I don't know if they are descending as much as not matching up well at all with Burrow and our Offense.
Our Defense even seems to match up well with the Bills.
This happens. Some teams just match up well against certain teams.
It is like us and the Stains, until our second game last season they REALLY had our number.

However, looking at our division, aside from the Bengals, what’s there to get excited about? Ravens? Even if they’re able to retain Lamar, how poisonous would that relationship be between him and the rest of the team? We saw what they were without him.
Browns? What if Watson is mediocre, again? If he doesn’t play at a Pro-Bowl level, where are they? They are strapped for CAP and Draft Capital. Where will they go?
Steelers? In all honesty, they should have either drafted a QB a season earlier than they did or waited until this draft class. There’s just nothing there to get excited about.
The Ratbirds played us really tough last season, same with the Stains once again and the stealers won 7 of their last 8 as Weezy said.
Not saying we have the best Division in football but we all know each other really well and it will be tough once again.
Loved how we won our last 3 Division games though last year and beat the Rats in the Playoffs when we needed to do so the most and
hope this streak continues into this season. Truth on it being so damn early, who knows how things go but it is that time of year.

But the top teams are probably about right.
Yes, we will know more after the Draft and much more when cuts are made after TC. That is when I will really look forward to
rankings, but right now it is nice seeing us at #3 where I agree we should be at this point.
