The Bengals understand what’s at stake Sunday when the team visits Heinz Field. At 6-0, a victory over the Steelers will open a divisional four-game lead in the loss column.
Bengals The Reason To Avoid Big Ben In Fantasy On Sunday
Desperate to send the NFL a message, the Bengals took it a step further on Saturday.
Vontaze Burfict was activated from the PUP list, opening his chances to see the field in Pittsburgh. NFL Media Insider Rand Getlin was optimistic about his chances to return this Sunday.
Turns Out, John Harbaugh Was Right About The Bengals
Burfict underwent microfracture surgery on his knee in 2014. Ten months of rehab later, he’s prepared to make an impact.
In his absence, the Bengals have accumulated 17 sacks and are conceding an average of 20.3 points.
Neither stellar, but Burfict’s return will elevate the unit’s level of play. Couple that with a hobbled Ben Roethlisberger, and the recipe is there for a 7-0 start.
The message will be received loud and clear.
