Rekrutierungen » CINCINNATI (AP) — No matter how high the stakes

http://www.patriotslockerroom.com/authentic-john-hannah-jersey , how big the deficit or how late in the game, Ben Roethlisberger and his tough-to-catch playmakers always find a way to leave the Bengals wondering what just happened.Chris Boswell kicked a field goal on the final play shortly after Antonio Brown caught a 6-yard touchdown pass — taking a hit to the head while landing in the end zone — and the Pittsburgh Steelers pulled off another improbable comeback against the stunned Bengals, rallying for a 23-20 victory Monday night.Down 17-0 early, the Steelers (10-2) extended their best start since 2004 in a physical game with a couple frightening injuries. Brown’s touchdown tied it at 20 with 3:51 to go — safety George Iloka was penalized for hitting him in the head after the catch. Boswell won it with 38-yard field goal, his second straight winner in the closing seconds.Both teams know the script.“It sort of reminded me of the playoff game — what was it, two years ago?” Steelers defensive end Cameron Heyward said. “It’s sort of the best reality TV show out there — better than the Kardashians.”Two years ago, the Steelers came to Paul Brown Stadium and pulled out an improbable 18-16 playoff win set up by Cincinnati’s fumble and personal fouls on Vontaze Burfict and Adam “Pacman” Jones. Boswell won that one with a 35-yard kick with 14 seconds left.Desperate for a win to salvage their playoff hopes, the Bengals (5-7) still couldn’t find a way to beat their Ohio River rival, not even after getting off to the big early lead. They’ve dropped six straight and nine of 10 against Pittsburgh.“Very disappointing,” said Bengals receiver A.J. Green, who had two touchdown catches in the first half. “We had it.”Nope. They never do, not against the Steelers.“We’ve got a no-blink group,” coach Mike Tomlin said. “We’ve been in this situation before, and in this stadium before.”The hard-hitting game was full of personal fouls, penalties and injuries that could have a long-term effect White Julian Edelman Jerseys , especially for the AFC North leaders.Pittsburgh lost leading tackler Ryan Shazier to a back injury in the first quarter. The linebacker was taken off the field on a cart and taken to a hospital for evaluation. Tomlin had no details about his injury or his prognosis after the game. ESPN reported that Tomlin went to the hospital after the game to check on Shazier.“Ryan is one of the biggest players on this defense,” linebacker Vince Williams said. “When we need a big play, he’s one of the guys we look to. It’s going to be tough.”Bengals linebacker Vontaze Burfict was carted off in the fourth quarter after JuJu Smith-Schuster leveled him with a high hit, then taunted him by walking over him.There were four penalties for unnecessary roughness, one for unsportsmanlike conduct, one for roughing the passer and another for taunting. The Bengals self-destructed with 13 penalties for a team-record 173 yards.The Steelers remain tied with New England for best record in the conference. They host the Patriots on Dec. 17.Bottled up by Cincinnati’s aggressive defense in the first half, Pittsburgh’s playmakers made the difference down the stretch, just as they have all season. They rallied to beat the Packers 31-28 last Sunday on Boswell’s 53-yard field goal on the final play, which was set up by Brown’s incredible sideline catch.After missing practice last week with an injured toe, Brown ran gingerly in pregame warmups and had another big game, finishing with 101 yards in eight catches.Le’Veon Bell ran for 76 yards and had another 106 yards on five catches, including a 35-yard touchdown play in which he remarkably kept his balance along the sideline — cornerback William Jackson pulled up, thinking there was no way he could stay inbound.It’s the first time that Bell and Brown each had 100 yards receiving in the same game. Ben Roethlisberger was 24 of 40 for 290 yards with a pair of touchdowns and an interception.PRIME-TIME OPPOSITESThe Steelers have won 11 straight prime-time games, including four already this season against the Lions (Sunday night), the Titans (Thursday night) and the Packers (last Sunday night). It’s been a horrific time slot for the Bengals Julian Edelman Jerseys 2019 , who are 11-24 on Monday night, dropping their past four.PRIME-TIME PLAYERSRoethlisberger has won his last seven prime-time starts, throwing 26 touchdowns and five interceptions. In those games, Brown has 58 catches for 883 yards with 15 touchdowns.IN YOUR FACEBell and Burfict have a long-running feud on Twitter, and it got in-your-face right away. After Jones picked off a pass to end the Steelers’ opening possession, Bell shoved Burfict’s facemask and drove him to the ground, drawing a personal foul.BIG NUMBERRoethlisberger became the eighth quarterback in NFL history to reach 50,000 yards passing, joining Peyton Manning, Brett Favre, Drew Brees, Tom Brady, Dan Marino, John Elway and Eli Manning.OTHER INJURIESSteelers: Brown missed practice last week with a toe injury. He moved slowly during pregame warmups but started and finished with eight catches for 101 yards.Bengals: Jones injured his groin on his first-quarter interception and didn’t return. Running back Joe Mixon suffered a concussion late in the first half.UP NEXTSteelers host second-place Baltimore (7-5) next Sunday night in their fourth prime-time game of the season. They won at Baltimore 26-9 on Oct. 1.Bengals host the Bears (3-9), completing a stretch of three straight home games. Cincinnati is 3-2 at Paul Brown Stadium this season. Ever since the offseason White Rob Gronkowski Jerseys , the New England Patriots have had a revolving door at the wide receiver position. From the likes of Maurice Harris and Dontrelle Inman, to Josh Gordon and Cameron Meredith, to Demaryius Thomas and Antonio Brown, the team brought in a boatload of players only to see them drop for various reasons one after the other. One of the team’s offseason additions, however, was able to eventually return: N’Keal Harry.The Patriots originally drafted Harry with the 32nd overall pick in this year’s draft, but had to place him on injured reserve shortly after roster cutdown day: he had hurt his ankle just three snaps (and two catches) into the preseason opener against the Detroit Lions and was unable to participate in practices and exhibition games from that point on. Six weeks after being moved to IR, however, Harry was designated as the team’s first player to come off IR.While he was not yet eligible to play, seeing the first-rounder practice with his teammates was an encouraging sign. New England then decided to officially activate him to its 53-man roster two weeks later, and even though he did was not on the game day roster against the Baltimore Ravens the writing was on the wall: Harry would make his debut in a Patriots uniform sooner rather than later — maybe even as soon as this week.“It feels great just getting out there with my team. Just getting better every day with them. Just looking for my role and the way to help my team,” Harry told reporters on Thursday. “It’s been great, just going out there with the mentality [of] just getting better every day. Just going out there, just trying my best to get better and get better at something every day. [...] It’s been great just going out there — just trying to get better every day.”While it remains to be seen whether or not the 21-year-old will actually be active against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, he did address the media for the first time since the summer. And what became clear during the short session was that Harry has one goal on his mind: getting better and finding a role within an offense that also features veteran wide receivers Julian Edelman Rob Gronkowski Jerseys 2019 , Mohamed Sanu and Phillip Dorsett.Harry’s development, of course, had to take a backseat to his recovery since August, but the rookie appeared to have a positive attitude about the ankle sprain that has held him out of game action ever since: “I just looked at it as a blessing. I just looked at the positive things in it. God has done so much throughout my life. He’s put stepping stones in certain places. I just looked at it the same way,” he said.“I don’t have any regrets,” added Harry when asked about whether or not he rushed back onto the field after already hurting his ankle earlier during practice. “I don’t need to show anything. Me going out there and playing hard and playing through stuff, that’s just the type of mentality I have. That’s just the type of mindset I grew up having. It wasn’t me trying to show anything, show toughness or anything. That’s just me.”Now, the Arizona State product is back and — if the Patriots’ injury reports are to be believed — at full strength again. His focus therefore, is on what lies ahead and what needs to be done to get better as a player: “[I’m] just trying to make sure I’m improving and giving it my all every day.”
