Bengals Team Report (Yahoo! Sports)
After an 0-8 start, the Bengals have not lost a game in three weeks. They defeated Jacksonville on Nov. 2, had a bye Nov. 9 and tied the Eagles on Nov. 16.
Now they go to Pittsburgh for a Thursday night game against the 7-3 Steelers.
Cincinnati is 1-8-1.
The Bengals played a full 75 minutes against the Eagles and have to turn around and play in four days.
"It's a tough game to swallow, and in a normal week, you have some time to heal physically," Bengals quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick said after the tie. "But this is a short week, and it will be a physical game as it always is against the Steelers. But we'll be ready."
The Bengals are potentially short-handed.

Eagles, Bengals play to 13-13 tie (AP)

It couldn't have ended any other way. McNabb fumbled and threw three interceptions in regulation Sunday, and the Bengals botched the only scoring chance in overtime, leaving the equally inept teams with the NFL's first tied...

Benson has become Bengals' top runner (AP)Running back Cedric Benson's fairly modest game -- 104 yards on 24 carries -- was a major breakthrough by Cincinnati Bengals standards.

Benson became the first Bengal to run for 100 yards this season during a 21-19 win over Jacksonville on Sunday.
