The Pittsburgh Steelers defeated their rivals from Cincinnati, the Bengals, 30-27, at Acrisure Stadium, Sept. 27, 2026. The win gets the Steelers to 2-1 on the year, and it was an impressive win considering the Steelers came into the game as underdogs, and there were questions about the Steelers’ offensive line. Overall, though, the line played much better with a revamped look on the right side, and Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers threw three touchdowns in the victory.

The big defensive stop with under a minute left to play was second-year defensive lineman Derrick Harmon sacking the Bengals’ Joe Burrow, and the ball was fumbled, recovered by the Steelers to secure the three-point victory.
