The Pittsburgh Steelers did a lot of talking entering the Week 7 Thursday Night Football matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals about how they were built to defend Cincinnati’s high-powered attack led by Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.
In the offseason, the Steelers made every effort to add depth and talent to their secondary, talent that could match up with those two stars.
And yet, in its first matchup against the Bengals, Pittsburgh has no answers for the two receivers as they combined for 22 receptions for 257 yards and two touchdowns in the 33-31 Cincinnati win Thursday night.
