I'm a Brengals fan and watch all of their games and sometimes I have friends over while the games are on who don't watch football. I don't even know how many times I've heard "wow these guys really hate each other" during the divisional matchups. Watching some random AFC West vs AFC East game or whatever and then a Bengals-Ravens game is like watching two different sports. And I love it so much! It does suck because of injuries and that I think the NCF north teams just get drained more over the course of the season than any other team, and that's even when the Division isn't also full of contenders like it is currently. So it makes the path to the super bowl harder for these teams, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. It feels like the most pure, true, competitive football you can find on tv. These teams go harder against each-other in a means nothing game than half the NFL do in a playoff game.

As a Bengals fan, while I agree 100% about Bengals' run game, the defense is vastly different from last year. Stone and Bell are a much better combo than Hill and Scott was at Safety and that was where the crux of the issue on defense was. Neither Scott nor Hill could communicate and that led to issues in front of them. That's been fixed, so the passing defense is looking SO much better this year (to Burrow's annoyance in practice). Dax Hill has been looking stellar as a boundary CB now (to the point that Caleb Williams was too scared to throw his way in the preseason game). The run defense... it is hard to predict til the front four play together, cause Anarumo is completely changing the DL schemes with Reader gone now. Plus, Bengals got so many good linebackers that they are debating running 6 LBs instead of the normal 5 cause Njongmeta and Heyward are doing exceptionally well. The entire air to the starting and even some depth in the defense got the 2022 lockdown defense feel to it and I can't wait to see what they have in store. Just today, Bengals starting D locked down the Colts starting O so badly that they were complaining about needing a better challenge. 🤣 Despite all the injuries happening in preseason, I'm still optimistic about Bengals chances, especially with a likely easier schedule than the Ravens, Browns, and Steelers.

My hope as a Steelers fan is that we can't possible do worse with Russel Wilson or Justin Fields at QB than we did with the combined efforts of Trubisky, Pickett, and Rudolph. If they managed to go 10-7 with that QB room, the tragedy of an OC that was Matt Canada, firing said OC mid season, and the wrecking ball that went through the MLB room (remember, they had to bring back Myles Jack near the end of the season just to have enough bodies in that position,) surely they can do at least as well this year.

Aww... I was kinda hoping you'd start off the AFC with the South, though I certainly understand starting with the North...

The Steelers are always an interesting team to predict. They always like to play the tough opponents well and usually they play the easy ones terrible and win by the skin of their teeth. Last year for the week by week predictions you got every Steeler game wrong until like week 15. They are just so unpredictable and you can’t every get your hopes up which is what I did last year😣

The Bengals got better in every area you listed as a concern from last year, and Burrow is healthy. Mixon is not a loss any Cincy fan is worried about. They will win the division and their ceiling is 13-4.

It really is tho. Best offensive line he's ever had, best TE in Mike Gesicki he's ever had, Joe Mixon to Zach Moss is no big concern considering we finished 31st in rushing last year, so really we couldnt possibly be any worse, way easier schedule, and replaced all of our holes on defense. Now that doesnt mean the defense is fixed, but every area was patched up or worked on for sure. Went 1-5 last season in the division, so again I'd take the over this year. Better defense, best offense/roster Joe's ever had, and very easy schedule. It's absolutely possible Bengals get 13-14 wins if it all goes right.

Tom, I appreciate that you sense how hard us fans have it in the AFC North when it comes down to figuring out how well we will do. However, I hope your predictions are not wrong :) BTW that intro was spot on.

I'm gonna be real honest with you, Grossi...I don't envy the man who puts his AFCN predictions on the internet for everyone to see. This division (I'm a Bengals fan) is unsane and unpredictable. This is Joe Burrow's first ever full training camp and preseason, though. And he played in the preseason. I think the Bengals are running it this year.

Brandon 11 is easily one of my favorite players in the NFL. I want to keep him & I'm pissed we didn't handle this a year earlier. John Lynch should've been preparing way earlier than he did.
