AFC North

Baltimore Ravens 11-2

The Ravens could lose the AFC North, but it’s not going to happen. They will beat the Jets on a short week and then beat a struggling Browns team to lock up the top seed before the final week of the season.

Remaining Schedule:  Jets, @Browns, Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers 8-5

Remaining Schedule: Bills, @Jets, @Ravens
