The Steelers fall to 3-7 while the Bengals improve to 6-4.

Kenny Pickett and the Steelers’ offense struggled in the second half after leading 20-17 at halftime.

The Steelers offense couldn’t take advantage of strong field position after T.J. Watt’s leaping interception at the line of scrimmage and after forcing a three and out in the fourth quarter.

Najee Harris had two rushing touchdowns on 20 carries for 90 yards.

George Pickens had four catches for 83 yards and a touchdown. Pickens dropped would should have been a touchdown late in the fourth quarter. He also got ejected for a penalty on the Steelers’ onside kick attempt.

Bnegals quarterback Joe Burrow played excellent football despite throwing two interceptions. Running back Samaje Perine had three receiving touchdowns.
