Should be 2 losses coming up for the Bengals. They’re favored by 1 point at home against the Stillers, but I don’t know, I think Pittsburgh wins that one. Then Cincy has to go to KC.

I think the Bengals can beat the Steelers if they keep their composure and just play ball. Mixon is back and our defense keeps creating crucial turnovers.

KC I am not so sure about, but the Bengals are 3rd in the league in PPG at 31.

I am actually more worried about the two games we have with the Browns than the Steelers.
