We’re feeling the coldest air of the season so far with wind chills close to zero across much of the area. The wind will back off later, with a few peeks of sun possible, so it won’t feel as bad this afternoon.

Steady snow pushes into the area tonight and may arrive as soon as 10 or 11 p.m. for areas close to the Mason-Dixon line. For most, snow starts falling overnight in waves through Monday morning. Another round of steady snow is expected to develop Monday afternoon, mainly from Pittsburgh points south.

A Winter Storm Warning goes into effect for Fayette, Washington and Westmoreland Counties at 7 p.m. and remains active until Monday at 7 p.m. A Winter Weather Advisory is in effect for the same period for Allegheny and Indiana counties.

Allegheny County still looks to be very close to the cutoff for higher snow totals, with amounts close to 6″ near I-70 and generally an inch or two expected north. Snow should be nearly done by Monday evening, with only flurries possible into Tuesday morning.

Mid-week looks quiet but cold with highs still in the 20s. More snow showers will develop late Wednesday night with an Arctic front as wind chills drop below zero again for the end of the week.

The Bengals did what they had to do to give themselves a chance at making the playoffs.

Trey Hendrickson had 3.5 sacks of Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson, including one in the final minute that led to the Steelers turning the ball over on downs with 11 seconds left to play. That secured a 19-17 win for the Bengals and they will now shift to observer mode on Sunday. Losses by the Broncos and Dolphins will give the Bengals a playoff spot.

It’s a scenario that seemed far-fetched when the Bengals were 4-8, but five straight wins to close out the regular season leaves them alive heading into the final day of the season. Hendrickson, who is likely to be the league’s sack leader with 17.5 on the season, was one of the three usual suspects to play a big role in the latest win.

Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase hooked up for their 17th touchdown of the season to open the game and Chase ended the night with 10 catches for 96 yards. He is the first player in league history with 1,700 receiving yards and 17 touchdowns in the same season and he won the receiving triple crown by leading the league in catches as well.

Burrow was checked for a concussion at one point, but didn’t miss a snap and went 37-of-46 for 277 yards to drive an offense that was missing running back Chase Brown and saw wide receiver Tee Higgins leave with an ankle injury. It wrapped up a stellar season for Burrow, but Sunday’s results will show whether it is enough for them to have a shot at getting back to the Super Bowl.

The Steelers know that they’ll have that chance, but will have to wait for the Chargers’ result to find out their seed. If the Chargers beat the Raiders, the Steelers will head to Baltimore as the No. 6 seed. If the Chargers lose, they’ll go to Houston as the No. 5 seed.

Playing the Texans seems like a better bet to advance, but the Steelers offense doesn’t feel like a safe bet under any circumstances. They had a pair of touchdown drives that accounted for 12 of their 16 first downs and they couldn’t take advantage of a golden opportunity to take the lead in the fourth quarter. A Corliss Waitman punt bounced into Bengals defensive back D.J. Ivey’s foot and the Steelers recovered on the Bengals’ 38-yard-line.

One of Hendrickson’s sacks helped force a Chris Boswell field goal that cut Cincinnati’s lead to two, however, and the Steelers would never get the touchdown they needed. They only managed 193 yards for the game and they will be trying to snap a four-game losing streak when they take the field next weekend. It will help if wide receiver George Pickens can hold onto the ball after dropping three passes on Saturday, but there were enough other issues to make it feel like the long wait for the Steelers offense to catch fire feels like it may not end before the 2025 season.

Justin Fields has not started since Week 6 against the Las Vegas Raiders, but it is clear that he wants to return to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Speaking with Kevin Gorman of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, Fields minced no words when asked about his future with the team.

“I want to be here. I’m kind of tired of learning a new offense every year. This will be my third in four years. Of course, I’d love to be back, but that’s all up to God at the end of the day. I’ll be where God wants me to be,” Fields said to Gorman.

Fields led the Steelers to a 4-2 record during his six starts with the team. He threw for 1106 yards and five touchdowns to one interception through the air while adding 289 rushing yards and five more touchdowns on the ground.

Fields would not cost nearly as much as Russell Wilson, and if Wilson gets too expensive, it would make sense that Fields could return as the Steelers’ starter. They seem to like him, even if they pivoted to the veteran in Wilson.

Fields might not want to learn another offense, which would make sense, but he also may have to go where the opportunity best presents itself to get back on track as a full-time starter. Is Pittsburgh that spot, or will there be another team knocking at his door that can offer a better opportunity?

That is what Fields will have to weigh in his decision this offseason, but the Steelers do seem like a very possible landing spot for Fields after the season concludes.
