Can the Steelers Repeat?
The AFC North was a top-heavy division in 2008. Both Baltimore and Pittsburgh won double digit games, while Cincinnati and Cleveland both managed only 4 wins. Although only the 6th seed, the Ravens wrecked havoc in the playoffs, beating Miami and Tennesee before advancing to play the Steelers in the AFC Championship game. The Steelers would come out on top, of course, and go on the win the Superbowl. The Bengals lost franchise Quarterback Carson Palmer early on with an arm injury and never recovered. The Browns failed to capitalize on their 10 win season in 2007. Derek Anderson came back to earth, and Braylon Edwards was plagued by dropped passes. With Cleveland and Cincinnati starting to rebuild, can Pittsburgh become the first team since New England to repeat? Or will Joe Flacco lead the Ravens to a division title this season?
