Who Wins The AFCN "Honestly"

[CJD]

Whoever wins the most games (and if there's a tie, whoever wins the most division games).

But honestly, this is why you play the season. Every team can make an argument for who is the "best" team but it doesn't matter if you're more talented if you don't win on the field.

No games are won in the off season. After week 12, there was a very good chance that the Ravens would win the division (they were 8-3). But then injuries and bad play dropped them all the way out of the playoffs when they lost 6 straight games.

That could happen to any of the 4 teams, and the opposite could happen to any of the 4 teams, like when the Bengals won 3 of their last 4 to go from 7-6 to 10-7 and a division win.

I think the odds of division champs would roughly be:
1a. Bengals
1b. Ravens
2. Steelers
3. Browns

But a lot also depends on what the NFL does to Watson. If he's suspended 6, 8 or 17 games, that obviously makes them a non-factor or near non-factor. If they don't suspend him at all and consider last season "time served" they may jump the Steelers in terms of likelihood.
