    What's your prediction for our division this year? It's no secret I'm not happy Ben is back, so here's mine:

    1. Baltimore 12-5
    2. Cleveland 11-6
    3. Pittsburgh 7-10 Tomlin's first losing season
    4. Cincinnati 5-12

    1 and 2 could possibly be flipped depending on injuries. Bengals are still a few years away. Steelers are wasting a season with Ben, imho.

    I got no idea. This season is unlike others where we are fairly certain to contend. It could go much better than the analysts think.

    Watch how good the run game is against the Bills. If it goes poorly and we revert to Ben throwing short passes almost every play, then we are in trouble.

    Would like to see a game where we put up 200 run yards and Ben has "efficient" day and throwing no picks which would be near certain victory. We need to revert to the 2005 team more or less, but doubt we can get all the way there. This would require Ben to go along with that, reducing him to support roll instead of being the whole offense.

    6-11.... but yeah, you got it close.

    If Rudolph plays for the majority of the season... we may get 10 wins

    Reverse the top 2 and that's mine. Too many question marks, too hard a schedule. A couple key injuries -- not even to Ben -- and I think it will be too much to overcome.

    1.Baltimore 11-6
    2 Cleveland 11-6
    3. Steelers 10-7
    4. Cincinnati 7-10

    I have a hard time believing that we will be utter trash like some believe.
    Would not surprise to see 3 AFC North teams in the playoffs again just like last year.

    We won’t be and I’m going to enjoy serving up the crow when it’s over.

    That’s a fair prediction you have. Depending on Ben’s health, I don’t think they finish with less then 10 wins.

    It would also require the Defense 2 be as good as 2005, and that isn't happening.

    This is so hard. (TWSS)

    I mean, injuries are always a part of the landscape. But we're playing this season on borrowed time with our QB. So his health will determine the outcome of the division.

    If he somehow finishes the season upright, it means something went incredibly right. It means the OL kept the grass stains on his jersey to a minimum. And it means his body miraculously didn't break down, because I think for the first time, there is a leash on him, regardless of length.

    And if that pipe dream comes to fruition:

    Steelers 12-5
    Cleveland 11-6
    Baltimore 10-7
    Cincinnati 8-9

    If we only have Ben for half the season:

    Cleveland 12-5
    Baltimore 11-6
    Steelers 10-7
    Cincinnati 8-9

    If Ben goes down in the first 3 games (meaning he'll be in and out of the lineup the rest of the season at best):

    Cleveland 13-4
    Baltimore 12-5
    Cincinnati 9-8
    Steelers 9-8

    For that to happen, there need to be a lot of wins outside the North.
