In the AFC North opener for the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday at Acrisure Stadium, the Black and Gold handled the Cleveland Browns in a 23-9 win, moving to 4-1 on the season. Most importantly, they’re now 1-0 within the division, too.
In the process of the Steelers rolling to the win over the Browns, the Baltimore Ravens were once again going through another ugly performance at home at M&T Bank Stadium, dropping a tough 17-3 decision to the visiting Los Angeles Rams, sending them to one of the worst starts in franchise history.
A few hours later in the first start of the Joe Flacco era for the Cincinnati Bengals, the Bengals suffered a key injury defensively ahead of a short week, and really had no answers for the Green Bay Packers in a 27-18 loss that wasn’t as close as the final score indicated.
