In the fifth divisional game of the season, the Steelers look to secure the AFC North title with a win in Cincinnati.
“We’re back in the AFC North, divisional play. If you want to dominate the NFL and be one of the teams in contention to dominate the NFL, it starts first and foremost with divisional play,” Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said in his weekly press conference.
“It’s about sharpening our sword for the battle that lies ahead. We expect to get the very best from Cincinnati.”
While the Steelers didn’t get the very best from the Bengals in Week 10, the Steelers are a far different team than five weeks ago. And as we’ve seen from teams like the Dallas Cowboys in Week 9 and the Baltimore Ravens practice squad in Week 12, even subpar talent will produce their very best versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.
