The win keeps the Steelers in the playoff hunt, while the Bengals struggle to maintain their momentum as the season progresses. Aaron Rodgers led the charge for the Steelers, throwing for 301 yards and connecting with DK Metcalf, who racked up an impressive 132 receiving yards. Joe Burrow kept the Bengals competitive with two touchdown passes, showcasing his ability to respond under pressure.

The Bengals' defense, led by Josh Newton's eight tackles, fought hard but ultimately couldn't contain the Steelers' explosive plays.
