When the lockout is over, it could be a mad dash for talent all over the NFL. With that in mind, we examine the most important things each team must accomplish with a division-by-division breakdown. This is a look at the AFC North.

Baltimore Ravens (http://www.nfl.com/teams/baltimoreravens/profile?team=BAL)

Improve the pass rush: The Ravens tied for 27th in the NFL in sacks (http://www.nfl.com/stats/categorystats?archive=false&conference=null&role=OPP&offensiveStatisticCategory=null&defensiveStatisticCategory=SACKS&season=2010&seasonType=REG&tabSeq=2&qualified=true&Submit=Go) with just 27 in 2010. They need another guy besides Terrell Suggs (http://www.nfl.com/players/terrellsuggs/profile?id=SUG467201) to come through. Maybe it's Sergio Kindle (http://www.nfl.com/players/sergiokindle/profile?id=KIN188762) coming off a head injury, but maybe the Ravens need to look outside the organization. They aren't the only team searching for the same type of player. I wonder if Jason Taylor (http://www.nfl.com/players/jasontaylor/profile?id=TAY338550) on a one-year deal would be a decent fit. He did have five sacks last year and 12 over the last two seasons. Ben Roethlisberger (http://www.nfl.com/players/benroethlisberger/profile?id=ROE750381) has beaten the Ravens five consecutive times, and even though they seem to get to him with a pass rush, he still has nine touchdown passes in those five games..............

What division dominance? Baltimore hasn't won a division title in five years, and the Bengals have won as many as they have.

They are just imagining life without the Steelers. Too bad they have to play in reality.

What Dominance? Oh you mean the STEELERS Dominance of 6 AFC North Titles since 2000? That Dominance?

Lets see, Since 2000,

Steelers 6
Bengals 2
Ravens 2

Yep, clearly...This must be a STEELERS Article if the word DOMINANCE is in the headline.
