8. Cincinnati Bengals @ Pittsburgh Steelers, Week 7, 1:00 p.m. ET
Things typically heat up to the boiling point whenever these two AFC North teams take field. Just check in with the Steelers’ top receiver.
“The Bengals had created some animosity toward us. That’s the fun part of this game. … Anytime someone’s getting used to getting beat a lot, they have to find something to get them going,” said Antonio Brown, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
That sounds like game-on right there. The Bengals have not had much success in beating the Steelers at Heinz Field, having only done so three times since 2009.
Perhaps things might go differently this tilt around. But however the game shakes out, tempers are sure to flare. Hopefully nobody resorts to dirty plays this time around.
