While the Pittsburgh Steelers have now won three games in a row, and four of their last five, the reality is that two of the teams that they have beaten are among the worst in the NFL—and the Los Angeles Chargers have not been particularly great, either.
The Cincinnati Bengals are 0-8, still searching for their first win, and have benched Pro Bowl quarterback Andy Dalton, turning to rookie 24-year-old fourth-round pick Ryan Finley to take over the position. The Miami Dolphins just got their first win of the season—against a hapless New York Jets team who has had one good game this season.
