The Steelers are inching their way back in it.

They have four field goals on the day and are within one score. The Bengals lead, 20-12, in the third quarter.

The Bengals did not punt in the first half. At 20-9, the Steelers faced their largest halftime deficit of the season.

The Bengals have two rushing touchdowns, one by Andy Dalton and one by Jeremy Hill. Obviously, the Steelers will need some stops and some touchdowns to get back in it.

If the Bengals win and the Ravens win, the Ravens and Steelers will both be 8-6 heading into their game in Pittsburgh next Sunday.
