AFC North Update


The first place 2-0 Bungles come to Heinz Field this Sunday to play our third place 1-1 Steelers at 1:00. Smack talk has already been flowing between Joey and Chad/TJ. The Bungles feel as if they have something to prove after losing the playoff game against us in January. We all have to remember that the Bungles won the AFC North last year, and we traveled to Cincy as the "supposed" underdog in this Wild Card matchup. After the Bungles game our Steelers have their bye week. We do not want to go into the bye week with a 1-2 record. The other two AFC North teams play each other as well. Baltimore is tied for first place with Cincy with a 2-0 record. The Ravens will travel to Cleveland to play the last place 0-2 Brownies in a 4:05 game. Baltimore has not won in Cleveland in several years. This may be the game to end that streak. The Ravens look like a new team and are playing inspired football with Steve McNair. The question is whether the Ravens (weak) offense line can keep the injury prone McNair off his back. The Ravens Defense is the number one ranked Defense in the league through two games. It will be interesting to see how the AFC North looks like Sunday evening.
