Shortcomings of Bengals, backup QB Jake Browning were apparent in blowout by Steelers

Published Sat, 22 Feb 2025 08:12:34 GMT

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Bengals’ confidence and playoff hopes came crashing down in Pittsburgh two days before Christmas.Cincinnati had won three straight games to sneak back into the playoff picture. But the Bengals badly needed to beat the Steelers on Saturday to stay there. Instead, Cincinnati (8-7) took a thorough beating by one of the worst offenses in the league.Jake Browning, making his fifth start in place of the injured Joe Burrow, threw three interceptions on ill-advised passes. And the Steelers exploited the Bengals’ other weaknesses. Cincinnati couldn’t run the ball — What else is new? — and the defense couldn’t contain Mason Rudolph, Pittsburgh’s third-string quarterback.The Steelers (8-7) hadn’t managed to score 24 points in a game since Oct. 22. On Saturday they led 24-0 at the half en route to a 34-11 win.The Bengals’ collapse is hard to explain. With Rudolph at quarterback, practice-squad call-ups at linebacker and safety, and...

The Los Angeles Chargers looked like a different team under interim coach Giff Smith, even though it was a familiar result.The Bolts’ 24-22 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Saturday night was their sixth by three points or fewer this season and their league-leading 13th since 2020.The loss also eliminated the Chargers from postseason contention and dropped their record to 5-10. For all intents and purposes though, owner Dean Spanos pulled the plug on the season with the Dec. 15 firings of coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco after a 63-21 loss at Las Vegas.“The game plan was tight. I feel like all week long we had fun and executed,” safety Derwin James said. “We just came out a few plays short today. You’ve seen a team that was out there trying to fight hard.”The Chargers did two things against the Bills that weren’t evident in the past two games — they had energy and played disciplined. The defense allowed only three plays of 20 yards or more, including a 57...
