The AFC North does not possess anything #1 on Special Teams, but they are more than adequate at all of the positions.
AFC North Starting Kicker: Matt Stover, Baltimore Ravens
NFL's fifth all-time leading scorer
Most consecutive PATs: 469
Most consecutive games with a field goal: 38
Most points scored by a player in his 30s: 1113
Oldest player to participate in a Super Bowl: 42 years, 11 days old
Oldest player to score in a Super Bowl: 42 years, 11 days old
Interesting fact: Stover currently holds the NCAA record for most punts in a single game at 16 against Louisiana-Monroe November 18, 1988.
AFC North Starting Punter, Sam Koch, Baltimore Ravens
He is currently #11th all-time in career yards per punt among punters throughout history with 44.8.
AFC North Starting Kick/Punt Returner: Josh Cribbs, Cleveland Browns
Cribbs, undrafted, actually still holds most of the Kent State Quarterback passing and rushing records. Immediately upon signing with the Browns, this electrifying stud launched himself into one of the greatest returners the game has ever seen. He currently holds the record for most kick returns for touchdowns over an entire career, with 8.
