But it was a division loss that definitely stings right now, but we just have to hope it does not leave a mark in the long run.

Believe the Bengals will respond well though.

I heard a Stealers fan call in to Sirius yesterday who had a very good take on this game and stated he would rather have taken the "L" and had a healthy Watt and Harris going forward than getting the win and losing Watt for anywhere from 4-6 weeks, then having him play hobbled. Harris is reportedly ok, but this is the 2nd time already this season (injured in pre-season) and I don't see him making it very far into the season with the Lis Franc sprain. WIthout Harris and Watt, Pissburgh's season is already over.
