Winners and losers from the Pittsburgh Steelers 34-11 win against the Cincinnati Bengals Saturday evening.
WINNERS
Patrick Peterson/Eric Rowe – A motley crew of Steelers’ safeties making impact plays. Rowe didn’t have the foot speed to stop an 80-yard score by Bengals WR Tee Higgins, though it would be unfair to blame Rowe for allowing the catch, but the Steelers’ secondary made impact plays missing during the team’s three-game losing streak.
Peterson had the first pick, taking advantage of a lollipop by QB Jake Browning, who might have tried and failed to throw the ball away.
