Three weeks into the 2008 regular season, let's take a look at who's hot and who's not in the AFC North division:

Suggs

Who's hot?

1. Terrell Suggs, LB, Baltimore Ravens

The entire Ravens defense was clicking once again, but no one player was a bigger nuisance to the Cleveland Browns than Suggs. Baltimore's linebacker/defensive end hybrid recorded three tackles, two sacks, an additional quarterback hit and a forced fumble. Suggs was in Browns quarterback Derek Anderson's face at some point in nearly every series.

Houshmandzadeh

2. T.J. Houshmandzadeh, WR, Cincinnati Bengals

For four quarters, the Bengals' offense resembled some of its old performances and that included getting the ball to Houshmandzadeh early and often. The eight-year veteran recorded 12 catches for 146 yards and a touchdown. The valiant effort was almost enough to lead Cincinnati to an upset win over the New York Giants.

3. Ed Reed, S, Baltimore Ravens

Reed

Reed is playing with a nagging pain in his neck, but that didn't stop him from making a game-changing, 32-yard interception return for a touchdown. He read the eyes of Anderson and broke on the football in stride. He also had two tackles and two pass defenses.

Who's not?

1. Pittsburgh Steelers offensive line

How quickly can stock values change? The Steelers have been a fixture in the hot column this season. Yet for the first time, following a 15-6 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, their offensive line claims the top spot in the "not" category. Giving up a whopping nine total sacks will do that.

Anderson

2. Derek Anderson, QB, Cleveland Browns

Not very far behind Pittsburgh's offense line was the ice-cold performance from Anderson. He completed 14 of 37 passes for 125 yards, one touchdown and three interceptions. What was worse for Cleveland is it came in a game the Browns absolutely needed to win. Although the Browns are not tipping their hand, Anderson's leash likely is as short as it's ever been.

Wimbley

3. Kamerion Wimbley, LB, Cleveland Browns

We've erred on the side of caution the past two weeks before putting Wimbley on this list. We kept hearing that his motor is constantly going and he's close to making an impact. But Sunday against Baltimore, Wimbley had just three tackles and no quarterback pressures. He was expected to wreak havoc with Cleveland's pickup of linemen Shaun Rogers and Corey Williams, but we simply haven't seen it.
