Mike Tomlin has said that consistency has been the key to the Cincinnati Bengals' success this season.
The Bengals have eight wins from 14 games this season, and could clinch a wildcard spot in the playoffs at the expense of Tomlin's Pittsburgh Steelers.
The Steelers head coach told the team's website: "They're getting the kind of continuity that's always present in consistent performance.
"They're in their second year with their offensive coordinator in Jay Gruden, and they're also in their second year with quarterback Andy Dalton and receiver A.J. Green who both are big components to what they're doing.
"They went out and acquired BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who is a deliberate and downhill rusher who also does a nice job of protecting the football. They have some nice ingredients for consistent play."
The Steelers face the Bengals this evening.
