Coming into their Monday night game, both the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals were desperate to get their first victory on the season. Pittsburgh's defense has looked impressive. Not to be forgotten, Mason Rudolph is making plays. Rudolph was able to connect with a wide open Diontae Johnson to increase the Steelers' lead.

This is without a doubt the best Rudolph as played in his three games and second start, throwing for more yardage on Monday's game then he has in his previous games. His hookup with Johnson can be a sign of things to come as Juju Smith- Schuster is looking for that second receiving option to line up along side him.

We will see if Pittsburgh is able to carry this momentum into next week's matchup against the division leading in the Browns.
