The Steelers didn’t need a cheap shot to end the Bengals season this year.  Ben Roethlisberger completed 19 of 28 passes for 280 yards with 1 TD and 1 INT.  Willie Parker was very busy with 37 carries for 134 yards (3.6 ypc) and 2 TDs.  Hines Ward had a solid game with 5 catches for 51 yards and he carried the ball twice for 30 yards.  Santonio Holmes had a great game catching 4 passes for 124 yards and a TD (the gamewinner in OT)!

The defense stuffed the Bengals running game, holding them to 44 yards on 16 carries (2.8 ypc).  The Bengals completed 20 of 38 passes for 251 net yards passing on the day.
