- On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers flew back across the Atlantic after a 24-21 victory in Dublin, Ireland, leaving them atop an AFC North that looks less formidable than four weeks earlier.

- Rivals’ injuries and scoring woes have widened Pittsburgh’s path as the Baltimore Ravens reel, the Cleveland Browns haven’t reached 20 points, and the Cincinnati Bengals are without Joe Burrow.
