AFC North Power Rankings: Baltimore Ravens fly high
By Alex Fasano
The AFC North brought plenty of action, and a handful of wins to the table in Week 3. Causing a shakeup in the Power Rankings, and the Baltimore Ravens to reclaims fame.
Three weeks in the rear view mirror as the 2018 NFL season continues to aggravate fans everywhere. Josh Allen beats the Vikings, nobody can touch a quarterback anymore (I feel for you Clay Matthews), and the Browns finally did it…they won a game! Within the madness of the season, the AFC North continues to produce some pretty exciting showdowns for the fans. Check out your favorite division’s power rankings!
1. Baltimore Ravens (2 – 1)
When this team plays hard, they can be tough to beat. A 2-1 record to start the season, Alex Collins is finding his rhythm, and Joe Flacco is playing decent football. They beat the Broncos 27-14, thanks to Flacco’s 227 yards and one touchdown.
Alex Collins went for 68 yards on 18 carries. I understand the numbers don’t look appealing, but Collins has found his grove and shows a power-running back style that Ravens fans (and fantasy owners) can really get behind. Baltimore played great, but the defense allowed Denver to rush for 120 yards, and only managed one interception.
The Ravens look to carry the momentum into next week when they head to Pittsburgh for a grudge match on Sunday.
