I am very excited to watch this weekend’s matchup between the Bengals and the Steelers.

I know the Bengals were pretty beat up the last time they played the Steelers.  But I really believe the Bengals can pull off the win this weekend.

Why?

1. Carson Palmer has found his niche all year.  I think he will step up even more this weekend.
2. Chad Johnson.  By far the best WR in the NFL.
3. Rudi Johnson/Chris Perry.  These two running backs are extrodinary when it comes to the tough yards.
4. The Defense.  Where did this defensive unit come from????  I cannot believe how good the defense has become this year.  And they are only getting better each week.

Tony’s prediction:  CIN 24 – PITT 17
