The Pittsburgh Steelers face the Cincinnati Bengals at 1:00 PM ET on CBS (only in certain regions). The match-up could have major playoff implications for the entire AFC, as both teams are 6-2 and in the running for a first-round bye. Pittsburgh is favored by seven points.

It is unusual for the division foes to play each other in a meaningful game. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette notes that in just three instances during the past 30 years have the two teams played each other with winning records. Joe Reedy at the Cincinnati Enquirer writes that this Bengals team seems to be more able to handle success than in past years.
