I don't want to call this a must win, but it's kind of that.

If you look over the remainder of the schedule and you see some of the date complications,

some of the records of the opponents in the way they

mash against each other, and then look at the two meetings with the Bengals.

Good morning to you.

Good.

Wednesday morning.

I'm Dan Kovachovich of D.K. Pittsburgh Sports.

This is Daily Shot of Steelers.

It comes your way bright and early every weekday if you're into hockey and or baseball. I also offer daily shots of penguins and pirates in the same place that you found. This Steelers versus Bengals will be a 102 p.m. kickoff at Paycour Stadium in Cincinnati. That's Sunday, of course.

And in the interim, there won't be another one of these shows.

So I'm going to do the thing that I usually do at the end of the week.

And that's to share with you five things I'd like to see, beginning with Fangs Out.

Now, I know it's been a while since Steelers v. Bengals was the collective massacre.

I don't think would even be an overstatement that those games were as of just a handful of years ago.

I don't know that it needs to be ju-ju standing over Vontes,

but I do feel like there's some fire that needs to come back for this team,

and that's often created in advance of the game by just genuinely disliking the other team.

Yesterday, when asked some of what went wrong in Cleveland,

Mike Tomlin said that it took too long for his guys to get,

and I quote directly here, warmed up in the game against the Browns.

And he did not mean temperature-wise.
