Ben Roethlisberger has fallen down face-forward on an NFL field more than any other human in history.

Game News
This season, many members of the Pittsburgh Steelers 2021 NFL draft class have been called into service. But just how young is the Steelers offense, compared to the rest of the league? According to over the cap, Pittsburgh is the youngest offensive squad in the league and by a longshot.
The Steelers have played a remarkable 73.9 percent of its offensive snaps by players 25 years or younger. Here is how the top 10 broke down according to Jason at OTC. Guys like Najee Harris, Pat Freiermuth, Kendrick Green and Dan Moore Jr. are all playing huge roles in the starting lineup as rookies and youngsters like Chase Claypool and Chuks Okorafor are also full-time starters
Steelers kicker Chris Boswell had a rough patch a few years ago and Mike Tomlin stuck with him. This year, he's 22-of-23 on field goals. Having a Pro Bowl season.

The Steelers seem determined to get Najee Harris 25 yards rushing in this game.
Mike Tomlin just punted on 4th and 1 trailing by 21 points for some reason.
Freiermuth (concussion) caught all four targets for 40 yards and a touchdown Sunday, but he had to be evaluated for a concussion after a 41-10 loss to the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Eric Ebron (knee) was placed on injured reserve this week, so Freiermuth resumed his role as the Steelers' unchallenged starting tight end. While the 22-year-old posted a strong fantasy line, he was forced to exit the game late after a hit to the head and will likely have to go through the league's concussion protocol this week. If Freiermuth is unable to go, Zach Gentry will be asked to start against the Ravens next Sunday.
#Steelers LB Robert Spillane sustained a knee injury and will not return to today's game vs. Cincinnati.

Burrow one on one in space against Minkah Fitzpatrick did not go the way you would anticipate. twitter.com/Bengals/status…
Steelers inactives today include QB Dwayne Haskins, CB Joe Haden, LB Buddy Johnson, TE Kevin Rader and NT Isaiah Buggs. Buggs listed as a starter and has been. Down today. Ouch.
Steelers have found a creative way around replacing Ray-Ray McCloud as punt returner. They don't let the other team punt.

I would expect B.J. Finney to start at left guard today in place of Kevin Dotson. Was J.C. Hassenauer last week, but he's now on injured reserve.
Here are the inactives for this week’s game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cincinnati Bengals. The biggest surprise on this list is defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs who wasn’t even listed on the team’s injury report
Joe Mixon's last 8 games: * 16 att, 67 yards, TD * 10 att, 33 yards, TD * 18 att, 94 yards, 5 catches, 69 yards, TD * 12 att, 59 yards, TD * 14 att, 33 yards, TD, 4 rec, 58 yards, TD * 13 att, 64 yards, 2 TD, 5 rec, 56 yards * 30 att, 123 yards, 2 TD * 28 att, 165 yards, 2 TD
When the #Bengals beat the #Steelers in Week 3, PIT not only didn't sack CIN QB Joe Burrow, it didn't even get a hit on him. TJ Watt did not play in that game. TJ Watt, in eight all-time games vs CIN, has 7.5 sacks and three forced fumbles. TJ Watt is playing today.

Joe Burrow threw his 10th TD pass of 30+ yards this season when he connected with Tee Higgins for a 32-yard TD 10 Pass TD's of 30+ yards is most in first 11 games of a season for a QB age 24 or younger since HOF Johnny Unitas in 1957 (also 10 such TD) @Bengals

As reported on @NFLonFOX , Randy Moss's son Thaddeus Moss will dress and play in his first NFL game for the Bengals today vs Steelers.
Yet another 50-plus yard FG for Evan McPherson. That's 7 of 8 on the year for him. Bengals lead, 34-3.
When Tee Higgins is doing THAT opposite Ja'Marr Chase while Joe Mixon is averaging six yards a carry, well, that's mighty frightening development for defensive coordinators.
Injury Update: No. 66 Trey Hopkins has a left knee injury. His return is questionable.
Injury Update: OT Riley Reiff has a left ankle injury. His return is questionable.
Sam Hubbard sack. He's starting to compile some impressive numbers.
As Brandon Allen trots out onto the field.... Congratulations to my fellow Cincinnati over 6.5 wins ticket-holders! #LOTN
Bengals coach Zac Taylor on any significance of beating the Steelers twice: "Our goal is to go through this division. We gotta be better than we ever have been in this division."
Mixon says The Temptation celebration came about in the seconds before the TD while the Higgins catch was being reviewed. Quinton Spain's idea.
#Bengals inactives vs #Steelers: WR Auden Tate WR Trenton Irwin TE Mitchell Wilcox OL Fred Johnson CB Vernon Hargreaves DT Tyler Shelvin
Bengals WR Stanley Morgan was also singing Kanye's "Good Life" as he ran into the locker room. It's now blaring on the speakers in there.
Waiting on official word on Riley Reiff. Isaiah Prince is in at RT, but Reiff is standing on the sideline in full uniform. Appears fine. Reiff came off limping after the INT, all signs point to an extreme precaution given the score.
Mixon gets the final plunge. Trey Hill was at C for that TD run.

Bengals rookie Jackson Carman in the game at RG. Some very valuable reps for the former starter and '21 second-round pick.
And a B.J. Hill sack ends the first half. #Bengals 31, Steelers 3
Logan Wilson chasing on that third down. His eyes were slow.
Bengals RB Chris Evans gets the first RB2 snap today
As expected after his practice squad elevation, Thad Moss makes his #Bengals debut with TE Mitchell Wilcox also inactive today.
