    Guys its great we had over 400 yards of passing and 500 yards of offense and put up 44 points yesterday. I hate to be the Debbie Downer but this Bengals defense is historically bad. We need to put this into context. If we can do 350 plus yards and put up 27 pts plus over the rest of the season then I will be happy.

    The play calling successfully predicted the Cincy blitz and countered with short passses to a undermanned coverage. a player stated that. I think it was Pickens.

    A week ago, many said that (despite the Bengals D being weak) we couldn't possibly keep up with their offense.

    Now, it's "but their D was weak so don't get excited."

    Pick a lane.

    I know, I know. Perhaps I just don’t want to junco it or get my hopes up to high. Believe me I am happy and I hope it continues.

    I loved seeing the short passing game. I have been screaming for it all year. If we can continue to develop that part of the offense I think that really makes us hard to beat.

    I was the one that said "they Cannot score" just a couple weeks ago. I am happy they proved me wrong.

    Let's keep this up and go strong into the playoffs...Go Steelers!

    The Bungles have 4 losses this season scoring at least 33 points. That is very very bad defense.

    Finally the Steelers found a way to beat a team with a losing record. It's a start. :lolol:

    Lots of dump offs to RB’s that resulted in 4-7 yard gains, which keep the offense in 2nd or 3rd and short, or keep drives alive.

    Man, if the Bengals had a better brain trust they could have dominated the AFCN for years. Joe B. is a great QB. He needs Marvin Lewis;)

    I stayed in the lane of "any Steelers win is a win worth celebrating" personally.

    I’m just saying I would prefer to see him in there more than Najee.

    you and me both. at least a more balanced approach.

    he is explosive. Najee is just solid.

    Najee misses alot of cutbacks. He hit one in this last game and had a nice gain. But alot of times he just runs right up the back of the blockers and pushes the pile when the cut back was there. Najee has been good this year, I just think the upside is better with Warren. However Najee has two strengths that Warren doesn’t have and thats ball security and health. So having them both is great, I would just like to see the work load evenly split more.

    I don't understand how you could watch that Bengals game and think Harris needed to play less. I can't say I liked seeing Patterson get more touches than Warren, but Harris was by far the best back for the Steelers against the Bengals.
