CINCINNATI — Just like that, Joe Flacco and the Bengals offense have the Bengals leading the Steelers 14-10 on Thursday Night Football.

Jordan Battle had a nice interception on the Steelers' first play following the Bengals' initial score. Then the Bengals quickly got back toward the red zone, and Flacco capitalized with a 29-yard touchdown pass to Tee Higgins. Flacco has an elite 125 passer rating so far.
