The offseason questions series continues with a tough division over the years, the AFC North. Let’s address some of the major ones…

A division that has been depicted as rough, rugged, and physical over the years. It is also the home of one of the NFL’s longest tenured teams, arguably the league’s most popular team, a franchise that was behind the most historic team relocation in NFL history and a franchise that has a fair share of downtrodden years and triumphant ones.
