The AFC North packed a lot into Sunday: a historic international stage for the Steelers, a statement win by the Bengals, and a standings picture that’s getting tighter by the week. All four teams now sport winning records after a busy Week 7 slate.
Steelers: Paris win, Rodgers milestone and WR trade buzz
The Pittsburgh Steelers (5-2) edged the New Orleans Saints 16-10 in a game played at Stade de France in Paris, as reported by La Presse. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers added a unique milestone: per CBS Sports, he is now the first quarterback to play an international game in three different countries in three straight years. CBS also notes that he continues to make history during what is being framed as his final season.
Off the field, Pittsburgh could be looking for help at wide receiver. According to Pro Football Rumors, the Steelers are exploring a trade for a wideout. They sit tied atop the AFC North with Cleveland and will host the Browns next week after dropping the first meeting in Cleveland back in Week 4, per Pro Football Rumors.
Bengals: second-half surge buries the Ravens
The Cincinnati Bengals (4-2) delivered one of the day’s most emphatic results, rolling past the Baltimore Ravens 35-13. La Presse described it as a game of two speeds, with Cincinnati waking up after halftime to seize control against a division rival.
CBS Sports, in its Week 7 overreactions, wonders whether the Ravens could even miss the playoffs after “another blown lead.” That’s CBS’s lens on Baltimore’s situation; in the standings, the Ravens (4-3) remain firmly in the mix in a crowded AFC North.
Browns: narrow win sets up early-season showdown
The Cleveland Browns (5-2) escaped with a 27-24 win over the Tennessee Titans, keeping pace with Pittsburgh at the top of the division. With Pro Football Rumors already circling the Browns–Steelers matchup in Pittsburgh next week, that game is shaping up as an early checkpoint in the AFC North title race.
