Same ol' bipolar Steelers... Offense is steamrolling, defense is holding up, and the ST units are doing well...

Where the fuck was this team in the first 4 weeks?

Connor looks awesome. Don't tell @Terry Rode , that fucks up his agenda or vendetta or something.

He looked great today. Wish he could play like this every game, or at least every other game. Don't have a vendetta, just looking at stats and facts. He was impressive Week 1, less than impressive Weeks 2-4 and now impressive Week 5. I want Conner to do well, because that means the Steelers do well. Don't understand the hate I'm getting over pointing out Conner's lack of production the last 3 weeks.

For Conner to perform this well he needs his O-line to play as well as they did today. And for Fichtner to get the offense rolling like this. Still not sure we can take much away from this game since its one of the worst defenses in the league.

Cincy's defensive front combined with Burfict is going to be a much MUCH more difficult test.

This was the feel-good win they needed though. Now they need to build on it. A big road divisional matchup next week would be a huge boost to this team before heading into the bye. Steelers cannot afford to stumble again.

This was a total team win. Hope they keep playing like this for the rest of the season.
