5 years playoffs

[CrashDavisSports]

I actually think we have pretty dang good depth on our team versus most NFL teams. Some of our top end players are not the quality of other top end talent, but throughout our roster we are solid in depth with not much drop off at most positions.

compared to many other teams, yes.

just not good enough for superbowl.

every year eifert is hurt or some other major player is hurt.

this team is always full of excuses and asterisks

Well the Ravens just beat the Steelers and the Patriots just lost! Upsets this weekend!

 

[DanBengalfan]

If Jets win next week, then we won't play Steelers in round 1, they will be out of it.

If we lose to Denver, no bye week.

Jets have to beat the bills and they are in. If we lose to Denver, then we get either the jets Chiefs or Broncos

 

[Skinnyfats]

At least there is a chance now since Baltimore pulled off the upset along with the Jets. All I am saying.

Remember this morning when Pittsburgh and Seattle were the two most feared teams in the playoffs......

Maybe.

Even if the Bengals lose to Denver, they can get a bye. If Denver loses to the Chargers, and the Bengals beat the Ravens, then the Bengals would still get the #2 seed.

Bengals win, they lock in the #2, at worst, and have a potential for the #1 if NE loses to the Dolphins and the Bengals beat the Ravens.

Bengals lose, they can still get a bye as mentioned above, if Denver loses to SD.

This is what will happen:
Week 16 - Bengals beat Denver
Week 17
Bengals beat Baltimore
Pitt beats Cleveland.
Miami beats New England
Jets beat Buffalo
Chargers beat Broncos
Chiefs beat Raiders
1 Bengals
2 Pats
3 Chiefs
4 Texans
5 Jets
6 Steelers

Steelers beat the Chiefs in first round, and then come to Cincinnati and you can figure out the rest.

The Jets would have to lose, bro

 

[cincygrad]

Losing in the second round when you are the 1 seed is a particularly painful way to go out......

It might be likely.

At least they'll have made it past the 1st weekend, right?! Baby steps. 25 more years, and we'll get that playoff victory, baby!

 

[cincygrad]

If we did get a bye, I could definitely see the Chiefs coming into town and beating us..... It would be similar to SD two seasons ago. Beat them soundly during the regular season and then get hammered in the postseason. Of course, Andy Reid would be involved so I'm not sure there is much to fear, but anyway.....

No, I dont think so. KC gets the West and Denver is out. Unless I messed up the seedings

 

[Cincyfan78]

Nope you got it right.

If Denver loses out, they are out of the playoffs, and the Steelers would get in due to the head-to-head tie-breaker (Assuming Pitt beats Cleveland, of course).

Pitt needs to win and needs one of the following: Denver to lose out, or the Jets lose @Buf.

You're right. I didn't see Broncos losing both. Never gonna happen.

Steelers will get the 6th seed. Jets will lose to Bills. We'll be the 3. We'll lose to the 6 seed Steelers.
