The Steelers pulled out a crazy 30-27 win over the Browns in week one, and because of that they move up the ladder one notch on the ‘ESPN Power Ranking’ this week from 13 to 12.
Here’s what ESPN had to say about the Black and Gold:
Antonio Brown picked up where he left off (mostly). Five catches, 116 yards and a touchdown seems routine for Brown. A judo kick to a punter’s face was new, though.
12 seems to be about right for the Steelers, this week and next – two primetime road games vs the rival Ravens and then the very tough NFC South Carolina Panthers, will show a LOT more of what this team is made of.
As far as the AFC North goes, the Bengals, with their road win over the Ravens, are 5th, up four spots from 9. The Ravens drop 12 spots from 8 to 20 after their loss to Cincy.
The Browns, who will host the Saints this week, move up one spot from 30 to 29.
