Gronk didn't have any catches in the first half. I think they're the only threat in the AFC, especially since the Broncos look like garbage with Peyton throwing ducks. Let's hope the Steelers don't continue to get lucky.
WHO DEY
I would not sleep on the Steelers. I see the AFC as follows:
1. Pats
2. Bengals
3. Steelers
4. Broncos
The Steelers defense held the Cardinals to 13 points (playing with 2 back up QB's) in spite of their offense struggling and putting Cards back on the field quickly. They get Ben back and they may have a better offense than anyone in the NFL.
As for the Pats, all teams are beatable, but Brady sure looks like he is on a mission and determined. Injuries will play a huge part as the year progresses. The Steelers just lost a very good LT for the year and likely Pouncey is done in 2015 also. They can not afford to lose another OL.
The Pats also have OL issues so we need to keep an eye on it.
Let's hope we stay healthy and even get healthier getting Burfict and our 1st round OL pick back in the coming weeks. Many forget he was a top 5 projected pick prior to getting hurt in his bowl game last year. If healthy, he could be another stud OL.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
