    Compare apples to apples. In the last 4 games the Bengals have given up 154 points, or 38.5 a game, compared to our 26.
    Over the entire season, we've given up 18.7 points per game, compared to their 29.
    You can't compare two things that are fundamentally different.

    Edit- had to check- we've given up 100 points (27, 16, 19, 38) in the last 4 games. 25 points per game. And one of them is an outlier.

    Those teams you mentioned don’t have the wrs or offensive firepower like the Bengals. Burrow has 30tds this season. Bengals problem is defense.

    The Bills have a different type of firepower. I will believe the Steelers would slow down Mahomes when I see it.

    Steelers offense should be able to move the ball on Bills and Chiefs D's... if the O-line is semi-competent like they were vs. Bengals and Ravens.

    The O line is the root of all the Steelers problems, IMO. 3 and outs kill the defense... it's a chain reaction.

    The Bills and Chiefs both have very good defense, so I wouldn't assume that will be easy.

    Agreed, but I think we can still score on them
