After losing four of the last five games, including losing to the Ravens once and the Steelers twice, the Bengals aren't really in position to win the AFC North anymore. For a while they were the top team in the division, even the top team in the entire conference, but that's not the case anymore. Now the Bengals just have to focus on winning the last three games to squeak into the playoffs as a wildcard team.... but that's a lot easier said than done.
But before we get too far ahead of ourselves, here's what's currently going on around the AFC North according to each team's SB Nation site.

- The Ravens ability to stay healthy has led to their success in 2011.

From Behind the Steel Curtain:
- Has the NFL "painted themselves into a corner" by suspending James Harrison?
- Five burning questions as the Steelers enter the last three weeks of the 2011 regular season.
