AFC North Watch: A Steelers’ division roundup

The AFC North is a tough division and only getting tougher.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are currently in first place by virtue of their head-to-head win over the Browns and a better conference record than the Ravens.

While all four AFC North teams have been wildly inconsistent through three weeks, the division remains competitive as promised with a traffic jam at the top.

Here’s what’s on the docket for the AFC North in Week 4:

  • (2-1) Steelers @ (1-2) Texans

  • (2-1) Ravens @ (2-1) Browns

  • (1-2) Bengals @ (1-2) Titans

Great to have another division matchup with Ravens-Browns. One of them has to lose, right? Both teams are evenly matched, so it’s to call who’ll come out with the victory.

The Steelers travel to Houston on Sunday to take on the 1-2 Texans, whose defense is more stingy statistically. The Texans have allowed 117 rushing yards per game (16th) and 223 pass YPG (17th) to Pittsburgh’s 152 and 235.
