2008 finish: Steelers (12-4), Ravens (11-5), Bengals (4-11-1), Browns (4-12)
I pick my beloved Browns because I like fantasy. I remember glory years, way back. If they could just bring back some respect from Pitts.

I respect ALL football fans, however,... how could anyone believe that the Browns or Bengals could win the AFC North??? Maybe, alcohol was involved?

The thought of Cincy or Cleveland winning AFC North is crazy. Alcohol and drugs had an impact on those 60 odd votes above. Go RAVENS!!!!

Truly, Parity in the NFL is the most of all other sports! The Steelers are the luckiest team in NFL history to ever win a Super Bowl in the 21st Century. You cannot I repeat... CANNOT use last years record to determin the winners as it proves inaccurate year after year after year. The Steelers will win 9 games and will not even get a wildcard bid due to the fact that "Karma" has caught up with them. Ben's life is a distraction to the team regardless of being innocent or not.
Then there is his achilles tendon, as soon as he tries to avoid a sack you will hear it POP!! and he will be done for the season. Batch will do a decent job and their D will be awesome as usual. None the less 9 wins will not be enough. The Bengals will be one game better and win the division with more than 5 players who will go to the Pro Bowl this year!
Go ahead and Flame me thats a typical responce. But deep down you have to realize that the Steelers are not all that.

I don't want to flame you, I pray for you because you obviously have some sort of mental disorder! How are the Steelers lucky when they had the hardest schedule in the NFL? The Steelers winning this year has nothing to do with last years record, but the fact that they are returning 20 of 22 starters and ALL of the coaches are returning! Once again, you are proof that people should not use the computer after drinking!!!

For all you soothsayers of the football world, here is a dose of reality. Once the pre-season is over and the hits are for real the Steelers defense will show the rest of the NFL world how things are meant to be done. Then when offense takes the field all hell will break loose on the scoreboard. Watch and be amazed at how easy the Steelers make it look this year.

I can understand why you might think it would be difficult for the Steelers to repeat, but how can you possibly believe the Bengals are going to win the AFC North? The Ravens maybe, but the Bengals? I know they are probably better this season than last season (maybe) but the Bengals? Come on!!!

Notice to all Steeler haters (e.g., ravens, bengals, browns, cowboys, raiders, patties, etc. etc. etc.):
We hate you six times as much.
And at the end of this season we will hate you seven times as much. :-)

Hating the Steelers is like hating your mother. How could you? They respresent everything right, not only about the NFL, but rather sports in general. Family owned for 75 years, hard working-blue collar people. Don't draft pretty boys or flamboyant players or players in trouble. Dan Rooney believes in fairness (see Rooney Rule). No show boating (See Joey Porter). Just humble people who believe hard work's the only way to having a decent life. Don't hate, congradulate when you have the opportunity. There's a reason why the Steelers have the most Super Bowl Rings & are the most consistant franchise in sports.

I TOTALLY agree!!! Just look at Polamalu. His faith, lifestyle, and his family values say more about him than anything................except when he's on the field..................

After listening to the incessant sound of Steeler fans kicking sand in our faces for years, I just can't take it any more! The arrogance that Steeler fans have is the thing that I despise. After years of winning, I can understand how the arrogant attitude starts to build. You see it now with the Patriots after being cellar dwellers for decades. Even Pittsburgh suffered through years of mediocrity, but they forget that. I hope this attitude continues through the game this Sunday. Maybe Cincy will catch them sleeping and can wallop them like they did the Pack.

Go ahead Steeler fans keep doubting.... Ravens, Bengals are the real deal. I don't care if you have 50 championships. What have you done this year is what we are talking about.

Yeah it's early but the Bengals just may prove that they are the real deal. I'm telling ya you can't go by previous years every year is a new year and the most determines healthy teams win. So for now... Us Bengals fans have the right to gloat just a little we have more work to do to get better.
