Welcome to the Week 13 grades!

If you’re a Bengals fan, it might be time to give up on the season. For the third straight week, the Bengals scored at least 27 points and for the third straight week, they lost. The Bengals defense got burned badly in an unexpected shootout with Pittsburgh that ended with the Steelers winning 44-38. 

If you’re wondering how ugly things are for the Bengals, here’s small taste: 

They’ve scored 99 points during their three-game losing streak, which is the MOST in NFL history for a team that has lost three games in a row. They’ve now lost four games this season when scoring at least 33 points, which is the most by any team in NFL history. Joe Burrow is now the second QB in NFL history to throw for at least 300 yards with three touchdown passes or more in three straight games and LOSE them all (He joins Andrew Luck. The Bengals better hope that Burrow’s career doesn’t go the same route as Luck’s). 

Three years after their Super Bowl season, the Bengals are now at a crossroads. Anyway, let’s get to this week’s grades, starting with the Steelers’ win over Cincinnati. If you want to see the grades from Black Friday or from the Thanksgiving games, you can check those out here.
