The Steelers pretty much dominated every aspect of the game getting the better of the Bengals in first downs (26-19), third-down efficiency (58-50 percent), total yards (481-275), yards per play (7.2-4.7), rushing yards (112-62), passing yards (369-229) and time of possession (35-25).

It's because of the field position that the game was close.
Our offense was almost always at the 25 yard line or worse and the TD of the Bengals at the end of the first half was already in midfield.
The field position for the steelers has been atrocious this year (31st on offense, 24th on defense)
Edit: if my memory is good, the first TD of the bengals, they were also already in midfield or close to that
Yep - first Bengals TD was after Berry's 36 yard punt to Bengals 46
Other keys to keeping it close were the combo platter of special teams breakdown on kickoff/bad defense for end of first half Bengals TD and bad second half red zone offense, featuring not scoring on first and goal from the one
He cries like Pacman Jones does.
yeah ok man

To be fair, he is a better CB than Artie Burns.
/that's about it, tho'

Said the team that's been beaten 7 times in a row.
The head to head matchup since he's been with the Bengals: Steelers 11 Bengals 3. I checked.
