Summary

Our 2024 Division Preview Series is here, and we're starting with a bang. The AFC North sent three teams to the playoffs last year, and that didn't include the Bengals, a team that went to two straight AFC Championship Games, as well as a Super Bowl, with a healthy Joe Burrow. What are we excited about for each of these teams? What's keeping us up at night? What does success look like? Robert Mays and Derrik Klassen answer those questions and more about the Ravens, Browns, Steelers and Bengals on this episode of The Athletic Football Show.

But I'm back at the Detroit Lions facility today recording in this little soundproof room that they have. So for those of you watching on YouTube wondering what the egg curtains on the wall are that that's what's going on right now. we are also at the point in the calendar we are digging into our division previews.
