Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow shook off a career-high four interceptions and appeared to lead the Bengals to an improbable victory twice, ...
Then on the next snap Watt leaped in the air and plucked it barely after Burrow let it go. The defense again held on third down with Trey Hendrickson coming fast off the edge and strong safety Vonn Bell was glued to Freirmuth to force a Boswell field goal that made it 10-3. On the drive's big play, a 32-yard run-and-catch by tight end Zach Gentry, Trubisky shot-putted it all of three yards. The only thing Heyward hadn't done in a decade against the Bengals was get an interception and he almost got that. Burrow tried to kick the rust off in a half he was 11 of 17 for 109 yards. A false start on Volson pushed them back five yards, but Burrow made a nice feathery throw to Chase in the end zone. Burrow tried to hit Hurst but overthrew him in the end zone. Three of those were Burrow interceptions (he also lost a fumble), tying his career high and a stunning development for guy that threw just two interceptions in the final eight games last season. He had time to wait for Thomas to get loose and come back to him on the left sideline. On fourth-and-six, Burrow went for Boyd over the middle, but he suddenly became double teamed when cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon read Burrow's eyes for the pick. Then when the Steelers blitzed from their 2, Burrow beat it hitting his first touchdown pass of the year to Boyd outrunning cornerback Cameron Sutton. Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick took advantage of the new operation to block what would have been the winning extra point and send it to overtime
Cincinnati's first two snaps resulted in a sack of quarterback Joe Burrow by defensive tackle Cam Heyward and an interception and 31-yard return for a touchdown ...
But the Steelers settled for a 20-yard field goal by kicker Chris Boswell and a 10-3 lead with 2:25 left in the opening quarter. The Bengals countered Fitzpatrick's early pick-six with a Bengals-record 59-yard field goal by McPherson that cut the Steelers' lead to 7-3 with 7:17 left in the first quarter. The Steelers responded with a seven-play, 15-yard drive in 2:08 that delivered a 48-yard field goal from Boswell and a 20-14 lead with 11:13 left in the fourth. The Bengals cut an 11-point halftime deficit to three at 17-14 with a nine-play, 46-yard drive in 5:44 that ended with a 2-yard touchdown pass from Burrow to wide receiver Tyler Boyd and a two-point conversion pass from Burrow to wide receiver Mike Thomas with 4:41 left in the third quarter. The Bengals punted the ball back to the Steelers with 56 seconds left in the overtime. The Bengals turned a second-and-goal from the Steelers' 6-yard line with four seconds left in the fourth quarter into a touchdown pass from Burrow to wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase.
Les amateurs n'étaient pas au bout de leur peine, puisque le botteur des Steelers Chris Boswell en a aussi mis du sien en ratant sa tentative de 55 verges.
Burrow a par la suite été victime de trois autres interceptions, en plus d’échapper le ballon une fois. Il a également été victime d’un larcin et de quatre sacs. Par ailleurs, les deux équipes ont perdu de gros morceaux de leur formation. Les Steelers en ont ensuite profité pour finir le match, grâce la jambe de Boswell sur une distance de 53 verges. Les Bengals ont plutôt été contraints de dégager le ballon. Le botteur Evan McPherson a cependant raté la transformation d’un point, ce qui a forcé les deux clubs à faire du temps supplémentaire.
The Bengals quarterback started his day started with a pick-six. His afternoon didn't really get better after that.
Possessing the ball with 1:04 to go, Cincinnati had the chance to score when Burrow was strip-sacked on third down at midfield. Still, none of those miscues seemed to matter when Chase’s six-yard touchdown catch with two seconds remaining in regulation knotted the score at 20. So we got on the ball to run it in quickly. His kick did not come close, sailing far left of the goal post. Instead, Cincinnati failed to score and turned the ball over on downs. With a two-point conversion from Burrow to wideout Mike Thomas, the Bengals closed within 17-14, making their miserable start easier to forget. Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow’s first pass of the season was intercepted and returned for a score by Minkah Fitzpatrick. It’s hard with all the craziness of that moment, all of the communication, to get that, ‘Hey, stop, stop: Let’s evaluate this.’ We just couldn’t get it done fast enough by the time we’d seen a replay and realized, ‘Oh shoot, he might have gotten in there.’ ” After Pittsburgh took a 20-14 lead, Burrow threw another interception to Steelers cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon with 8:23 remaining in regulation. He was ruled out-of-bounds at the 1-yard line after his right foot appeared to touch the goal line. (The other was Buffalo’s Josh Allen in 2019 against the Jets.) The 2022 season didn’t start kindly for the two teams that appeared in the Super Bowl seven months ago.

C'est un placement de 53 verges de Chris Boswell qui a donné la victoire aux Steelers en prolongation.
Sa tentative de placement de 55 verges, également pour la victoire, a frappé le poteau de plein fouet. Il a complété une passe de touché à Najee Harris au 2e quart. Burrow a aussi été victime de sept sacs du quart. Avec quatre secondes à jouer au 4e quart, Burrow a rejoint Chase sur six verges pour créer l’égalité 20-20.

Ce n'est que la première semaine, mais il y a de bonnes chances que ce match soit le plus fou de toute la saison NFL 2022.
Suite à une pénalité défensive sur Minkah Fitzpatrick, le rookie offensif de la saison 2021 réalise la réception de la victoire dans la end zone. Après avoir forcé une nouvelle interception sur une quatrième tentative au milieu du quatrième quart, cette dernière commence à lâcher du terrain dans les dernières minutes : réception de 18 yards pour Joe Mixon (82 YDS au sol, 63 à la réception), course de 24 yards pour Burrow, double réception de Chase pour emmener les Bengals à seulement un yard de la end zone. Trubisky et Freiermuth se connectent à deux reprises dans la dernière minute, le receveur Diontae Johnson réalise une réception de folie et Boswell a une nouvelle opportunité de jouer les héros. Watt et de Na’jee Harris (blessés) lors de la prolongation, les Steelers vont au bout d’eux-mêmes pour arracher la victoire en terre rivale. Le receveur star de Cincinnati termine fort (10 REC, 129 YDS, 1 TD) et croit même donner la victoire aux siens sur une réception absolument sensationnelle dans la end zone, mais son orteil touche la ligne blanche. Au point mort dans le troisième quart et obligé de changer de centre suite à la blessure de Mason Cole, l’attaque de Pittsburgh profite d’un gros retour de punt signé Gunner Olszewski pour ajouter trois unités au compteur (14-20). Joe Burrow vit un véritable calvaire face à la défense agressive des Steelers, guidée par le défenseur de l’année en titre T.J. Alors que l’équipe de Joe Burrow (33/53 à la passe, 338 YDS, 2 TD, 4 INT, 1 fumble perdu, 47 YDS au sol) était en position de voler la victoire à la dernière seconde après avoir été menée tout le match, la field goal unit a enchaîné les bourdes, ouvrant ainsi la voie à une victoire de Pittsburgh dans les ultimes instants de la prolongation. Cette première séquence est très symbolique de l’ensemble de la première mi-temps. Gros point faible de l’attaque des Bengals l’an passé, la protection autour de Joe Burrow représentait logiquement un gros chantier de l’intersaison à Cincinnati. Un sack sur Burrow, puis une interception du safety de Pittsburgh Minkah Fitzpatrick qui s’en va trouver la end zone. Le premier match de la saison entre les Bengals et les Steelers à Cincinnati a offert un scénario que même les plus imaginatifs ne pouvaient envisager.

Burrow didn't play in the preseason games as he recovered from an appendectomy, and he got a rude welcome back to the field. ... LS Clark Harris went out with a biceps injury. Before that, he was his usual disruptive self, with a sack and a pick. That set up Trubisky's 2-yard TD pass to Najee Harris for a 17-3 edge. CINCINNATI (AP) -- Chris Boswell kicked a 53-yard field goal as time expired in overtime and the Pittsburgh Steelers overcame T.J. Watt, the Defensive Player of the Year, left the field and headed to the locker room shortly before the game went to overtime with a pectoral injury.
Joe Burrow had five turnovers and the Bengals' special teams failed to convert multiple game-winning opportunities.
But the turnovers and missed field goals were too much for Cincinnati to overcome. On one of them, he felt pressure and threw the ball right to Steelers edge rusher T.J. In overtime, following a high snap, McPherson missed a 29-yard field goal that would have won the game. If it weren’t for the special teams miscues, Burrow would have started 2022 with another game to add to his legend. If Harris were healthy, the Bengals would have had two chances at a game-winning field goal. Then in Sunday’s season opener against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Harris had to leave the game with a biceps injury.
We had our chances. To lose the turnover battle five to nothing, to have kick operations ruined on two kicks that both would have won the game is disheartening ...
"We've got to watch the film, make corrections and then we're moving on. Overall, we did a good job fighting and we've got to do the same thing again next week." "It was a bench route and Joe [Burrow] threw me the ball. It was a tough game and we had an opportunity to win it." I had a little bit more experience with the long snapping on punts, but it would have been good to get some reps at placekicking snaps." If the ball dribbles back or it's an errant snap, then you get a chance to get to the next play." "We do everything we can to iron that out. We felt the right decision was to kick it on third down in case the snap was off and Kevin Huber could just spike it and we could try to kick it again. We had a no-score down in the low red zone, we had a no-score in overtime. You saw earlier that they rushed us on some looks earlier in the game, so we just wanted to make sure everything runs smooth." We got yards there at the end; we just couldn't finish those drives that would have won the game for us." "You have to trust that we're going to get it done.

It seemed Tee Higgins might be the biggest injury the Bengals would sustain against the Steelers in their opening matchup.
Losing because of issues with a backup long-snapper is certainly a unique way to start the season. Taylor explained this, again, was due to the new long-snapper. Taylor explained the decision was made to potentially give Cincinnati two chances at the game-winning kick. On the Bengals' first drive of overtime, Burrow marched the team down the field to the Steelers' 11-yard line. Taylor explained after the game that he didn't know when Clark Harris, the team's long-snapper, sustained his biceps injury, but that it came down to Wilcox filling in. Zac Taylor admitted that there's one that doesn't come up all that often: losing the long-snapper to an injury.
The defense lived up to its coach's definition of dominant with a TD, 5 takeaways, and 7 sacks.
With that, the Steelers' task came down to digging in and working to prevent fatigue and attrition from erasing the cushion it had played such a large role in helping to build. And when Cincinnati lined up for an extra point with 2 seconds remaining in regulation that would win the game, Fitzpatrick broke through and blocked it to send the game into overtime. Watt on the fourth; and an interception by Sutton on the fifth, before the Bengals were able to run nine clean plays to settle for a red zone field goal on the sixth. But just because the Steelers offense wasn't capitalizing on all of the opportunities and beneficial field position presented by the defense, it capitalized on enough to build a 17-6 halftime lead. They showed up ready to play, they made some plays on some balls that were really great plays." Against the Steelers, on 18 first-half pass plays, Burrow threw three interceptions (a fourth was nullified by a penalty) and was sacked four times. And so, it fell to the defense to "provide a winning edge … to do the things that position your team for victory." You know, (dominant) means a lot of things, and I was thoughtful when I said it because I want them to be what we need them to be whenever we need them to be it. It was during that awful stretch of an NFL training camp, where the monotony was as thick as the humidity, when a change in the time of the daily thunderstorm from late afternoon to early afternoon qualified as a welcome diversion. We've got to be what this team needs us to be in significant moments as well." A win that could be traced directly to their dominant defense.
Standing behind a revamped offensive line, Joe Burrow committed five turnovers on Sunday, and the Pittsburgh Steelers eked out a wild 23-20 win in overtime. The ...

Evan McPherson could have won the game twice for Cincinnati against their divisional rivals. But they were without a crucial player.
In the case of the Bengals, it was the difference between a win and a loss. It looked like it was going to be a long day for the Bears after San Francisco took a 7-0 lead and Chicago kept punting after calling screens on third and longs in the first half. Down 13-0 at halftime to the Titans, the Giants came out a new team in the second half. Ties in the NFL: barf. They are the coolest dudes in the locker room, and the good ones are models of longevity. [who reached the final of America’s Got Talent](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DrtCvU1wRw). That’s a nice thing to say but with Harris snapping the ball, the operation is actually fine, and the Bengals actually win. McPherson, to his credit, was diplomatic about the failed field-goal attempt: “The operation was fine. A display of football mastery for the ages, it was not. [not challenging](https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/09/11/jamarr-chase-non-touchdown-would-have-been-a-touchdown-if-challenged/) when a clear Ja’Marr Chase touchdown was ruled incomplete with just over 2:00 remaining in regulation. The Steelers were always going to be conservative with Mitch Trubisky starting at quarterback, but three points and fewer than 100 total yards in the second half is inexcusable. The latest instalment of the Steelers-Bengals rivalry was an anxiety-ridden thriller, even for those with no rooting interest in either team.
Tout ce qui a fonctionné l'an passé pour rendre la saison des Bengals magique a tourné au vinaigre, hier, face aux Steelers.
Les Raiders avaient le ballon en fin de quatrième quart, et Mack a de nouveau appliqué la pression sur Derek Carr, qui a finalement été rabattu au sol par Joey Bosa (1,5 sac) et Morgan Fox pour clore le débat en lui faisant perdre le ballon. Il a terminé avec 164 verges par la course et 30 par la passe. En toute fin de première demie, son équipe s’est retrouvée en position de quatrième essai et sept verges à franchir à la ligne de 42 des Patriots. Le porteur a été instrumental sur la séquence finale, avec 51 verges au sol et trois par la passe. Les Jaguars ont laissé filer une rare avance au quatrième quart face aux Commanders, mais ils ont néanmoins obtenu une chance de reprendre les devants en fin de match. Il n’a joué que sept matchs en 2020 et il s’est retrouvé sur la touche toute la saison dernière. Quatre des cinq partants pour ce premier match n’étaient pas de l’atroce ligne de la saison dernière, qui aurait pratiquement pu coûter la vie à Joe Burrow. Il a été épique face aux Bengals avec six plaqués, dont trois pour des pertes, un sac, une interception et deux passes rabattues. Après une semaine d’activités, aucune équipe ne revendique une victoire dans la division Sud de la conférence américaine. Le quart-arrière a plusieurs fois attaqué des doubles couvertures de manière insouciante. Tout ce qui a fonctionné l’an passé pour rendre la saison des Bengals magique a tourné au vinaigre, hier, face aux Steelers. La saison dernière, le flegme de Joe Burrow faisait sa légende.

"I would have been holding the mike and quoting you." "He's way ahead of me when I had my first start," Collins said. I was just trying to make sure I got my feet down on the catch," Chase said. "We knew what (the Steelers) were going to play, so we came out with a much better mindset in the second half." Collins was hard on himself and that reconfigured offensive line the Bengals chased down in free agency and the draft. But we've got to make it a lot easier on him." "I wasn't really trying to get that much, I had to go an extra revolution and I was going to be off timing. "He's going to get up and play the next play. So you've got to find the silver lining there." "This is the team I expected it to be. "When you lose the turnover battle five to nothing, I don't expect to win many games. This team is built of the right stuff and we'll respond well."

— Jessie Bates was in on 97 percent of the snaps, so no concerns — as expected — after that holdout. — Wideout Mike Thomas ended up playing 69 percent of the snaps after — The offense played 100 snaps on the day, yet couldn’t move the ball particularly well thanks to issues up front and from Joe Burrow.
