Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall didn't pile up the yards on the ground, gaining only 60, but he did find the end zone twice. Isaac Redman did have eight carries for 51 yards as part of the Steelers' rushing attack.
Mendenhall disappeared last week against the Chiefs. He carried the ball 17 times, but was limited to just 57 yards, an average of 3.4 yards per carry. The week before that, against the Baltimore Ravens, he was limited to just 2.8 yards per carry, though two touchdowns padded his stats.
The Bengals defense is another tough draw for the Steelers running back. Through 12 weeks of play, Mendenhall has carried the ball 153 times for 574 rushing yards and six touchdowns. Fake Teams, SB Nation's fantasy spots site, ranked Mendenhall 16th on the positional rankings this week.
