Jamison Hensley on Twitter
“A look at the final four games for the AFC North teams:

Ravens (8-5): vs. GB, at CIN, vs. LAR, vs. PIT
Browns (7-6): vs. LV; at GB, at PIT, vs. CIN
Bengals (7-6): at DEN, vs. BAL, vs. KC, at CLE
Steelers (6-6-1): vs. TEN, at KC, vs. CLE, at BAL

Who's winning this division?”

It will come down to tie-breakers as I think the Ravens, Browns, and Bengals will all wind up at 9-8. The Steelers are losers.

Reason to Hope from Hensley...."According to ESPN’s Football Power Index, the Ravens have a 72% chance of reaching the playoffs if Jackson misses one game because of an ankle injury. Baltimore’s postseason chances are 58% if Jackson is sidelined the rest of the season.

How is this possible for a depleted roster like Baltimore’s? The combination of promising backup quarterback Tyler Huntley, a stingy defense, the most accurate kicker in NFL history and the mediocrity of the AFC North all make the Ravens the favorite to win their third division title in four seasons."

Maybe it's time to dust off the answer lastvused for the nfce.   Can they all lose It?

Nail Biting Update Monday 12/20....

Cincinnati Bengals

What to know: The Bengals are back to first place in the AFC North with their win over the Broncos and the Ravens' loss -- holding the head-to-head tiebreaker over Baltimore. Cincinnati is No. 4 in the AFC and hosts Baltimore next week. 

Remaining schedule: vs. Ravens, vs. Chiefs, at Browns 

Baltimore Ravens

What to know: The Ravens' loss to the Packers knocks them out of the AFC North lead -- and the playoffs altogether. Baltimore is tied with Indianapolis, Los Angeles, and Buffalo for the final playoff spot in the AFC -- but are No. 8 in the conference. The Ravens lose the tiebreaker over the Colts and Chargers based on win percentage in conference games and lose the tiebreaker to the Bills based on Buffalo having a better record in common games. 

Remaining schedule: at Bengals, vs. Rams, vs. Steelers 

Cleveland Browns 

What to know: The Browns will look to join the 8-6 teams battling for a playoff spot -- and a share of the AFC North lead -- with a win over the Raiders on Monday night. 

Remaining schedule: vs. Raiders, at Packers, at Steelers, vs. Bengals 

Pittsburgh Steelers

What to know: The Steelers are a half-game out of the final playoff spot, yet are last in the AFC North and 10th in the conference. Sunday's win over the Titans keeps the Steelers alive in the playoff hunt -- even as Pittsburgh faces three over-.500 teams to close the year. 

Remaining schedule: at Chiefs, vs. Browns, at Ravens NFL 2021 playoff picture, standings: Bengals jump back into first in AFC North, Ravens fall out of playoffs - CBSSports.com

That's logical. this is not a logical season in the AFC. Everybody is eating everybody else, and the Ravens came within 1 point of defeating Rodgers and the Packers. Anything can and will happen this year.

When you have this go down sure.
