Big game for both teams today. Â Here is what the Steelers need to do to get the victory today.
Keys to Victory:
Throw, Throw and Throw some more: Â The Bengals are without their top 2 cornerbacks. Â Leon Hall is out for the year and Nate Clements is inactive today. Â That leaves Kelly Jennings and Pacman Jones. Â The Steelers should throw, throw and throw some more. Â That leaves the number 5 corner on the guy in the slot. Â Sanders and Brown should get to take advantage of the Bengals today. Â Look for at least one of them to have a big game today.
Finish the Job: Â The Steelers jumped out to 14-0 lead in the last game against the Bengals and then went into coast mode. Â They need to put their foot on the gas and pound the Bengals all the way home. Â If we can get ahead we need to stay ahead. Â The Bengals have been hanging around in every game and coming close or pulling out the victory in most. Â The Steelers can not let off.

Bengals have been banged up in secondary
The Bengals' secondary has been adjusting to the loss of Leon Hall for the past two games. They might be in bigger trouble on Sunday for the rematch in Pittsburgh.
Cornerback Nate Clements tweaked his hamstring during Thursday's practice and was limited. Adam Jones just got back to 100 percent after being hampered by hamstring and groin injuries.
Depending on Clements&...

Preview - Cincinnati at Pittsburgh
GAME SNAPSHOT
KICKOFF: Sunday, 1 p.m. ET
GAMEDATE: 12411
SURFACE: Natural grass
PREDICTION: Bengals 23-20
KEYS TO THE GAME: The Bengals lost top CB Leon Hall in the first meeting, a 24-17 Steelers win on Nov. 13, and will be taxed by three- and four-receiver sets. However, the Steelers' offensive line lacks great athleticism, making it difficult to gain yards on the ground outside...

Mistake-prone Bengals fall to Steelers 35-7
Cincinnati wide receiver A.J. Green grew so antsy waiting for Andy Dalton to snap the ball early in the Bengals' game against Pittsburgh, the star rookie flinched.
Sunday Prediction: No CB's, Weakened Pass Rush = Tough to Win
When Steelers have the ball:The DL needs to get to the college rapist and prevent those extended plays that Ben kills the Bengals with. Even though the Steelers have one of the worse OL's in the NFL, without Dunlap in the lineup again, it is difficult to slow down Ben.
Now that Ben will have the ability to extend plays more frequnetly, Brown and Sanders should cut up the weakenedÂ...

What was that Vanessa Williams song?
It said something about "saving the best for last" or something like that.
The proverbial ship had long sailed on several would-be fantasy heroes as plug-and-play starters. In fact, two of the top performers in Week 13 probably spent Sunday afternoon vexing fantasy owners from "Bench" slots. It was a nice reminder of the...
Report card: Steelers game
PASS OFFENSE (C-)
Other than the first drive and the touchdown drive, there really wasn’t much else to say. A.J. Green had a solid game (6 catches, 87 yards, TD) and Jermaine Gresham made two nice catches but when your others receivers account for only reception and its tee off time on Andy Dalton in the third quarter, its not a good day. Andrew Whitworth had his worst game since...

By: Rich Bergeron
The AFC North is one of the tightest divisons in the NFL this season with three teams at the top with enough time and talent to snatch the lead. The Baltimore Ravens and Pittsburgh Steelers (8-3) go into this week tied for the division’s top spot, but the Steelers will have to fight for it this week. If they lose to the 7-4 Bengals and the Ravens lose to the 4...

The Steelers dominated in all three phases to crush the Bengals 35-7 yesterday.Â
This is what you like to see in December:Â an offense that goes 4-for-4 in the red zone, a defense that gets to the quarterback and takes the ball away, and special teams that stop the opposing team from scoring while also scoring points themselves.
After an ugly win in Kansas City, you expected the...
