During most of the 2000s, the Steelers had a glaring advantage over their AFC North rivals. Not only did the Steelers possess a stellar defense for many years, but their quarterback was also the best in the division for over a decade.
Unfortunately, the tides could turn against Pittsburgh very soon. The days of top-notch quarterback play from Ben Roethlisberger are dwindling fast, and may already be gone. In his place, new franchise quarterbacks are stepping up to be the best in the AFC North.
Though the Ravens were embarrassed by the Tennessee Titans in the playoffs, Lamar Jackson is one of the youngest starting quarterbacks in the league after an MVP caliber season.
