The Pittsburgh Steelers hit the road for their second straight AFC North matchup, this time against the Cincinnati Bengals. Short weeks have rarely been kind to Mike Tomlin and the Steelers, and Thursday night road games have often been a nightmare for Pittsburgh. It’s a tale of two teams heading in opposite directions.
The Steelers have won three straight games, while the Bengals have dropped four in a row. With both teams battling for position in a tight division race, this game carries major implications. A Steelers win would strengthen their hold on the AFC North, while a Bengals victory would stop the slide and keep their playoff hopes alive.
