NFL Week 6 grades for every team: Browns take AFC North lead, Colts collapse

Welcome to the Week 6 grades!

You know the NFL season has been turned upside down when the Cleveland Browns are in first place, and that’s exactly what we have after their wild comeback win over the Ravens. It was a wild week in the AFC North, which is suddenly looking like the best division in the NFL. 

• The Browns used a fourth-quarter comeback to beat the Ravens 13-10, and thanks to the win, Cleveland is now in first place. This marks the first time in 12 YEARS that the Browns have been in first place after Week 6. 
• Pittsburgh also pulled out a wild comeback. The Steelers were down by 13 points against the Buccaneers before surging back to beat Tampa Bay in overtime. It was the Steelers’ largest fourth-quarter comeback since 2002. 
• As for the Ravens, their loss to the Browns marked the 15th time since 2020 that they’ve blown a fourth-quarter lead of seven points or more. Not only is that the most blown leads in the NFL in that span, but no other team even has 10. Yikes. 

How rough is the AFC North? The Bengals (3-2) were tied for second place going into their Week 6 bye, and after everything that happened on Sunday, they’re now in last place.
