The Cincinnati Bengals faced another disappointing defeat, losing 44-38 to the Pittsburgh Steelers, which likely seals their fate of missing the playoffs for a second consecutive year.
Despite Joe Burrow's impressive performance with 309 passing yards and three touchdowns, the team's defense faltered again, allowing 34 or more points in six games this season. Bengals coach Zac Taylor emphasized the need for better tackling and defensive stops.
Burrow acknowledged the team's struggles with turnovers, stating that improvement is essential as they reflect on a challenging season.
