As I said earlier, I think the Bengals did get a slight edge in the schedule, but this is purely a subjective thing based on how I think the teams will do this year. Technically, the Steelers got the easier two teams (the ones who finished 3rd like them), and the Bengals got the 2nd place teams. However, I think it worked out in the Bengals' favor. I would play KC over Denver (who I think can challenge SD for that division), and Tennessee over Jacksonville any day.

Even if you think that it worked in the Bengals favor, I still don't think it's enough to even make note of.

lol no man, im not. I actually hate and despise the Bengals (just part of being a Steelers fan, lol). Just ask Fritz. However, I respect guys like you and Fritz for sticking through your teams when they were seriously the worst franchise in the NFL. I respect anybody that sticks with their team, Bengals or not. But its all in fun. I just cant wait for friggin football season man, seriously!

Can't believe I'm saying this about a Steelers fan, but I respect your opinions and enjoy our football debates (and with everybody else). I think I'm pretty much over the whole Kimo deal (as much as I can be, which just means it doesn't keep me up all night anymore )

Man, in case you weren't watching, the Colts blew that little cliche out of the water last year by winning the Super Bowl with a defense that was average at best (and that wasn't often). Just goes to show that a win is a win, whether it's 10-6 or 45-38. They all count the same.

Yeah, but their defense really stepped it up late in the playoffs.
