Summary

Another Sunday in 2021, another day when we ask ourselves, "is anyone in the NFL good?" More specifically, is any team in the AFC a legitimate Super Bowl contender?The Baltimore Ravens are holding onto the top seed at the current moment. They also some how eked out a 6-point win over the division rival Cleveland Browns despite Lamar Jackson's 4 interceptions. The New England Patriots housed the Tennessee Titans in a tale of two 8-4 teams trending in wildly opposite directions. Elsewhere in the AFC North, the Cincinnati Bengals blew the doors off the Pittsburgh Steelers for the second time this year.Charles Robinson & Frank Schwab kick off the Sunday night podcast touching on the Thanksgiving day games, but mainly ask the question: is there an AFC team you feel comfortable about winning three games in January?The answer is a resounding: I don't know. Charles & Frank discuss these AFC matchups, the Packers & Buccaneers pulling out strong wins & everything else from Week 12's Sunday action.Stay up to date with the latest NFL news and coverage from Yahoo Sports on Twitter @YahooSportsNFL.Follow Charles @CharlesRobinsonPlease support Terez Paylor's legacy by supporting the Terez A.
