It took 16 weeks, but someone finally put some distance between themselves and the rest of the field in the AFC North division. By virtue of Sunday's 41-21 win over the , the now have a hold on first place in the NFL's tightest division with two weeks left in the regular season. But Cincinnati still has work to do if they are going to complete the task of winning the North for the first time since 2015.The Bengals are the front-runner, but each of the division's four teams still has a path toward a division title. Cincinnati controls its own destiny, while the Ravens, and will have to win and rely on outside help if they are going to capture the North. Each team is also still in position to capture a playoff berth, but given where the , , , and currently are in the standings, Khem Birch Jersey a division will be the clearest path to the playoffs for the AFC North's four teams.Let's take a look at how each AFC North team can capture the division during the regular season's final two weeks, along with the scenario that we most expect will play out.Record: 9-6 (4-1 in the AFC North)Current seed in AFC standings: 3rdRemaining games: vs. Kansas City, at ClevelandAFC North division scenarios:Defeat Kansas City on Sunday, orDefeat Cleveland in Week 18, orOne lo s each by Ravens, Steelers, and Browns (Week 17 vs. Steelers)Most likely scenario:The Bengals are certainly capable of upsetting the , but the likelier bet is that Cincinnati will need to beat the Browns in Week 18 in order to clinch the North. The Bengals may not even have to win another game if the Browns lose to the Steelers on Monday, the Ravens lose at home to the on Sunday and the Steelers fall in Baltimore in Week 18. Regardle s, if appears that a win in Cleveland will be the Bengals' best chance at winning the franchise's first division crown in six years, especially if the Browns have nothing to play for.Record: 8-7 (1-4 Penny Hardaway Jersey in the AFC North)Current seed in AFC Standings: 7thRemaining games: vs. Rams, vs. SteelersAFC North division scenario:Defeat Rams and Steelers, and Bengals lose to Chiefs and BrownsMost likely scenario:Baltimore is the only team in the division that will finish the regular season with two home games. Like the Bengals, the Ravens will host a team in Week 17 that has already clinched a playoff berth but is still in the hunt to win their conference's No. 1 seed. The Ravens have lost four straight Michael Carter-Williams Jersey , but three of those lo ses were in one-po se sion games. Baltimore is certainly capable of beating the Rams if either or are available, but similar to Kansas City, it's hard to pick against a Los Angeles team that has won four straight games. Baltimore's hopes of an AFC North division title likely end on Sunday, but they will have a chance a making the playoffs if they can beat the Steelers at home in their regular-season finale. Record: 7-7-1 (2-2 in the AFC North)Current seed in AFC standings: 10thRemaining games: vs. Browns, at RavensAFC North division scenario:Defeat Cleveland and Baltimore, and Bengals lose to the Chiefs and BrownsMost likely scenario:The Steelers already beat both of their final two opponents, so it's certainly feasible to think that Pittsburgh could win out and give themselves a chance at winning the division. The Steelers will have an added incentive to defeat the Browns on "Monday Night Football" in what will likely be final game at Heinz Field, so the Steelers will likely enter their Week 18 game against the Ravens needing a win to give themselves a chance at making the playoffs and/or winning the division if the Bengals fall to the Chiefs this Sunday.Pittsburgh is in a unique position in that they will not have to worry about any tiebreakers a suming that they remain the only AFC team with a tie. If they win two and finish 9-7-1, the Steelers would make the playoffs over any 9-8 team. Conversely, Pittsburgh will likely fail to quality for the playoffs at 8-8-1 unle s the Chargers, Ravens Jordan Bone Jersey and Chargers lose out, the Dolphins go 1-2 down the stretch, and the Browns and split their final two games.Record: 7-8 (2-2 in the AFC North)Current seed in the AFC standings: 12thRemaining games: at Steelers, vs. BengalsAFC North division scenario:Defeat Pittsburgh and Cincinnati, Bengals lose out, Ravens lose one of their final two gamesMost likely scenario:The Browns have been plagued by injuries and positive COVID-19 cases. They have also failed to get many favorable bounces in key moments as they are 4-6 in one-score games. While a lot has to go in their D.J. Augustin Jersey favor, the Browns could pull off the improbable, a suming they can handle their own busine s during the season's last two games. Cleveland had its best performance of the season in Week 9 when they left Cincinnati with a 41-16 win. The Browns won't be lacking any confidence when the Bengals come to town in Week 18, but first, the Browns need to win in Pittsburgh -- the site of last year's wild-card win over the Steelers -- if their regular season finale is going to have any playoff significance. That makes next Monday night's game a must-win for both the Steelers and Browns, a fact that will only elevate what should be a memorable night at Heinz Field.
