DENVER (AP) – Chris Harris Jr. wants to see Antonio Brown in the playoffs – and you can bet the feeling is mutual.

Meantime, Harris figures he’ll just have to start another streak when the Denver Broncos (10-4) host the Cincinnati Bengals (11-3) in a Monday night matchup pitting dominant defenses against novice quarterbacks.

Harris hadn’t surrendered a touchdown in 35 games before Brown scored twice on him in the Steelers’ 34-27 comeback win in Pittsburgh last week.

Harris was lined up in man coverage both times, although on the second score safety Josh Bush was late sliding over to help him.

Still, Harris pointed the blame at himself for Denver’s second straight loss in which they blew a double-digit halftime lead.
