PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) -- All things considered, it's easy to say "Same Old Steelers" after Sunday's unimpressive and, effectively, season-killing performance, against the Bengals. But according to safety Ryan Clark, the problem was, it wasn't the same old Steelers.
PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) -- The Steelers' secondary played a more inspired brand of football, led by seven tackles, three passes defended, and two interceptions by defensive back Cortez Allen, but it didn't keep their playoff hopes alive Sunday against Cincinnati.
PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) -- The conflict and subsequent apology from Big Ben to Todd Haley was well documented leading up to Sunday's game against the visiting Bengals, and head coach Mike Tomlin was asked if there was too much of a disconnect lately between QB and OC after his Steelers were knocked out of playoff contention.
PITTSBURGH (93-7 THE FAN) -- Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger wasn't great after his return from injury, and he wasn't great when he had to be, either. He completed just half his throws, one of which was a damaging pick-six to Leon Hall early against the Bengals.
PITTSBURGH (AP) --Andy Dalton hit A.J. Green for a 21-yard pass in the final minutes to set up Josh Brown's 43-yard field goal with 4 seconds left to lift the Bengals to a 13-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. Cincinnati (9-6) clinched a second straight playoff berth after beating the Steelers (7-8) for the first time since 2009. Pittsburgh (7-8) was eliminated from postseason contention.
Sunday's loss to the Cincinnati Bengals has left many Steelers fans upset and looking forward to the off-season.
