As strange as it is for the Cincinnati Bengals to be preparing for a game against the Pittsburgh Steelers in which Ben Roethlisberger isn’t even a member of the organization, it’s equally strange for the Steelers to be preparing for a game against the Bengals while riding a three-game losing streak against them.
Indeed, Pittsburgh is 0-3 against the defending AFC North champions, going back to the second matchup of the 2020 season, prior to which they held an 11-game winning streak dating back to 2015. A lot has changed since then, including Cincinnati stocking up on offensive talent.
