The Pittsburgh Steelers have positioned themselves as the clear favorites in the AFC North after a victory over the Cleveland Browns, according to Sporting News. The win, combined with an injury suffered by Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson, has reshaped the division race heading into the second half of the season.
Sporting News reports that Pittsburgh now looks like the strongest team in the division, with the Browns and Bengals trailing behind. Jackson's injury represents a significant blow to Baltimore's hopes of challenging for the division title, opening the door wider for the Steelers to maintain their lead down the stretch.
With several weeks still remaining in the season, the report notes that Pittsburgh's position gives them a real opportunity to pull away from the rest of the AFC North and cruise toward a division championship.
