Bengals vs. Steelers: A Rivalry Rekindled Under the Thursday LightsThe Pittsburgh Steelers (4-1) travel to Paycor Stadium to face the Cincinnati Bengals (2-4) in a Week 7 AFC North clash that carries the weight of divisional stakes and a storied history. Dubbed the "Icy Hot Bowl" for its matchup of quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers (41) and Joe Flacco (40)—only the third time since 1970 that two 40-plus starters square off—this Thursday Night Football tilt highlights contrasting trajectories. Pittsburgh aims to solidify its perch atop the North with a third straight win, while Cincinnati desperately seeks to halt a four-game skid that began with Joe Burrow's season-altering turf toe injury in Week 2. nbcsports.com +1 At the heart of this fixture is one of the NFL's most physical rivalries, dating back to the 1970 AFL-NFL merger when both teams entered the AFC Central. The Steelers hold a commanding 71-40 all-time edge, including sweeps in the 1970s Steel Curtain era, where they limited Cincinnati to 17 points or fewer in 10 of 12 meetings. nytimes.com +1 Playoff encounters amplify the tension: Pittsburgh's 31-17 Wild Card triumph in 2005 and a chaotic 18-16 victory in 2015, marred by Vontaze Burfict's helmet-to-helmet hit on Antonio Brown and ensuing brawl, underscore the bad blood. fanduel.com Recent years have evened the ledger, with the teams splitting the last 10 regular-season games 5-5, including Cincinnati's 19-17 upset in January 2025 that dashed Pittsburgh's playoff hopes. nytimes.com These matchups often devolve into trench warfare, with hard hits and penalties defining the narrative—expect no less under the prime-time glare, where Mike Tomlin's Steelers are 0-6 on TNF road games against divisional foes since 2009. apnews.com Defensively, T.J. Watt (3.5 sacks) and Minkah Fitzpatrick lead a disruption machine tied for sixth in red-zone stops, forcing turnovers at a clip that could exploit Flacco's inexperience in Zac Taylor's scheme. scoresandstats.com Cincinnati's offense, once a Burrow-fueled juggernaut, now leans on Flacco, acquired from Cleveland just days ago. In his Bengals debut—a 27-18 loss at Green Bay—he posted 219 yards and two touchdowns turnover-free, but the unit's red-zone inefficiency (bottom-third league-wide) persists. covers.com Ja'Marr Chase thrives sans Burrow, hauling in 42 passes for 468 yards and four scores (fifth in NFL receiving), while Tee Higgins provides the complementary threat. nytimes.com Yet the run game falters without Zack Moss, forcing Chase Brown into a pass-catching role that could wear thin against Pittsburgh's front seven. Defensively, Trey Hendrickson's pressure (team-high sacks) returns, bolstered by rookie Shemar Stewart's anticipated debut after an ankle absence, but gaps loom with Cam Taylor-Britt sidelined as a healthy scratch and tight ends Mike Gesicki (pectoral) and Tanner Hudson (concussion) questionable. covers.com +1 Injuries compound the drama. Pittsburgh lists 10 on the report, including safety Miles Killebrew (knee, out) and Calvin Austin III (shoulder, inactive), thinning special teams and depth. steelerswire.usatoday.com +1 Cincinnati activates guard Lucas Patrick from IR (calf) and WR Charlie Jones (ribs, questionable but active), but defensive tackle Jordan Jefferson's elevation signals lineup flux. nytimes.com Both squads don alternate looks: Bengals in all-white "White Bengal" threads (4-1 all-time therein), Steelers in classic black-and-gold. nytimes.com Statistically, Pittsburgh edges efficiency metrics—top-10 in points allowed (20.2 per game) versus Cincinnati's middling 23.8 allowed—while the over has hit in four of the Bengals' last five. foxsports.com Yet Thursday's short week favors the home side, where Cincinnati's crowd could amplify Flacco's poise against a Steelers secondary vulnerable to big plays (Carson Wentz torched them for 350 yards in Week 4). covers.com This isn't just a game; it's a referendum on resilience—Rodgers' veteran guile versus Flacco's late-career grit, in a rivalry where every snap echoes decades of divisional fury.(Word count: 498) Podcast Links: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
