CINCINNATI -- Here are some thoughts on the Pittsburgh Steelers (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/pit/pittsburgh-steelers)' 27-21 victory (http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/recap?gameId=301108004) over the Cincinnati Bengals (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/cin/cincinnati-bengals):
http://a.espncdn.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/med/trans/cin.gifhttp://a.espncdn.com/i/teamlogos/nfl/med/trans/pit.gifWhat it means: It means the Steelers bounced back from a tough loss to the New Orleans Saints (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/no/new-orleans-saints) to improve to 6-2, and the Bengals' season is over at 2-6. Pittsburgh needed a big win to keep pace with the Baltimore Ravens (http://espn.go.com/nfl/team/_/name/bal/baltimore-ravens) (6-2), who own the head-to-head tiebreaker for first place in the AFC North. Cincinnati, a team which was built to win now, gave a good effort but is one of the NFL's biggest disappointments this year.
What I liked: Pittsburgh's efficiency was impressive for three quarters. The Steelers didn't do too much, but made the big plays when they were there. Receiver Mike Wallace (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=12601) caught a 39-yard touchdown on a well-designed trick play from Antwaan Randle El (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3590). That put Pittsburgh up 27-7 early in the fourth quarter, which was just enough to hold on. For the Bengals, receiver Terrell Owens (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=1056) continues to put up big numbers. He caught 10 passes for 141 yards and two touchdowns...................
