The Pittsburgh Steelers had no answers for the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday. After losing to Cincinnati 41-10, Pittsburgh seems to be losing control of the season. Ben Roethlisberger was awful and gets real with what happened in the game.

According to Steelers Depot, Ben Roethlisberger claims, “We got our butt kicked, it is what it is.” An honest take and really, there isn't much else for Big Ben to say. The Steelers were outplayed in every facet of the game, as the Bengals had their way throughout the matchup.

The Steelers fall to 5-5-1 on the year, making their road to the playoffs much less likely. The one-time might Steelers are fading and it appears the Bengals are on their way to taking over the AFC North.

Big Ben is near retirement and the 2021 NFL season is possibly his last. The Steelers still have a decent roster, but they must figure out their quarterback situation for the future. The current backups won't cut it, so the front office is likely to look in either free agency or the NFL Draft.

We'll see how the rest of the Steelers' season plays out. They have a tough schedule ahead of them and it'll be difficult for this franchise to win enough games to make a playoff appearance. Every team they're playing against here on out is in contention for a playoff spot.

Hopefully, Pittsburgh can get back on track, as they must figure things out if they hope to make it to the postseason. Keep an eye on Big Ben and the Steelers, as they'll look to get back on track against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 13.
