I disagree, we just need to get everyone healthy and back from suspension and I believe we can still make a run at it. Getting Caleb Miller, Rashad Jeanty, Levi Jones (I believe he's coming back this week), and maybe Perry all back this week should help us a lot.

The two games against the Steelers that we have left are the only two games that I can't see us as a clear favorite in.

I wouldn't say they are the only two games we'll be favored to lose. I would be shocked if the Ravens weren't favored to beat us at Baltimore, and San Fran might be favored at home, too. Then again, I would've called us a clear favorite against the Chiefs and Browns as well (before the season started, anyway) and we know how those games turned out.

Mind you, I am not giving up on my team, but I can definitely say that things are not looking good. The way the season is going, a 9-7 record might be the best we Bengals fans could hope for, which will probably not get them into the playoffs anyway.
