Here are the most interesting stories Wednesday in the AFC North:
- The Baltimore Ravens are rated very high again in another set of NFL power rankings.
Morning take: Should Baltimore fans start to worry about too much preseason hype? Traditionally, the Ravens perform better as underdogs.
- Is coach Eric Mangini’s reluctance to name a starting quarterback in June a problem for the Cleveland Browns?
Morning take: I’m not buying a quarterback controversy in Cleveland this summer. Jake Delhomme will be the starter in Week 1.
- The Pittsburgh Steelers announced their training camp schedule at Saint Vincent College.
Morning take: In contrast, this could be an interesting training camp at the quarterback position for Pittsburgh.
- Is receiver Antonio Bryant the missing piece for the Cincinnati Bengals’ offense?
Morning take: Bryant should be an upgrade over Laveranues Coles. But I think it will take more of a group effort than one player to make Cincinnati’s passing game explosive this year.
