After a poor performance in New England last week, the Steelers' offense showed some promising signs of life this afternoon at Acrisure Stadium.

Pittsburgh faced off against division rival Cincinnati, and they came out on top 30-27. A last-minute Joe Burrow fumble sealed the deal for the Steelers as the Bengals were making their last drive of the game.

The Steelers will meet another division rival on Thursday night as they travel to Cleveland to face the Browns.

Many of the Steelers starters didn't make the trip to Buffalo last night for the last preseason game, allowing the young team members one last chance to prove their worth.

The Steelers led the way most of the game at the brand new Highmark Stadium, but a last minute touchdown by the Bills along with a 2-point conversion gave them a 27-26 victory.

Pittsburgh will kick off the regular season at home against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, September 13.
