A false start on Ted Karras makes it 1st and 15.

Joe Burrow finds Tee Higgins for 13 yards. Burrow then goes play action and turns and runs for 8 to move the chains.

Good hit from Patrick Queen on a run stuff for 3 yards to follow. #Steelers

CC, do you know why Holcombe replaced Wilson for a bit in the 1st half?
Christopher Carter
2:55
Probably because they're getting gashed on the ground.
David Chestnut
2:55
this bend dont break aint it
Sean
2:55
Too much on the ground
Myron’s Ghost
2:55
Need a stop here.
Robert Layne
2:55
Just whatever Burrow wants to do….
AdamNY
2:55
We can’t just keep sitting in zone - our pass rush isn’t there, and Burrow can do this all day
Jim
2:55
Really getting annoyed by this zone. It is way too conservative

if Steelers lose here, they are staring at 1-3 after going to Cleveland on Thursday
Sean
2:55
they love the middle of the field
Robert Layne
2:55
Steeler D pudding soft in the middle
Jim
2:55
Defenses have to be aggressive to be successful
Myron’s Ghost
2:55
9 just exploiting the free space in the middle.
AdamNY
2:55
Hehe that was my guess - curious if there may have been something else

3rd and 2. Joe Burrow gets a sidecar, Payton Wilson reads the QB option and forces Burrow to chuck it into the ground. Good job by the LB to stay home and kill the play.

4th and 2. Back shoulder, perfect timing to Ja'Marr Chase on Asante Samuel Jr. for 21 yards. #Steelers

We are not collapsing the pocket in the middle

Once again. Where is the holding on the Bengals?!!!

2:57
DL absolute F so far
Scott
2:57
Are Harmon and Black getting anywhere out there?
Neal
2:57
Wow a slight rush
AdamNY
2:57
Play man on 4th down?
Myron’s Ghost
2:57
if 9 doesn’t want to slide, ruin mom!
Turk in MD
2:57
Burrow is locked in.  Brutal
JDT
2:57
Indefensible pass there
Neal
2:58
Getting destroyed on the ground is what they do every week
Christopher Carter
2:59
Patrick Queen jumps a pass over the middle and gets a breakup. Looked like he was a step and a half from the INT.

After a 6-yard run by Chase Brown, 3rd and 4.

Joe Burrow gets 12 personnel. False start on Amarius Mims. #Steelers
Neal
2:59
Samuel is getting desroyed
K
2:59
Burrow is thrashing us.
Ken
2:59
What is wrong with the defense this game?  Samuel looked bad on that 4th down conversion.
Hillbilly
2:59
Samuel was getting picked on badly. In fact you might be able to say he’s getting punked.
JeffB
2:59
Burrow’s accuracy is unworldly rt now.
Sean
2:59
Get off the field D
Scott
2:59
I thought Harmon was supposed to make a difference.
Myron’s Ghost
2:59
Samuel overmatched against Chase
AdamNY
2:59
There’s an 8 yard gain for Chase Brown any time he wants it
Pittaz
2:59
I’m reading all week about how great Samuels is playing and all I see are completions.
Sean
2:59
stay on the edge high Smith he ran right where you weren’t

3rd and 9. Joe Burrow tries to force it to Tee Higgins, but Jamel Dean breaks it up and the #Steelers get the stop to force a field goal.
3:02
FIELD GOAL. Evan McPherson good from 38.

Joe Burrow had the offense moving, but an offensive penalty gave the defense a favorable spot and Jamel Dean made a nice play.

Drive: 12 plays, 65 yards, 6:38.

Bengals 20, #Steelers 17. Q3, 8:22.
