AFC North showdown for the 3rd time this season. Bring on the unnecessary roughness and chippy post play scrapping:feedme:




steelers-at-bengals-generic-graphic.jpg










The well-advertised backstory is grim for the Bengals when it comes to January football.

Four consecutive postseason berths have led to four straight playoff losses for a Marvin Lewis-led team desperately looking to flip the script on Saturday night. "It's time to right the ship," Lewis told reporters. "You know, exorcism."

That's what makes this matchup tricky for Cincinnati. After roaring out to an 8-0 start and winning the AFC North weeks ago, the Bengals are 4-4 over their last eight games and facing a team that has largely owned them inside the division for years. Steelers coach Mike Tomlin holds a 13-5 advantage in games against Lewis, with Pittsburgh winning four of the last five.

The Steelers are seen by many as the favorite because they'll roll out Ben Roethlisberger, while the Bengals are saddled with AJ McCarron. It's a no-brainer, right? Wrong. These Bengals bring a defense to the table that ranks second in the NFL in points allowed (17.4), a mere tenth of a point behind The Legion of Boom.

Besides, Big Ben has been all over the map of late, tossing two-plus picks in three-straight games for the first time since 2006. The turnovers are concerning, especially with running back DeAngelo Williams day-to-day with an ankle sprain. Roethlisberger, though, has the ability to explode at any time -- making this offense very tough to prepare for.

Weather will more than likely play a big factor in Saturday’s AFC Wild Card game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinatti Bengals, according to the current forecast as it’s likely to be wet and cold.

When the two teams take the field Saturday night at Paul Brown Stadium in Cincinatti, weather.com is forecasting it to be cloudy with periods of rain with thunder possibly with a low temperature of 38 degrees. Additionally, winds are expected to be out of the south at 10-20 mph. The rain chance Saturday night is currently 100%.

It’s hard to say which team, if any, will have a decisive advantage Saturday night in the rainy and wet conditions but being as this game will mark the first career playoff start for Bengals quarterback A.J. McCarron, one would think that inclement weather won’t make things any easier for him.

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, however, has played several games in the cold and rain during his career and while I don’t yet have those stats for you as to how he’s performed in those games, at least he has experience in those kind of games in addition to playing in the playoffs.

The running games for both teams will likely be an even bigger key Saturday night in the rain and that edge might go to the Bengals if Steelers starting running back DeAngelo Williams is unable to play due to a right foot injury that he suffered this past Sunday.
