The legend of Achilles states that he was dipped in the River Styx as an infant by his mother, making him invulnerable everywhere but the heel that his mother held him by.

After leading the NFL in combined wins in 2023, the division will be returning two starting quarterbacks that ended the year on IR. The Steelers also added Russell Wilson which makes the division even more competitive.

Regardless of how strong each team is, they all have their flaws.
