I know Raiders beat the Browns and Chiefs beat the Steelers......and that Bengals win over Seattle, I don't look for any other team in the AFC North to beat Seattle. Bengals will gain a game on all 3 teams over the Seattle win. ....and the Bengals are 3 games ahead of Steelers, so that means Steelers are NOT in control of their own destiny and will need outside help to catch the Bengals....and Steelers are going to take a loss at Seattle November 29th........The Bengals have beat teams that other AFC North teams have lost to, and that is a huge extra bonus in the standings.

If the Panthers offense could beat Seattle at home, no reason to think the Steelers offense can't.

first tie breaker is head to head games, second is division record, third is common opponant. The Steelers haven beaten the Rams, 49ers and Cards so we will have to win those. But more importantly, we both still have the Broncos, both Browns games, 1 Balt and of course 2 with each other. Yes, the Steelers will need help even if they beat us twice because of their Baltimore and Chiefs loss. But the bengals just need to worryy about themselves and keep winning. .

I wouldn't sleep on the Steelers offense, and who they are capable of beating with Big Ben back. We'll know more a week from today as it relates to how close we are to locking the division up.

Tons of football to be played. Bengals can't afford a letdown, especially after their first loss. They can't let one loss turn into two or three. They play .500 football the rest of the way, they'll win the division more than likely.

I never thought a Landry Jones/Mike Vick Steelers team beats Arizona...and I never thought a Jamaal Charles/Jeremy Maclin-less Chiefs team beats Pittsburgh.
It's the NFL. Anything can happen.

The AFC wins are nice to have esp if we finish with the same record as the Cheaters I mean Patriots.

I don't really consider Seattle's offense to be all that dynamic.
