KCF0107 05/01/17 6:55:08 PM #4:	AFC North 1. Baltimore Ravens 2. Pittsburgh Steelers 3. Mexico City Browns 4. Cincinnati Bengals The Ravens are likely here to stay for some time. Even though they always have their fair share of injuries, somebody steps up and they don't lose a beat. They have made the AFC Championship the past two seasons, and I don't see why they can't make it three in a row. The Steelers have infamously choked away a playoff spot in Week 17 to the Browns the past two seasons. They have a balanced team everywhere you look, but without being elite in any one area, they will need to play mistake-free ball for the most part. They have a few injuries, but most are bench players and at O-line where they have plenty of depth. The Browns still have a playoff-caliber team, but they released their top-rated HB, traded their #2 WR, and let their 89 RT walk. They did draft a good replacement for retired OLB Clark Haggans and signed a new #1 CB, so it isn't like it was a significant exodus of talent. However, I think that the disparity has put them below the Steelers and in danger of missing the playoffs for the first time since Season 5. Their total offense and defense both ranked in the 20s last season, the only playoff team from last year to claim that. To avoid a repeat and seeing a corresponding regression in record, they will most importantly need their front seven to stay healthy to help with the effective running attacks that the division employs. The Bengals were not gutted by retirements like they had endured for the previous two off-seasons, but they still play in the murderous AFC North and face the equally murderous NFC East as their non-conference foes. They just can't catch a break. --- KCF can't actually be a real person but he is - greengravy http://i.imgur.com/VfpY7tg.jpg <cite>KCF0107 posted [p:878283912] in Board 8 Na...
