Pittsburgh vs. Cincinnati predications
This is a big game in the ever entertaining afc north. Both of these teams are capable of getting on roles where they cant be stopped. Unfortunately, they can both be maddeningly inconsistent as well. With the Bengals, it always starts and ends with Andy Dalton, doesnt it? When he is on you this team looks like they are poised for a deep run. Whens hes off, you wonder if this team is due for a brief stint in the playoffs (as has been custom). Its a shame because the bengals are a pretty deep and talented team (arguably up there for most talented)
On the flip side we've got pittsburgh. This is a team, that despite some inconsistencies here and there I trust....offensively. Ben has been throwing it around the yard, Antonio brown is one of the nfls best and leveon bell is a beast etc., etc. This team will only go as far as its defence, most specifically its secondary will take them. Beyond Ike Taylor and an aging Troy P. this is a real concern for this team.
My pick: these games are always hard fought and the rivalry is real. I can see dalton having a big game against the listless secondary in Pitt. Ill say Bengals by a feild goal in the type of early 20's (scoring wise) games we have become accustomed to
