All the AFC-N teams collapsed today.

It was a great day then!

Didn't something similar happen last year during our bye week?

GO BENGALS

       

Yesterday was incredible.  Keep going outside just the AFC North:  

Denver lost to 0-3 Raiders

Pats lost to Packers

Jags lost to Eagles

The only thing that could have made it better was the Chargers and Chiefs losing....

BTW, I took extra pleasure in watching Kenny Pickett's debut and three INTs, which lost them the game.  He actually looked pretty good outside those throws, but wow.  The steeler fans were slobbering all over themselves going nuts when he QB sneaked a ball in to the endzone for a TD early on.  Then, the Jets came back to steal the win in pittsburgh.  Hilarious.

Ravens players and coaches getting in each other’s faces while we stuck together after a bad start.

This is the last weekend we won’t have an outright lead for the rest of the season.

Book it

steelers were a missed PAT away from being 0-4.  I joked that it was ok, because it kept them from getting CJ Stroud.

Wow

That said, the Rat Turds are going to bring their A-game Sunday after the 2 heart breakers and at home to the Fins and Bills

There is dissention in the ranks of said rat turds as well... Apparently, there was a call to let the Bills score a TD at the end, but some Ravens must not have heard the order because they tackled the RB at the three yard line.  Marcus Peters lost his mind and was seen on camera after the loss screaming at someone on the sideline and had to be restrained.  Par for the course for that feminine hygiene product, but good to see nonetheless.

Yeah, and the Browns have an AFC loss as well against the Jets ( )

The Rats have two AFC losses against the Pats and Bills

The steelers have three AFC losses against the Browns, Pats, and now Jets ( )

The second and most likely tie breaker is conference record.  Still, I don't really worry too much about these things at week 4.  The Bengals are back even and they haven't come close to playing their best football.

The Jets went 2-2 in the AFC North.  Not bad all things considered.  They have weapons and I was REALLY impressed with Wilson yesterday.  Stood tough in the pocket under significant pressure.  Coaches gave him a moving pocket a lot as well.  (Novel concept)

If they had any offensive line, they could be a contender.   They lost ANOTHER OT yesterday.  Feel kind of bad for their fans, like the Lions.

Not sure if any of their OTs are expected back this season, but they could be a sneaky team.  Going 2-2 against the AFC North is nothing to sneeze at, especially when you consider it was to start the season.

Ravens are 0-2 at HOME..... Bengals coming to town this Sunday.

0-3 at Home normally would be a death nail for most teams.

Ravens have lost their last 5 games at home.

That's insane.... unfortunately they are due.  Hope the streak lasts 1 more week.
