Cincinnati Bengals: 3 bold predictions for Week 12 versus Steelers
Don’t expect poetry in Week 12 between the Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals. In fact, this may be a grind it out kind of game that is slow and plodding through three quarters. Neither team has its best talent on the field, and in this game, that lack of talent shows.
Cincinnati enters Sunday’s game at 0-10, while the Steelers are hanging in at 5-5. A loss by the Steelers is devastating to postseason hopes, while for the Bengals, a No.1 pick hangs in the balance. In fact, it’s a growing chorus of Cincinnati fans who would not mind that the losing roll on through Week 12 and beyond.
For the Bengals to finally get a win, a few things have to break just right. For instance, Rudolph can’t begin to “get it” as an NFL quarterback. Additionally, coaching experience could play a significant role on Sunday. Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor has not been very good, and if he has to make the right call on Sunday that means a win or a loss, I might be inclined to say the Bengals lose.
