The Steelers dropped a heartbreaker in Cincinnati, falling 33–31 to the Bengals in a Thursday Night Football shootout that exposed cracks on both sides of the ball.

Despite a classic Aaron Rodgers performance, including a late touchdown strike to Pat Freiermuth that gave Pittsburgh a brief lead with just over two minutes remaining, the Steelers still fell as costly interceptions and a defense that couldn’t contain Joe Flacco or Ja’Marr Chase proved too much to overcome.

Joe and Brian break down the key moments, standout performances, and what this loss means heading into next week as the Steelers continue searching for answers in AFC North Thursday road games.
