Steelers fans toasting a Rudolph rescue job over Flacco without trusting the floorboards beneath them.
The emotional rollercoaster
Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.
What happened
K.Dugger's 73-yard pick-six off J.Flacco flipped the game open in the third, and M.Rudolph's two short completions to D.Washington and R.Wilson kept the foot down. The defensive plan on Chase clearly worked, J.Warren's 35-yard run set an early tone, and beating J.Flacco never gets old. Still, the lingering note on the card is that M.Rudolph is once again the reason a home Bengals game didn't go sideways — comforting and unsettling in equal measure.
