2009 AFC North Predictions Wednesday, September 9, 2009

Finally, the last one. The Steelers' home division plays the NFC North and the AFC West this season. Last year this division was home to both AFC Championship Game participants and between them they had three of the best games of the season.

  1. Pittsburgh Steelers - The World Champs are well-coached, uber-talented, and reasonably focused.
  2. Cincinnati Bengals - The Bengals defense was better than it looked last year, Palmer provides a big boost to the offense, and Marvin Lewis is underrated as a coach.
  3. Baltimore Ravens - Flacco is no savior. The defense is getting older, plus they lost Bart Scott.
  4. Cleveland Browns - The only easier spot to pick was the Lions. Mangini has taken a mess and made it messier.


At some point tomorrow I'll predict wildcards, Super Bowl, etc.
