On an ugly day in Pittsburgh, the Pittsburgh Steelers offense scored early and often in their 36-10 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
The Steelers first offensive possession stalled, but on the ensuing punt, Bengals returner Alex Erickson fumbled, and it was recovered by the Steelers, setting them up with a first down at the Bengals 32 yard line. However, the offense could not pick up a first down, and settled for a 41 yard Chris Boswell field goal.
Over the next three possessions, both teams would trade three and out punts.
The Steelers took over offensively with just just over 7 minutes left in the first quarter, set up by a great return.
