Phew, that was needed!

That's all from the dreadful play calling for the first Steelers series of the half. Too many throws, not enough runs.

Should but will? Jets... Jags... Pats... Broncos...

Let's beat the Chargers first.

What a catch from Pickens! The Steelers are getting very lucky here. Bizarre play calling.

And people say Josh flops. Hendrickson seemed to go down very easily there.

Why have the Steelers stopped running the ball?

Jason Bell on Sky in the UK saying it wasn't DPI on Porter.

It should; Bengals got lucky earlier and unlucky there.

What kind of play call was that?!

That was a bad throw to Irwin. A lot of confidence in their offense. 4th and Inches and burning a time out.

This drive is concerning - the Bengals starting to go through the Steelers defense quite easily. Need another turnover.

Always feel nervous about hubris. The Steelers still have to see this out, and the Bills have to do their job.

To try and keep the Bills out? No good if the Bills win out and the Dolphins lose another. The Bills will then take the second seed over the Chiefs.

Hendrickson off the field injured.

Does Browning think the Bengals are in the green?

Cynically I think that would have been called had the Bengals been 14-0 up.

That's DPI. No question. Lucky Bengals.

Let's just say any NFC win over the AFC would be useful right now - until the Super Bowl if the Bills get there!

The Steelers were up by 13 against the Colts last week IIRC. The Bengals were down something like 17-3 going into the fourth. Long way to go but looking good so far.

Don't think so, not at this stage. The Chiefs have the Raiders and Chargers left, excluding the Bengals. In all likelihood that would see them with eleven victories; defeat against the Bengals would see them at 11-6 which would clinch the division for them anyway. The more the Bengals lose the better, unless we really think the Bills will win out and the Dolphins will drop another. I'd prefer to be making the play offs a certainty rather than going all in on a higher seeding right now.

Only so many times can you risk that kind of throw. Eventually it'll backfire.

Sorry but that was an utter fluke.

"It was a beautiful job by Browning in the pocket..." His O Line gave him about an hour.

That's a nice start.
