With all 32 teams now having their annual OTA practices underway, a quick look at the betting odds at a few online sportsbooks shows that the Pittsburgh Steelers aren’t even the current favorites to win the AFC North division in 2019. Instead, the Cleveland Browns are favored to win the division in 2019 and that’s a feat that hasn’t happened since the AFC North was created in 2002. In short, the Steelers are expected by many to battle the Baltimore Ravens for second place in the AFC North in 2019.
