CINCINNATI -- The Steelers took control of the AFC North by doing a little bit of everything during a month-long winning streak: throwing it, running it, playing some steely defense.Their fifth straight victory came a whole new way. Call it the kick-6.Chris Boswell tied the club record with six field goals, and Ben Roethlisberger threw a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter Sunday, rallying Pittsburgh to a 24-20 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals that kept the Steelers in control of the division.Weve said well win the game how we have to win it, Roethlisberger said.In Cincinnati, they win every which way.The Steelers (9-5) won their fourth in a row at Paul Brown Stadium, taking advantage of more meltdown moments by the defending division champions.

Burfict tackled Roethlisberger after he got rid of the ball, and Jones was flagged for taunting.They let Pittsburgh do whatever they wanted to, Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick fumed. They shouldve been calling stuff on them, too.Running back Jeremy Hill had an early take-that moment as the Bengals scored on each of their first four possessions for a 20-6 lead. As part of his touchdown celebration, he grabbed a Terrible Towel a fan threw on the field, tried to tear it, and then threw it to the ground.Boswell brought them back kick by kick, accounting for Pittsburghs first 15 points with field goals of 45, 49, 49, 40, 49 and 30 yards into a gusting wind.They didnt look pretty, they didnt go over by much, but they went in, said Boswell, who got a game ball.In the end, there was yet another Bengals meltdown . They had penalties on four consecutive plays -- including Pat Sims personal foul -- that set up Roethlisbergers 24-yard touchdown pass to Eli Rogers for a 24-20 lead.
