Jungle Roar Bengals Postgame Joe Flacco, Ja Marr Chase Revive Bengals in Electric Win Over Steelers
CINCINNATI — It was Joe Flacco and Ja'Marr Chase to the rescue Thursday night when the Bengals absolutely needed it. Evan McPherson’s fourth field goal of the night, from 36 yards with seven seconds remaining, lifted the Cincinnati Bengals past the Pittsburgh Steelers, 33-31, on Thursday night in Cincinnati. The play was set up on a perfect lob from Flacco to Tee Higgins for 28 yards from the Pittsburgh 35. Higgins slid to the Pittsburgh 7 and the Bengals were able to essentially kill the remainder of the clock before McPherson's game-winning kick. The Bengals (3-4) snapped a four-game losing streak and won for the first time since Joe Burrow was injured on Sept. 14. The Steelers (4-2) fell for the first time this season on the road.
Trags and Skinny break it all down in this episode of the Jungle Roar Bengals Postgame Pod.
Burrow’s replacement, Flacco completed 31-of-47 passes for 342 yards and threw three touchdowns while Rodgers threw a pair of touchdown passes to tight end Pat Freiermuth, including a 68-yarder for the go-ahead score with over two minutes to go to put the Steelers up, 31-30. Rodgers finished with four touchdown passes in total, all to tight ends.

Aaron Rodgers vs. Joe Flacco didn’t disappoint in the fourth-ever matchup of 40-year-old quarterbacks.
With Cincinnati's lead pass rusher Trey Hendrickson out with a hip injury, the 41-year-old Rodgers was able to scramble often, buying more time to find receivers downfield. Rodgers finished 22-of-32 for 244 yards two touchdowns and two interceptions. Steelers running back Jaylen Warren added 127 yards on 16 carries. The game ended when DJ Ivey batted Rodgers 60-yard heave to the end zone as time expired.
Ja’Marr Chase had a team-record 16 catches on 23 targets for 161 yards and a touchdown. Running back Chase Brown was key in Cincinnati's first-half rally with explosive runs of 37 and 27 yards. Brown finished with 108 yards on 11 carries.
