Hard Knocks, AFC North is gonna be a bust, huh?

[madinsomniac]

So this hard Knocks debuts December 3rd.

In that time the Steelers play at Cleveland and at Cinci
The Ravens play at the Chargers and home vs the Eagles
The Bengals have a bye then play home vs the Steelers
And the Browns play home vs the Steelers and away vs Denver

Its realistic the steelers could be 10-2, the ravens at 7-6, the Bengals at 4-8 and the Browns at 2-10... this would not be compelling down the stretch...

I guess the steelers could be focusing on the top seed and the ravens in a playoff battle, but the Bengals and Browns will be out.. not the down the stretch, neck to neck bloodbath the division was expected to be

Im trying to formulate storylines in my head... there will be the Lamar mvp thing, the Russel Wilson thing, TJ dpoy... Henry if he keeps challenging for the rushing lead at 30... maybe the higgans ufa thing in cinci.. i mean it isnt that full of storylines this year, is it?

You forgot Tomlin's non-losing season.

You forgot Tomlin's non-losing season.

That will hopefully be settled Thursday

I don't think the Ravens will go 0-2 in those games. We have Jackson's number, the rest of the league does not in the regular season, remember the Rats are #1 in almost every offensive category in the league. I think it will take beating the Rats in their house to truly ice the division

I do think the Bungles and Stains are toast tho

I never expected us to be 8-2. I give Tomlin credit as I chew on crow jerky.

I have been wrong about a bunch of things this season.

1. I thought the Bengals, with their cupcake schedule, would probably win the division
2. I thought the Browns would regress and miss tge playoffs, but more along the 8-9 type of bad... not the, " lets see if we can blow another 1st overall pick type bad...
3. I thought the ravens would regress, but i never thought their defense was going to turn into trash against the pass like it has
4. I was totally wrong about the WR corps.. Van Jefferson is not good enough
5. I thought we were way improved, but not challenging for the top seed ten games into the season improved...
