    They paid joe falco( ) all this ludicrous amounts of money and proceed to clean house. It's so stupid.

    Teams broke now. Mediocre QB has all their money.

    Ravens are the Florida Marlins of the NFL? (I generally hate analogies of the NFL to other sports, but this one fits.)

    I know paying Flacco seems dubious, but it's easy to forget how hard it is to find a QB that can win in the playoffs.

    They will never be able to replace Ray Lewis.........

    They will go 7-9 this year, if they are lucky.........

    Ravens will lose Anquan Boldin, Ray Lewis and Ed Reed. I agree probably 7-9 or 8-8 next season.

    Steelers win AFC Central easily, and they are trimming the fat too.

    The Bengals are the new powerhouse of the AFC north,which will make the division the weakest in the AFC.............

    Are Paul Brown, Andy Dalton, and Marvin Lewis still in Cinncy? If so, Pittsburgh has no need to worry.

    I agree...the ravens are taking a couple steps backwards now.

    They won't be that bad, but no more return trips to the super bowl under the flacco contract.

    Baltimore was 10-6 this year, and limped into the playoffs. You're telling me that they're only 2 losses worse with all these losses?

    Pretty sure they have a tough schedule, top 5 toughest if I remember. This sets up to be an absolute decimation.

    If the steelers are in decline then what does that say about the bengals.

    the bengals have been a playoff team two years in a row. although they have no success the past 25 years it seems to me they are getting better. they will certainly finish ahead of the steelers this coming season barring a major injury. the steelers are getting old. polamalu and ben are always hurt. the core of this team is vastly worn out and aged.

    The Browns will probably finish ahead of Pittsburgh.

    Save 1,000 points in the fall. I'll be glad to take that bet. Steelers will finish ahead of the streaking bengals.
