AFC North: Ravens use loophole to improve 90-man roster

There is an old saying “if you ain’t cheating, you ain’t trying.” Outside of the bad grammar and bad ethics, many Cleveland Browns fans have felt like the Baltimore Ravens, Pittsburgh Steelers and New England Patriots have bought into that saying over the years.

  • The Ravens are known for holding as much as possible in the secondary hoping refs won’t call it all the time
  • The Steelers are often overly physical, some believe dirty, including a lineman jumping on an injured Anthony Walker laying on the ground and taking out Nick Chubb’s knee last year
  • The Patriots have been caught up in a lot of “-gate” situations over the years

While not cheating, Baltimore found another loophole that feels like bending the rules a bit.
