did Marshall Faulk just say the Bengals were better than the Steelers?

HAHAHAHAHA
Now thats funny

 

wait, oh I don't care

 

That's why he's never right with his predictions!

Bungals have been healthy all season and cant keep up with the Steelers who had players in and out of games all season

 

He might not be wrong.

 

You can make the argument that the Cincinnati Bengals are the best team in the AFC North over the last month. I'm not totally ready to buy that they are, but it's not crazy to say so.

 

One thing the Bengals have done this year that the Steelers have not, they've actually beaten teas they were supposed to beat!

 

If all those power rankings are any indication just about everyone else involved with the NFL media machine believes the same thing.

 

If they are better than the Steelers why do they have the same record as us. Well do our talking at Heinz field on 12/23. We will give them a lose as a Christmas present.

 

This is no laughing matter. The Bengals have beaten the Chargers, Chiefs and Raiders by a combined 53 points. The Steelers lost to both the Chargers and Raiders and barely beat the Chiefs for a point differential of -10 against these below average teams. Pathetic performance from the coaching on down. I would say Marshall Faulk is absolutely right. The Bengals ARE a better team than the Steelers.

 

As of tonight they have a better record than us

 

right he may be right .. we'll see next week in the burg..

HINES

 

Didnt they lose to the Steelers?

 

I guess will see next week, that is if the Steelers decide to show up?

 

two people you don't listen to are Marshall Faulk and Michael Irvin.

 

they are helthier and have ten days to prepare for us , these are the only their advantages

 

With years of higher draft picks than the Steelers you had to figure that sooner or later it would start paying off for both the Bengals and the Browns and I think "Sooner" might have finally arrived. Of the two the Bengals are the bigger threat right now but the Browns also aren't near as bad as their win / loss record would indicate. They've been in just about every game they've lost and played very tough. It would be a major mistake for the Steelers to think either of those teams don't pose a serious threat or to view them as the bumbling losing idiots they've been in the past. The times they are a changing folks.

 

Bengals are playing well lately. Which Steeler Cb will stop AJ Green? The Steelers will need to do much more than just show up to beat them. This matchup could define our season, iff we beat Dallas.

 

So are the Raiders better than the Steelers? How about the Browns?

 

Yeah Im not sure why this is so hard for people to believe actually They have the same record, have beaten several teams that we have lost to- I just dont think its that far fetched.

 

Sure, and we lost to the Browns, Chargers, Raiders, and Titans... Does that mean they're all better teams than us (maybe they are)?


The Bungles were on their way to stepping on our throats until Dalton bounces a ball off his OL helmet that goes right into Woodley's arms. That play turned momentum. That doesn't happen and we might already be out of the playoff picture.

 

Good point. I thought AJ was going to decimate us last time we played, but Ike did a phenomenal job.

 

Unfortunately the Bangles have a better record than us now.

 

I watched the 1st Quarter of the game last night, and they are doing EVERYTHING better than we are doing it.

So yes, right now, at this point, play-wise, attitude wise, coach wise, and record wise... they are better than us.

Steeler for life, but I'm not blind.

 

You're right.

 

essentially not only are they playing better than us but they IMO have a better chance at advancing in the playoffs than we do as the number 6 seed even if they where not better ...

the 6th seed will be forced to travel to Denver as it stands right now , I do not believe we have a snowballs chance in hell beating the Broncos in Denver with our beat up secondary and no Ryan Clark ..

I am sure i will catch hell for saying that here , its the nature of the beast I guess ...

keep in mind just because I love the Steelers does not mean that I drink the Koolaid that many here believe you must drink to be a fan .... I have eyes , I see just fine and I do not see a team that is playing very well or even showing signs that they are capable of playing well right now then you consider the injuries and the fact Ryan Clark does not play in Denver and it is a clear cut recipe for disaster at the hands of Peyton Manning ...

but for those who love that Koolaid I will leave you this
