The Pittsburgh Steelers don't have any time to catch their breath following their Week 9 bye.

Not only do the Steelers have to tend to business ahead of the November 10 trade deadline , but they also are preparing for a Sunday Night Football showdown on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Bengals, much like Pittsburgh, have won four games in a row. The two teams are now tied atop the AFC North at 6-2 as a result, and this week's bout could very well end up dictating who takes the division crown by the end of the year.

While the Steelers came away with a 30-27 win over Cincinnati in Week 3, sweeping the season series will be much easier said than done considering they're heading into a hostile environment in primetime.
