The Cincinnati Bengals made the biggest statement on Sunday, defeating the Pittsburgh Steelers 10-41. The game was over as soon as it started, with the Bengals jumping out to an early 14 point lead. The Bengals swept the season series with the Steelers and now have their sights set on the throne of the AFC North. Could it finally be the end of an era for Pittsburgh?

The defending champs were looking to avoid a three-game losing streak on Sunday, and they did just that. Behind the performance of Leonard FOURnette, the Bucs avoided their third straight loss in a tough outing against the Indianapolis Colts. The Buccaneers are trending in the right direction at the perfect time, just like Brady planned all along.

America’s Game of The Week on FOX looked to be a dandy between the Los Angeles Rams and Green Bay Packers. What fans actually got to see was a complete domination by the Packers. Rams QB Matthew Stafford had nightmares of performances from his past in his dreadful outing at Lambeau Field. The Packers were in control from the opening kick and look to be the top team in the NFC right now.
Sunday Night Snoozefest

— Baltimore Ravens (@Ravens) November 29, 2021
The Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns treated fans to a game they could’ve turned off at halftime. The Ravens took home a huge AFC North victory in the ugliest Sunday night game of the entire year. Lamar Jackson tossed four interceptions in a winning effort, while Baker Mayfield finished the game with no interceptions in a loss. Both teams can’t be thrilled with their performances as a surging Bengals team continues to climb up the AFC North standings. The AFC North is up for grabs. Who will take advantage of it?
