Last Tuesday, Sports Illustrated magazine ran a story of the fear that lives inside NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. There is the thought, and I’m sure it has crossed a player’s mind that because of the nature of the game they play and love, there is the very present reality of a fatality on the football [...]

The AFC North may be the most competitive division in football. It features only one weak link (Cleveland), a good young team on the rise (Cincinnati), and two perennial contenders (Pittsburgh and Baltimore).
