Steelers at Bengals how to watch: TV, streaming, odds, prediction as Cincinnati looks to sweep Pittsburgh

Published

on


It’s been 31 years since the Cincinnati Bengals won three straight games over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Boomer Esiason was the Bengals’ quarterback, Chuck Noll was the Steelers’ coach, and the hit Christmas movie “Home Alone” had just hit the theaters. 

A Bengals win on Sunday would do more than repeat history. A Cincy win over the Steelers would create a considerable gap between the two teams in the AFC North division race as well as the wild-card race. At 6-4, the Bengals are currently on the inside in the AFC playoff picture, while the Steelers, who are 5-4-1 after dropping last week’s game to the Chargers, are currently on the outside looking in. And considering what opponents lie ahead, the Steelers are in need of a win on Sunday to improve their odds at making the playoffs for a second consecutive season. 

We’ll preview the game along with giving our prediction for Sunday’s outcome. Here’s how you can follow the action in real time.

When the Steelers have the ball

Pittsburgh’s offense, despite scoring a season-high 37 points in last Sunday’s loss in Los Angeles, has some serious concerns. The offensive line has taken steps back in recent weeks, specifically when it comes to opening up holes for rookie running back Najee Harris. The unit is currently 27th in the NFL in rushing and 29th in yards per carry average. Pittsburgh’s line has its work cut out for it Sunday against a Cincinnati defense that is sixth in the NFL in rushing yards allowed. Harris won’t have to run wild, but he will have to provide steady gains in order to keep the Bengals’ defense honest. The Steelers can’t get away from the running game, even if it’s tough sledding early on. 

An encouraging facet of Pittsburgh’s offense has been the elevated play of quarterback Ben Roethlisberger, who over his last five games has thrown nine touchdowns and no interceptions. The Steelers will have to do a good job protecting Roethlisberger, who was taken down four times and hit on numerous other occasions during Pittsburgh’s Week 3 loss to Cincinnati. A key matchup will be Steelers offensive tackles Dan Moore Jr. and Chukwuma Okorafor against Bengals defensive ends Sam Hubbard and Trey Hendrickson. Both Hubbard and Hendrickson had sacks in Cincinnati’s 24-10 win over Pittsburgh back in Week 3. 

When the Bengals have the ball 

Cincinnati has enjoyed a solid season from second-year quarterback Joe Burrow, who went 14 of 18 with two touchdown passes to rookie phenom Ja’Marr Chase during Cincinnati’s Week 3 win over Pittsburgh. For the only time this season, Burrow was not sacked during that game; a big reason why was the absence of Steelers pass rushers T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. Watt is working this way back from multiple injuries that left him out of last Sunday’s loss to the Chargers. The Steelers are also hoping to have back cornerback Joe Haden and will have safety Minkah Fitzpatrick back for Sunday’s game. If Watt is anywhere close to full strength, rest assured that Burrow will not leave Sunday’s game unscathed. More pressure may also lead to a turnover from Burrow, who has thrown at least one interception in nine of Cincinnati’s first 11 games.  

The Bengals’ offense has also enjoyed a strong campaign from running back Joe Mixon, who has amassed 953 all-purpose yards and 11 touchdowns this season. A two-time 1,000-yard rusher, Mixon played a key role in Cincinnati’s Week 3 win over the Steelers, rushing for 90 yards on 18 carries. He could be in for an even bigger game against Pittsburgh’s considerably thin defensive line. The onus of stopping Mixon will fall on Cam Heyward, who despite consistent double-teams is having an All-Pro level season.

Pittsburgh Steelers

The Bengals are favored and for good reason. They have a significant advantage on the defensive line, and Burrow has already proven that he can get the better of Pittsburgh’s defense. But the Steelers have historically been able to rise to the occasion in similar situations under head coach Mike Tomlin, while the Bengals have yet to prove that they can win a big game late in the season. Pittsburgh will likely mimic the game plan they took with them to Cleveland back in Week 8, when they shut down Cleveland’s offense while leaning on a balanced offensive attack to get a much-needed road victory. Expect a similar result Sunday in Cincinnati. 

Score: Steelers 20, Bengals 17

Flames Notebook: Coronato’s hat trick caps confidence-boosting win vs. Canucks

Published

on


CALGARY — Plus-five, four points, three goals, two new hats and one hell of a way to open a pre-season for Matt Coronato.

Okay, so the number of caps thrown by fans needed work, but everything else at the Dome in Sunday’s preseason opener went perfectly in a 10-0 win over Vancouver Coronato will never forget.

“It feels good,” smiled the 20-year-old Harvard hotshot who is essentially a lock to open the season in the Flames’ top six.

“When you play with good players it makes the game easier.” 

If the pre-season is about building confidence and chemistry, the Calgary Flames couldn’t have been happier with their start Sunday, especially Coronato.

As he demonstrated against a skeleton squad of Canucks, his success has plenty to do with his world-class release.

“His shot is one of the best shots I’ve seen,” said Huberdeau of his new locker mate.

“He’s a quiet guy — I think he was focussing. I didn’t really talk to him, I didn’t want to disturb him. But I guess it worked out, so I won’t talk to him.”

Much-needed laughs all around for a Flames club hellbent on wiping the slate clean from last year, when Coronato made his NHL debut on the final night.

In his pre-season debut, his finish was the talk of the town, with his first goal coming in tight on the power play, when his redirect of a point shot led to a rebound he roofed while falling to the ice.

He followed it up a period later by one-timing a turnover in the slot, and finishing another beauty in the third, shortly after setting up Ben Jones with a nifty steal from behind the net.

A real confidence booster for the youngster who fit in well on the second line with Nazem Kadri and Adam Ruzicka.

All told the trio had 10 points.

“Some guys have a gift that they just know how to hit a puck and I think he’s one of them,” said coach Ryan Huska.

“When you can shoot it hard like he can, that makes a goal scorer for sure.”

A look at the other standouts on the night:

Adam Ruzicka 

The organization is going to give him every opportunity to prove the stretch in which he scored 20 points in 24 games wasn’t a fluke.

They know the big man can shield the puck, create offence and be an impact player, but he needs to do it with more regularity.

He opened the preseason on Kadri’s left side and will stay there as a top-sixer as long as he remains engaged and effective.

On this night he finished with three assists, which included a nifty setup on Connor Zary’s goal on the second power play unit.

“This is a moment for him where he’s got to grab hold of it,” said Huska.

“He’s going to get an opportunity. 

“We’ve had a lot of conversations over the summer with him about having that opportunity, but he has to really take it on himself.

“He needs to decide where he wants to fit and where he wants to be, and that’s now what it’s going to come down to. When you look at him, you’re like, ‘If this guy can figure it out and be consistent with the way he plays the game…’”

Jonathan Huberdeau 

A tic-tac-toe drag and release had the crowd buzzing early – one of two top-shelf snipes the two-time 30-goal scorer opened the pre-season with.

It came on the power play when he corralled a Kadri pass, made a nifty toe drag and roofed it, showing signs the swagger he was missing last year is back. 

His first shift back after a knee-on-knee hit with Matt Irwin sent him to the room, he took another Kadri pass and roofed it.

“I guess I’m a shooter now,” he chuckled. 

“I heard it a lot last year from the stands, so I had to shoot. It felt great. Good for the confidence.”

Jordan Oesterle

The Flames’ only free agent signing of the summer played on a pairing with Chris Tanev and promptly opened preseason scoring with a shot from the point that bounced off the skates of two Canucks defenders on its way into the net.

Welcome to Calgary.

He later ripped one off the crossbar from a tight angle during a penalty kill.

Oesterle will be battling Dennis Gilbert for the roster spot left open if Oliver Kylington doesn’t return.

Huska pointed out his performance was under the radar and that, “it looked like him and (Tanev) had played together all season.”

Nazem Kadri 

Involved, engaged — exactly what Flames fans craved the second half of the season from him.

A filthy backhanded roof-job in tight, two assists, two penalties and he drew one as well.

All good signs.

Yegor Sharangovich

Didn’t look out of place on the top line with Huberdeau and Lindholm, showing good speed and creativity. He was the one who started the beauty, three-way passing play that finished with Huberdeau’s first on the power play.

Advertisement

He was also the first one over the boards with Lindholm on every penalty kill.

A solid start. 

Jacob Markstrom

Highlighted by a glove snare on Nils Aman and sliding pad save on Jack Studnicka, Markstrom looked large and in charge while making saves on all 20 shots he faced. He gave way to Oscar Dansk in the third.

Dennis Gilbert

Advertisement

Takes exception to a hit on him and promptly fights Matt Irwin.

He’s in the mix with Oesterle to be Kylington’s replacement and it’s his toughness that will likely land him plenty of NHL starts this season.

Left the game in the second after falling awkwardly and smashing his head on the boards.

Skated off with help after lying motionless for a few minutes – a likely concussion isn’t the best way to open a season.

“He’s okay, that’s the good news,” reported Huska.

Dillon Dube

Coming off his third-straight title as the fittest Flame in testing, he made good on his second line assignment alongside Kadri and Ruzicka, piling up three assists.
