First time in franchise history Bengals start 7-0. You go into Pittsburgh and you can expect and ugly game. WTS there were some that shined. So who get Steeler’s Game Ball:
AJ GREEN: 11 catches, 118 yards, 1 TD
JEREMY HILL: 15 carries for 60 yards
REGGIE NELSON: 5 tackles, 2 INTs
ADAM JONES: 5 tackles, shut down his side of the field and Antonio Brown
VONTAZE BURFICT: The QB of the D is back. Had to play more snaps than planned when Maul went down
VINNY REY: Team high 8 tackles and 1 PD.
MIKE NUGENT: 10 total points (would have been 13 if Winston could stay still)
No doubt AJ was the offensive MVP
But the defense won that game and Nelson had 2 picks and both were huge. He also seemed to be in the right place all day today
Adam Jones did shut down Brown for the most part after the first series and played great (all pro level again) today
The Nugent block FG was too low and on him in my opinion
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
