So, that Bengals-Steelers rematch will be loaded with tension

Assuming the Pittsburgh Steelers are in the playoff mix and the Cincinnati Bengals are still cruising, the matchup will pair winning performances with serious venom.

The Bengals on Monday were still salty about safety Mike Mitchell's open-field hit on receiver Marvin Jones, which Steelers players appeared to celebrate after the fact. The Steelers, who lost 16-10 on Sunday, were already fired up that, a few plays earlier in the second quarter, Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict celebrated the sideline tackle that tore Le'Veon Bell's right MCL.
