    With our 3 rivals starting 0-1 we could've jumped out to an early lead. Thoughts after watching last night's game was:

    Bengals definitely look beatable and Dalton did not impress. Take AJ away with Haden plus a little pressure and he looks just like our boy.

    Steelers D will keep games close and as long as Ben is back there slobbering around in the pocket that team has a chance.

    9-7 wins this division. I see the NFC North pounding all four teams in the AFC North, and the AFC East isn't a cake walk this year like years past, excluding the Pats.

      The division might be won with less then 9 wins

        Haden cannot cover AJ Green. He's always been the "thorn in his side." Of all the division teams this year, the Browns are worst matched against Cincinnati and I doubt we pull off those games unless something amazing happens...

          The ravens will stumble to a winning season through their D (once it clicks) and Flacco/Rice. The bengals will hit around the same mark as last year - 9-7, 8-8. Steelers and us for the basement it looks like.

          On the plus side, the third round from the ravens looks likely to be a high pick!

            Funny thing is, we are certainly in the division mix after 2 games, and going to play an 0-2 team with very few passing threats and defensive holes... Bengals play Green Bay and Ravens play Houston. We could be 1-2, tied for 1st place... 😁 looking down at the 0-3 Steelers who play Chicago

            Am I just dreaming?

              It's not impossible, but it is predicated on us stopping AP! That'll be the big test of this run defence. Stop him and we *could* win, but we'll need more than 6 points to do it. Perfectly capable of holding the vikings to <18 points, we just need to actually score some of our own for once.

              In gordon we trust.

                You are right about that. AJ has owned Haden...and it goes back to the Georgia/Florida college days. He does well for three quarters and then AJ explodes in the fourth on him
