    I am taking the over, unless the Steelers have cleared up their run
    defense he may run wild. Remember he is a pretty big back coming at you.

    Under for me. Pittsburgh is at home and the defense should perform better at stopping the run. I do not see Mixon doing so well here.


    Pittsburgh has allowed over 100 yards in Team Rushing in the previous two. They have not allowed a Running Back to eclipse that figure. Besides, Mixon's best runs come from the outside. Pittsburgh has done okay in that regard.


    The issue is YPC each team gains on us. Over 5 yards if I recall. I think that stops this week come Monday.

    I will also take the under. I think he may get to 100 total rushing + receiving years though.

    If he goes for 100 I don't see how the Steelers win. Seems the days of a featured back are history (except for a few teams). JuJu made a remark, "pass to the sticks" in an after game interview and it stuck with me. That's the mentality now.... pass.

    Running = lost art.

    In saying that, my guess is Mixon doesn't got to the century mark.

    This. And keep in mind that the alternative to Mixon is Dalton so it becomes a little easier to focus on Mixon.

    As long as they give the ball to Mixon on third down he'll get 100 cause our boys seem to suck stopping 3rd downs.

    He'll go over, they still have communication issues in the secondary so the safeties will play back and LBers will be dropping in coverage.

    Keep in mind that in our first three games, we played against a few pretty good QB's. This week, not so much.

    Mixon rushing for 100+ yards has the probability of 1. It will happen.

    Under. Mixon hasn't gotten off to a good start this season, plus he is coming off an ankle injury.

    I agree with Elvis, he'll have around 100 with catches and rushing combined though.

    Over. I bet he gets 130+ yards rushing.

    I forgot who the Bengals TE is...and I bet the Steelers do too. I predict he is left uncovered multiple times and scores a TD and has 80+ yards receiving.

    Would be shocked if Eifert saw more than 3 targets all game. It's not their script.

    They kept Kittle in check, 6 receptions for 57 yards. Eifert isn't what he once was, when he was able to stay on the field that is.

    Far more worried about their wideouts.

    Good assessment and I agree. Most times when I am frustrated its the rb running up the middle. I dont get how that could happen with the outfit we have on defense.

    I'd say if you count Mixon and Gio, yes, they get over 100 yards.

    If Mixon gets 100, the Steelers likely lose. But I doubt he does. He might get 100 total for rushing/recieving but that probably iffy as well.

    I expect the Steelers to win at home, though it might be ugly.

    Eifert & the run game worries me. Unless your talking about holding a lead late in the 4th.
