Raise your hand if you truly predicted the Pittsburgh Steelers would be in the driver’s seat of the AFC North heading into their bye week. You may have said they would be, but did you truly believe it?
And yet here we are. The Steelers are 6-2 and a game up on the Baltimore Ravens after eight games. The Cincinnati Bengals sit two games back of the Ravens at 3-5 and the Cleveland Browns are in last at 2-6.
Will the Steelers give fans a treat and remain the top dog in the AFC North? Or are we all being tricked into them being a contender for the division crown?
