The Pittsburgh Steelers have been as up and down as it gets in 2025. They started extremely strong with a 4-1 record, looking destined to win the division. But inconsistency on both sides of the ball have plagued them since, and they now sit 5-4 as they get ready to face the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
In its recent skid, the defense has looked brutal at times. But the unit has also shown an ability to rebound. The Steelers lost in ugly fashion to Green Bay, then came back to beat first-seed Indianapolis at home the next week.
