predictions (AFC North)

Well I know it's week 3 in the NFL but I am going to start making predictions about all the divisions and conferences.

Baltimore Ravens
The Ravens have added depth to their offense with WR Anquan Boldin. They mostly picked up Defensive rookies in the draft but I don't think they're going to make a difference. They traded their first round draft pick for a second round pick, a third round pick and a fourth round pick. So far the ravens are 2-1 losing to the Cincinnati Bengals. Prediction: a close second to the Bengals the reason I have come to that conclusion is that the ravens QB (Joe Flacco is still lagging some energy or something and is throwing to many interceptions for my liking but their running game shall keep them alive and well and Baltimore should go deep into the play-offs. Predicted 2nd in the AFC North .

Cincinnati Bengals
The Bengals seem to be filled with talent nearly everywhere you look on the roster. Since they acquired Antonio Bryant back in March things seemed to be looking up and then when the Bengals decided to sign T.O. Things were looking even more up. Antonio Bryant was let go as effect of the Bengals being over the salary cap. Oklahoma University TE was the Bengals round 1 draft pick and is looking to make immediate effect with his body catching. The Bengals have 4th toughest schedule this season and will be looking to star Running back Cedric Benson for another top class season. So far the Bengals are also 2-1 with wins against Baltimore and Carolina and a loss to New England. My prediction is that with a hard nose Defense and an amazing kicker in Mike Nugent that alone will be able to carry them but with fantastic running game and a nearly close to perfect passing game they should at least get into the wild card round of the play-offs and a 1st place in the AFC North.

Cleveland Browns
The Browns are technically an old franchise except for the fact they were founded in the late 1990s so Cleveland are really a team in the making. The last time they were in the play-offs was in 2002 that's 8 years ago. The main acquisition was vet QB Jake Delhomme. Delhomme is quite frequently picked off . In my view I think that the Browns should come in 3rd in the AFC North. But it is likely that they will come 4th.

Pittsburgh Steelers
The Steelers have a problem in the fact that Ben Roethlisburger has been suspended for 4-6 weeks. They didn't sign anyone over the off-season. There Defense are looking very strong with Troy Polamalu back from his Madden Curse season. There other problem is Santonio Holmes Since he is a NY Jet. The Steelers are looking to be 4th place in the AFC North they could be lucky and get 3rd place in the AFC North.
