Josh Brown kicked a 43-yard field goal with four seconds remaining after Ben Roethlisberger threw a costly interception for the second consecutive game and the Bengals made the AFC playoffs – and eliminated the Steelers – with a 13-10 victory Sunday at Heinz Field.

The game looked like it was headed to overtime, but Roethlisberger was picked off by Reggie Nelson at the Steelers' 46 with 14 seconds to play. Andy Dalton then hit A.J. Green down the Cincinnati sideline for 21 yards to set up Brown's second field goal of the game.

The Steelers (7-8) dropped their fifth in six games and are guaranteed of at least their worst record since they went 8-8 in 2006. The Bengals (9-6) made the playoffs for the second straight season, the first time they've done that in 30 years.

Last week, Roethlisberger's interception in overtime created Dallas' game-winning field goal in a 24-21 Cowboys victory.

The Steelers' top-ranked defense shut down the Bengals' running game and mostly contained Dalton, but their offense did almost nothing except for a 60-yard Roethlisberger-to-Antonio Brown touchdown pass in the final minute of the first half.

The Steelers will finish the season next Sunday with a meaningless home game against the Browns.

Brown is 8 for 8 for Cincinnati since signing earlier this month to replace an injured Mike Nugent.
