8 HRS AGO - The Cincinnati Bengals had high hopes and expectations against the Pittsburgh Steelers. However, despite the adversity (injuries, penalties), they simply can’t get over that hump. You knew at some point it would come to an end. No. That sounds too final. Cincinnati’s comeback ability against adversity, a storyline that’s fueled the Bengals this year, stalled on Sunday. That’s all we mean. The season is clearly alive and the Bengals hold a significant piece of the division pie through six weeks — though even that silver-lining offers minimal comfort against an opponent like Pittsburgh. It’s just a game. Why are you pacing in the living room, or tepidly chomping your fingernails in the stands? This isn’t just any game. We’re not talking about Atlanta or Miami here. This is Steelers week. Sure, the game counts the same as any other. But there’s so much emotional subtext. We’re eating a spoonful of emotions during these meetings. When the Bengals do something great against Collapse

9 HRS AGO - The Steelers were not happy about Burfict’s actions during and after the play on Sunday. I have to confess, I’m tired. I’m tired of watching the Steelers beat the Bengals at their own game. I won’t disagree with what A.J. Green had to say about the players being more frustrated than the fans, but I can’t deny that it’s a nuisance to watch the same game and hear the noise afterward against the same opponent in the same venue. Because if for some you didn’t predict it, linebacker Vontaze Burfict resided in the heads of the Steelers offense and the leader of that offense had some things to say about him after their victory. With that said, Burfict isn’t expected to be suspended, but could be fined for his actions on Sunday against the Steelers. #Bengals oft-suspended LB Vontaze Burfict is not expected to be suspended for his actions on Sunday, but I’m told there are several plays that will be reviewed for a potential fine. Presumably, one is an elbow to @AB84’s head.— Ian Rapoport Collapse

13 HRS AGO - Check in on all the casualties following the physical matchup between the Bengals and Steelers in Week 6. The Bengals and Steelers always seem to wear each other down, and this week’s game seemed to be no different in that respect. Here are the injuries the Bengals sustained during their game against Pittsburgh. Nick Vigil Linebacker Nick Vigil was one of the first players injured for the Bengals. He went to the locker room with a left knee injury, and he was pretty quickly ruled out for the game. That isn’t a great sign for his availability for the short-term and maybe even long-term. He was replaced by a committee that included Vincent Rey, Hardy Nickerson and Jordan Evans. Darqueze Dennard Cornerback Darqueze Dennard was also ruled out with a shoulder injury (and probably a little bit of a hurt pride after JuJu Smith-Schuster took an interception away from him). Dennard was replaced by Tony McRae and rookie Darius Phillips even made an appearance as well. After the game, neither Collapse

17 HRS AGO - Things have not changed enough in the Bengals rivalry against the Steelers, and Carlos Dunlap is not beating around the bush about it. In the Marvin Lewis era, the Bengals have played the Steelers 18 times in Paul Brown Stadium. They’ve beaten them just twice. You can pin the blame regarding their latest 28-21 loss on injuries the defense suffered, or a missed penalty on the Steelers final play of the game. But every team suffers injuries, and since when do the Bengals get favorable calls against their biggest rival? Those ultimately factored into the final score, but as defensive end Carlos Dunlap wisely put it after the game, they weren’t the biggest reasons why the Steelers once again beat them on their home turf. “Insanity is when you keep doing the same thing over and over and expect different results,” Proclaimed Dunlap. “We made some mistakes that we made before. We’ve got to learn from them. Once again.” In Dunlap’s career, he’s witnessed just one home victory against Collapse

1 DAY AGO - Nick Vigil limped off the field during the first quarter. Update: The Bengals are hoping Nick Vigil’s knee injury is just a sprain. Though, not much is known as of now. The same is true of Darqueze Dennard’s shoulder injury. Bengals crossing their fingers Vigil (knee) and Dennard (shoulder) have sprains. Will know more tomorrow— Geoff Hobson (@GeoffHobsonCin) October 15, 2018 The Bengals and Steelers are notorious for banging each other up. The Steelers have suffered a few injuries of their own and the Bengals have their first addition to that list with linebacker Nick Vigil. Vigil has been ruled out of the game with a left knee injury. That’s a pretty bad sign for the Bengals’ linebacker depth. Vigil was hit with a block and went down on a first quarter play. It led to 20 yard James Conner run. Vigil went down and was quickly met by the trainers on the field. He was seen going to the locker room nearly immediately. Vigil was replaced by Vincent Rey initially, but we will likely Collapse

1 DAY AGO - For the fourth straight home game the Bengals lost a fourth-quarter lead to the Steelers, but Sunday’s 28-21 loss when they gave up Pittsburgh wide receiver Antonio Brown’s 31-yard catch-and-run touchdown with 10 seconds left had them climbing the walls with the majority of the 60,594 exiting Paul Brown Stadium. "Insanity,” said Bengals left end Carlos Dunlap. Collapse

1 DAY AGO - Joe Mixon was reportedly involved. After the Bengals dropped a heartbreaker to the Steelers, several players engaged in a postgame skirmish on the field. The Bengals and Steelers started throwing punches after the Steelers won and the game was over— Katherine Terrell (@Kat_Terrell) October 14, 2018 And a little rumble after the game to top it off. Broken up fairly quickly.— Paul Dehner Jr. (@pauldehnerjr) October 14, 2018 Mike Tomlin with the “imma whoop yo ass if you keep fighting” jog toward the Steelers at the very end there.— Colin Dunlap (@colin_dunlap) October 14, 2018 It sounds like Bengals running back Joe Mixon was involved. All reports are Mixon was escorted off the field for illegal behavior #Bengals #SeizeTheDey— Mark Slaughter (@MarkVSlaughter) October 14, 2018 Depending on how serious the fight was, players could be fined and even suspended for what happened, though it’s hard to know right now what exactly went down. The game broadcast did not show Collapse

1 DAY AGO - The Bengals’ defense took a major hit against the Steelers and Cincinnati couldn’t find a way to win. The Steelers came into a misty Cincinnati to try and get their first division win of the season against the AFC North-leading Bengals. Joe Mixon scored a four-yard touchdown with one minute and 21 seconds remaining to give the Bengals their first lead since the first quarter, but it wouldn’t be enough as the Bengals’ banged-up defense (more on that later) couldn’t hold off the Steelers who scored a touchdown with 10 seconds remaining to win the game 28-21. Even though Andy Dalton’s accuracy was potentially better in this game than it had been all season, his receivers were plagued by dropped balls. Stepping in for an injured John Ross, Cody Core had a potential third-down conversion dropped, and even A.J. Green had trouble holding onto the ball at more than one point in the game. Despite spreading the news that William Jackson would not start, the Bengals left Jackson in for most of Collapse
