I don't agree because the Bengals were an experienced team that made it to the Super Bowl the year before. The Bengals were killing us at home before game got cancelled because of what happened to Demar. The Steelers are more in line like the Packers, a fringe playoff team that just made it in, the Bengals with a healthy Burrow were a legit contender.
This team cannot afford a slow start and allow the Steelers to feel like they can win, we need to put them away early.
