AFC North Standings: Division is wide open after Steelers fall to Ravens in Week 9

Just when you thought the Pittsburgh Steelers would defeat the Baltimore Ravens in Week 9 and give the AFC North at least one team considered legitimate. What happened? Well, let’s just say the AFC North is the king of mediocrity after Week 9 of NFL action.

Let’s take a look at what went down in the AFC North in Week 9, and moving forward.

Dallas Cowboys - 35
Cleveland Browns - 10

The Browns haven’t won a game yet this year, but what can you expect when the team has no clue who will be under center on a week-by-week basis? Dallas worked the Browns in every way imaginable, and you have to wonder if Cleveland will win a game in 2016.

Week 10 opponent: at Baltimore (Thursday Night Football)

Pittsburgh Steelers - 14
Baltimore Ravens - 21

There were times throughout the game where it looked as if the team which sucked the worst was going to win. The game was riddled with penalties, poor decision making and just a flat out poorly played game. Nonetheless, the Steelers lose, and lost control of the division all in the same week.
