Steelers 23 Bengals 20 (OT)

[16thBBall Fan]

We couldn't get an extra point or a chip shot FG but in the Chiefs and Cardinals game the Chiefs kick rolls his ankle on the kickoff to start the game then hobbles out and hits a 54 yard FG with only one step.

It's a big loss, when you lose within your division.

Agreed losing to a division foe sucks even more. My point is the Bengals and Burrow offensively played about as bad as they could have played. Yet still legit had a chip shot extra point and field goal to win the game, even with how bad they played. Which if their long snapper doesn’t get hurt, they probably make the second one at least. So they should be fine, and plenty of more games now to get back on track.

Randy Bullock strikes again misses a game winning FG and the Giants defeat the Titans 21-20.

That darn Marvin Lewis messes up the clock management again. Oh wait....he's not there! Andy Dalton's four interceptions....oh yeah, he's gone too. Sorry, couldn't help myself.

Clock management is not rocket science

Just as I said in the game thread the NFL league office just confirmed that on the pass to Chase that was ruled out on the 1 and we ended up getting no points out of would have been ruled a touchdown if the Bengals had challenged the play!

As bad as they played, Cincinnati still probably should have won that one.  Harris will be back and Money Mac will be just that again.   I'm not AS worried about the Oline as some people.   New parts that didn't really play in the preseason.  Hopefully they can gel quick before Burrow gets killed.

Yeah those two guys who couldn’t win a playoff game. Compared to the two guys who just took the team to the Super Bowl last year. Marvin and Dalton deserved a lot of the criticism they got for their failures. People were not unfair to them. 

You, as most fans, always blame a coach or QB for a loss(not Burrow) and rave about them in a win. It's about the other staff but more importantly the other 52 players. Players make plays. Everything fell in place last year. Hope they have the same good luck this year. That money paid for free agents on the OL was not too impressive today.....and that's not coaching. Sometimes we get excited about guys other organizations don't seem to mind losing.

Glad I went.

Dog fight tough win Harris out and Watt out.

[mcpapa]

I'll give credit to the Steelers for playing to win late in OT.  They could've taken a couple of knees and played for the tie.

Wouldn't have been the only 20-20 tie today.

That would have been a fun walk out of the stadium.

Always is when you can hear the water running under the bridge. Last year, couldn’t hear it. This year it was much more peaceful.

That’s as satisfying of a win as there’s been in a while. Love to humble the Bengals. 

6 turnovers and 7 sacks but winning on the skin of your teeth is far from humbling a team! This game shouldn’t even been close with how bad the Bengals played!

I think they said Harris is probably done for the season!

The best part about this it’s the first game of the season! The Steelers do have a great defense there is no denying that!
