In this Monday afternoon episode, Alex Kozora and I get right into talking about the Pittsburgh Steelers' Sunday afternoon road win against the Cincinnati Bengals and how it was an unexpected shootout that they came out on the right side of. There was not much in the way of pre-game news to discuss when it comes to the Steelers, but we knock that out early in the show. That includes no Saturday transactions being made, the inactive list being as expected and the team only sustaining one injury on Sunday against the Bengals. We also discuss the Steelers hopefully being a very healthy team next Sunday.

Watt, DT Cameron Heyward, and OLB Nick Herbig. We also discuss CB Cameron Sutton playing a lot snaps on Sunday as well. The Steelers' special teams weren’t perfect on Sunday but good enough.
