CINCINNATI -- Are we seeing the more mature version of the Cincinnati Bengals and Pittsburgh Steelers?
The AFC North rivals have made nary a peep at each other this week, online or otherwise, despite preparing to face each other on Sunday.
Last year was a different story. Players from both teams didn't make a secret of their disdain for each other, and their public feuds circulated constantly on social media.
The animosity crossed a line when Steelers linebacker Vince Williams issued a threat toward Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict.
