OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- The Baltimore Ravens' biggest rival is the Pittsburgh Steelers, and it's looking like the AFC North title will come down to their Christmas Day showdown in Pittsburgh.
But the Ravens' biggest obstacle over the years has been the Cincinnati Bengals, and Baltimore can take another step toward its first division title in four years (as well as knock Cincinnati out of the playoff race) with an elusive victory over the Bengals this Sunday.
Since the Ravens' last AFC North title in 2012, Baltimore is 6-2 against the Steelers and 6-2 against the Browns.
