PITTSBURGH -- Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger talked to Channel 11 Thursday about the game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

He didn't blame the wide receivers for running incorrect pass routes or the special teams for allowing a third costly kickoff return touchdown in four games. Roethlisberger instead said the Steelers' biggest loss of the season was his fault.

"I had a bad day. I know everyone here has had a bad day," said Roethlisberger. "I struggled all the way around."

The Steelers are down a game to the Bengals in the AFC North after losing to Cincinnati 18-12.

The Steelers will play the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.
