I am a man of my word...

Not true.

If the Bengals win next week and lose against the Ravens....and

The Ravens and Miami both win out...

The Bengals miss the playoffs.

That's fine with me. If that happens then we don't deserve to be in. We had the path totally in our control.

Shutting down Megatron is a tall task...


well done Elam and Jimmy Smith!

Megatron (or should he be called Megadrop?) shut himself down......

It's not as if the Ravens played well. They didn't even score a TD. The refs and Stafford handed them that win.

Yep, I just looked at the playoff machine. If the Dolphins win out and both Cincy and Baltimore win next week, then week 17 is for everything. The Bengals win and they get the division and a first round bye, and Baltimore misses the playoffs. Lose the game and the Bengals are out, Baltimore gets the division, and the Patriots get the #2 seed (assuming of course the Pats beat the Bills week 17.

Then again, if the Pats lose out, the Ravens and Dolphins win out, and the Bengals go 1-1...then Miami gets the #2 seed, Baltimore gets #3, and the Bengals get #6.

I guess what I am saying is we all need to become Bills fans for the next couple weeks.

If that makes it easier for you to swallow use it...

New England picked a fine time to start playing like shit.

How can Miami jump us for #2 seed when we own the tie breaker against them and u if we win out?

I'm not sure what the tie breaker deal is, but if all of that happens, then I guess it comes down to the Jax @ Indy game for the #2 and #3 seed. If the Colts win, Miami would get the #2. If the Jags win, then the Ravens get the bye.

I went through and switched up every AFC game for week 17 except Jets/Dolphins, Bengals/Ravens, and Pats/Bills and the Colts game was the only one that had any affect.

I don't attempt to confuse myself with the potential matchups...I actually like Flacco playing on the road in the playoffs. He plays better on the road in the playoffs then anybody else.

Been on the road traveling...Back where I have time to chat.... Hated the loss but kind of expected that 1......HOWEVER we cant lose again...We do we stay home simple as that and Marv deserves to be fired if it happens.
