Cincinnati’s TNF stunner against the Steelers sends fans into a frenzy

ByNBAUSA



And the winner the first Ici Hot pot is… the Cincinnati Bengals? Despite all the hype surrounding the “Unc” Bowl between the Bengals and the Pittsburgh Steelers, many still won the Thursday Night Football game.

However, in a stunning twist, it was the Bengals who came out on top against the Steelers. Joe Flacco and Aaron Rodgers had a KB duel for years, but in the end, Flacco sealed the win by connecting with Ty Higgins late in the game to set up the game-winning field goal.

Fans were naturally shocked to see this. After the struggles this team has faced over the past month, no one expected the Bengals to beat the division leaders in the Steelers. Especially not with the old Flac who looked awful before he was traded to Cincinnati.

Others hilariously pointed out that even at 41, Flacco is still tormenting the Steelers while rocking an AFC North jersey.

The biggest reason for the Bengals’ victory is the connection between Flacco and Ja’Marr Chase. Chase had a season-high 16 receptions for 161 yards and one touchdown. When Cincinnati needed something to get going on offense, Flacco targeted a receiver and he hit.

The win has now single-handedly revived the Bengals’ chances of making it this season even without Joe Barrow.

in the end, Mike Tomlin’s concern about the Browns trading Flacco to the Bengals it seems to be fully confirmed now, after the veteran completely took over and handed the Steelers their second loss of the season.

The Bengals will now have an extra long week to prepare for their Week 8 matchup against the New York Jets. After that, they face the Chicago Bears in their final game before the bye week. After losing Barrow to injury early in the season, Cincinnati has a chance to finish the first half of the season with a record above .500.
