Wow, come to think of it, Cincy is playing better, I can't look at them as a push over any more...so this might not be such a upset.

You might be right. They were close last week, and if Maddoz goes down, Pittsburgh's in trouble. Seems like Tommy's one hit away from being hospitalized.

Cincy always plays Pittsburgh good, and they're due, and Pitt isn't all they're made out to be.

Kansas City showed us that Pittsburgh really doesn't have that defense unit everyone was expecting.

Damn straight.. For my fantasy team I picked up the steelers for my Defensive team.. Luckly I was able to add Buffalo's Defense after week 1.. I really thought the Steelers defense would be a very good unit.. So far they are very week..

Well, I've been subjected to Bengals football for about 13 years. I'de go with the Steelers. True, they put up numbers against Oakland...minus Porter and Rod Woodson. It was a typical Bengal performance...if a play works keep it up until you fumble or get picked. It was...slant run slant fly slant slant fly run run slant slant all day long. Finally, Buchanon stepped in front of one of the slants and it was off to the races. Also Gannon took a good whack in the 1st Q...I think he heard birdies the rest of the game.

For my upset, I'll take the Bills over the Phins - they are favored aren't they?

or the Gmen over the Redskins (I think the redskins are favored).

Just heard this on my radio. Bengals sit down Chad Johnson as game starter in favor of waiver-wire guy Lawrence Hamilton, for "undisclosed reasons" . That leaves them with #3 pick Kelley Washington. ..head-case guy. They only have dressed 4 wide-outs all season, with T.J. Houshmandzadeh injured and having cut Danny Farmer.

The radio folks haven't elaborated other than adding "disciplinary action". Not starting, of course, doesn't mean not playing, considering the Bengal's lack of WR depth (and at about every other position).

Anytime Pittsburgh gets whooped, I'm happy...Almost as happy as when the Phins take it on the chin...like tonight!

Among the 1 PM games the favorite beat the spread in every game. That means Cincy lost. So did the Saints. I picked the Saints and Pittsburgh. I was 5-2 among the 1 PM games in our Yahoo pickem group, and my 3 underdog picks for the 4 PM games are all ahead, thouhg not necessarily by a lot. I have SF picked over Cleveland (SF is the favorite). SF is ahead but just hanging on 3-0 so far.
