Bengals top AFC North standings as season reaches quarter pole

Four weeks into the season and there’s excitement brewing in Cincinnati.

Not only did Joe Burrow lead the Bengals to a win on Thursday night after trailing 14-0 at half, but it kept the Bengals in first place in the AFC North after four weeks. Of course, they can’t get too complacent. They’ve got two teams breathing down their necks, as the Baltimore Ravens and Cleveland Browns also sit at 3-1.

As for the Pittsburgh Steelers…yeah, things haven’t gone great since the comeback win against the Bills in Week 1.

Current AFC North standings:

1. Bengals 3-1
2. Ravens 3-1
3. Browns 3-1
4. Steelers 1-3

The climb gets a bit steeper this week for the Bengals as Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers come to town. The Ravens will be on Monday Night Football against the Indianapolis Colts and the Browns will be in Los Angeles to take on the Chargers. Pittsburgh returns home Sunday for a date with the Denver Broncos.
