Brown also added a punt return for a touchdown last week, but was fined for an excessive celebration following one of his scores. Pittsburgh harassed Indy quarterback Matt Hasselbeck into a two-interception outing in the convincing win. “Each and every one of us takes pride in the game,” Brown said, “and we’re doing a great job of getting better each and every week as a team. Today we showed that.”
Wide receiver A.J. Green caught five passes for 128 yards and one touchdown in the win while Cincinnati’s defense limited the Browns to just 68 rushing yards in the win. “We play hard and we play for each other,” Green said. “We let the score take care of itself.

Pittsburgh (7-5 SU, 7-4-1 ATS)
The Steelers have won three of their last four games including an overpowering 45-10 win over Indianapolis as a 10-point home favorite just as I predicted last week. Ben Roethlisberger tossed four touchdown passes to lead the Steelers to victory while electrifying wide receiver Antonio Brown caught eight passes for 118 yards and two scores. Fellow wideout Martavis Bryant added four catches for 114 yards and one score while veteran running back DeAngelo Williams rushed 26 times for a stellar 134 yards. “If we don’t turn the ball over, that’s us and that’s been us,” Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin said. “Ben was Ben tonight and those guys did a nice job of getting open and making plays.”

Cincinnati (10-2 SU, 10-1-1 ATS)
The Bengals beat the hell out of the lowly Cleveland Browns in their 37-3 blowout win as a 3-point road favorite. Quarterback Andy Dalton completed 14 of 19 passes for 220 yards and two touchdowns while running back Jeremy Hill rushed for 98 yards and one score on 22 carries. “This was huge,” said Hill. “We want to win the North and have home field (advantage) and win the Super Bowl. We’re taking it week by week. It’s been working, so why change it?” Now, the Bengals are playing for more than a division title as they seek to grab home field advantage over New England and Denver in the AFC playoffs. “We know what we’re playing for. There’s a lot riding on these last four weeks,” said Andy Dalton, who has thrown for five touchdowns as Cincinnati recorded back-to-back victories following a two-game skid.
Wide receiver A.J. Green caught five passes for 128 yards and one touchdown in the win while Cincinnati’s defense limited the Browns to just 68 rushing yards in the win. “We play hard and we play for each other,” Green said. “We let the score take care of itself.
