FRANK SCHWAB: This is Frank Schwab of Yahoo Sports, and I'm here to share with you my best future bets for the AFC North this upcoming season. And I'm going to start in Cleveland with their superstar running back. I really like Nick Chubb to lead the NFL in rushing yards this season. The Browns are going to lean on Nick Chubb heavily.
We all know the talent he has, and this seems like the season where he might finally lead league in carries and lead the league in yards. Even going to sprinkle a little bit on him to win Offensive Player of the Year at 30 to 1. I think Nick Chubb is in for a huge, huge season for the Browns this year.
Sticking with Offensive Player of the Year, I also do like Ja'Marr Chase, the Cincinnati Bengals' superstar receiver, at his odds to win Offensive Player of the Year, 12 to 1. Three the last four Offensive Player of the Year Awards have gone to receivers. We've seen players like Cooper Kupp, Justin Jefferson have monster seasons, put up great stats.
Ja'Marr Chase might be the number one overall fantasy pick in some of your leagues. It's because he can put up an absolutely huge season. Voters like to spread things around. So at 12 to 1, I really do like Ja'Marr Chase to win Offensive Player of the Year in this awesome Bengals offense.
One more best bet I like from the AFC North, the Pittsburgh Steelers over 8 and 1/2 wins. Look, Mike Tomlin just doesn't have losing seasons. You've heard that stat a million times. Somehow, the Steelers didn't have a losing season last year. They had a good offseason. Kenny Pickett should be better at quarterback.
I really do like this Steelers team to go over 8 and 1/2 wins. They just aren't a losing organization. I think they're better this year than they were last year. A lot of talent on there. Mike Tomlin, great coach. Give me the Steelers over 8 and 1/2 wins this season.
