I took the Bengals +7 and the under. Hoping to see a game like the Dolphin, Steeler game last week.

That's OK. They'll just lay some new turf down and everything will be OK.

Re: Cincy at Pitt

I just hope Lewis doesn't run the ball all day, I think the Bengals would be much more successful with the short pass game in this weather.

The Bengals, by all rights, should win this game.

A 40-0 Bengal win is fine by me. But if they start pouring it on ala New England I am going to have a probem.

I say 3 - 2 Bengals. Palmer will hand on to Rudi in the endzone, and he'll trip.

From what I've seen from the Bengals this season, I'd have a tough time saying they should beat anybody - much less at a division rival with an 8-3 record.

I say the Bengals win 4-3 in the most baseballest score in NFL history.

Wouldn't 4-2 be better? No points the traditional way.

7-0 Bengals already. Very impressive drive to start the game. However, they've put together a great first drive in just about every game they played this year. Let's see if the offense can continue to produce.

Re: Cincy at Pitt

So far, the conditions appear to be favoring the Bengals quite a bit. I didn't have much hope for this game initially, but the Roethlisberger apparently can't throw a wet football and the Steelers can't move the ball. Palmer's having some problems, but nothing near like Roethlisberger that I've seen.

As far as I'm concerned, the sloppier the conditions get, the better for the Bengals.
