All eyes are on Higgins following his incredible performance last Saturday that included two touchdowns, four receptions, and 61 yards in the fourth quarter. Chase appears to be questionable to play.
Nothing, I believe, has changed for me. “After practice on Wednesday, I just have to go out there and be the receiver that I am,” Higgins remarked.

That on Saturday was enormous. Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan took notice of his leaping jump ball reception at the goal line and his blind reverse pivot to sweep the ball over the pylon for a 21-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jake Browning that tied the game at 24 with 39 seconds remaining.
Callahan told the media this week, “It’s probably the best one I’ve ever seen.” “The way Tee broke off the route, returned to the ball, outran the defensive back, planted both feet, and then performed that circus act where he likes to spin back.” My arm isn’t even that long.
That play was simply one of those utterly bizarre ones. It really was amazing. For the pure physical weirdness of it all, that one will stick in my memory for a very long time. Guys don’t frequently make plays like that.”

The previous time the Steelers faced the Bengals, they were able to accomplish so much that they had their greatest offensive day in three years (421 yards, 153 on the ground) despite having Reader in the lineup.
The Bengals had struggled all season to defend the run, ranking dead last, but after facing the Steelers, they appeared to be turning things around with back-to-back games of less than 100 yards. However, the 27th-ranked rush by the Vikings on Saturday went for 143 yards after Reader went down.
However, Lou Anarumo, the defensive coordinator, is certain that his run defenders retreated. He concentrates on two errors made by rookie cornerback DJ Turner II and safety Dax Hill.
