Ben Roethlisberger, who was playing with a broken thumb in his throwing hand, completed 21-of-31 passes for 193 yards with the game's lone touchdown and an interception for Pittsburgh (8-3), which is tied with the |

| Pittsburgh, PA (Sportsbooks) - Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said Tuesday that he suffered a small fracture in his right thumb during Sunday's game against Cincinnati. Roethlisberger didn't recall how it happened, but said tests on Monday revealed the break. He also broke the same thumb in 2005. The Steelers have a bye this week after their 24-17 win over the Bengals and will return to action on November 27 in prime time against Kansas City. "Luckily we have the bye week," Roethlisberger s |

The Cincinnati Bengals figured to show just what they were made of this past Sunday versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. The verdict was encouraging despite a tough loss, but the team's gutsy effort may have sucked a little out of the tanks, too. After quickly falling behind by two touchdowns in the first quarter, the Bengals rallied to go toe-to-toe with the defendi |

| Cincinnati, OH (Sportsbooks) - The Cincinnati Bengals' 24-17 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday proved to be costly, as cornerback Leon Hall suffered a torn Achilles.

The club's 2007 first-round pick, Hall, has never missed a game in his five- year, 73-game career. The Michigan product had 32 tackles and two interceptions in nine contests this season.

| (Sportsbooks) - While the Pittsburgh Steelers won't exactly be limping into Cincinnati's Paul Brown Stadium this Sunday, there should definitely be some lingering effects from their hard-fought game from a week ago. That could play right into the hands of the Bengals, who've been thriving on wearing teams down and beating them late. One week after a loss to the rival Ravens dropped them out of first place in the AFC North, the Steelers try to avoid falling even further behind this weekend against the division |

Clark was called for a 15-yard unnecessary roughness penalty. Following a Week 8 win over New England, Clark was fined $15,000 for hitting Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski out of bou |
