The hot streak continued with a third consecutive week of undefeated picks. Now we’re shooting for a month straight.
But this time we have a tough pair of games to pick in the division.
With that said, here are the AFC North blog's picks for Week 9:
Baltimore Ravens (4-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (5-2), Sunday at 1 p.m. ET
Overall record: 17-7
Comment: Picking games in November will be brutal this year.

With that said, here are the AFC North blog's picks for Week 9:
Baltimore Ravens (4-3) at Cincinnati Bengals (5-2), Sunday at 1 p.m. ET
- Analysis: This should be one of the best games of the weekend. But the Bengals are 1-4-1 after byes since 2003 and the Ravens really need this win.
- Pick: Ravens, 23-20
- Analysis: The Broncos proved against Baltimore that they don’t match up well against the physical teams in the AFC North. Pittsburgh is not only physical, but well-rested.
- Pick: Steelers, 21-14
Overall record: 17-7
Comment: Picking games in November will be brutal this year.
