7. Pittsburgh Steelers (7) (Play Monday Night)

In their first game of the season, the Steelers travel to the nation’s capital in what should be a fun matchup to watch against the Redskins. While there’s no reason to make early assumptions, the bar is set high for Pittsburgh, as many believe this team has what it takes to set all sorts of records when looking at the kind of weapons they have on offense.

Antonio Brown has established himself as one of the league’s top wide receivers after catching 265 passes over the last two seasons. As long as Brown continues this type of success, there’s every reason to believe the Steelers will live up to the hype of breaking numerous records on offense, but they still have a long way to go.

For starters, the AFC North has always been one of the toughest divisions in football, and if Sunday with the Bengals and Ravens both winning on Sunday, this will most likely be the case once again in 2016.

Next: 6. Houston Texans
