Game Thread: Week 17 General Discussion

[Think McFly Think]

Who holds the tiebreaker between the Bengals/Dolphins? If the Bengals win today they obviously hold the tiebreaker over the Broncos but they’ll need the Broncos to lose to the Chiefs and they’ll need to beat the Steelers and I’m not sure what happens if the Fins beat the Browns and Jets, I didn’t see the graphic you talked about. I think the Colts may have a slight chance as well.

The Bengals need four things to happen to make the playoffs. They are as follows:

• The Bengals must win their final two games;
• The Denver Broncos must lose their final two games;
• The Indianapolis Colts must lose or tie one of their final two games;
• The Miami Dolphins must lose or tie one of their final two games

 

[Think McFly Think]

Colts got Jags and Giants, and Dolphins got Browns and Jets

Anyone agree with the dude at the desk saying that if Bengals make playoffs, Burrow should be MVP? Would make sense and Allen would have to wait again

Thanks. Yeah it’s a very long shot then that the Bengals make it. I see the Colts hold the tiebreaker over the Fins, but they need the Fins to win out in order to get in because of tiebreakers. In all likelihood the Broncos make it even if they lose today, I bet they beat the Chiefs in week 18 since I bet the Chiefs stars don’t play much if at all.

Nix is gonna eventually have to learn something other than dink and dunk

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

Broncos can only get a FG, lead 3-0

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

Denver's defense has really fallen off the last few weeks

I remember when Patriots fans were all over the sports forums.

I won't lie here. I don't miss them.

when I first arrived here, Seattle fans ran this place. Many here have football opinions galore when their team is good.

Dallas fans show up regardless.

Huge stop by the Broncos D there, I didn’t like the Bengals play calling there, running it up the middle twice just isn’t what the Bengals do, they should’ve had Burrow throw it on one of the plays if they were going to go for it.

Yeah very odd play call when they need this win.

Same kind of deal as the Pats fans, Seahawk fans were here in droves, but the fair weather 12s when back to whatever it is they do in Washington as opposed to talking smack.

Cincinnati Bengals, just as expected, no D anywhere to be found.

This I have noticed, props to you guys for that

 

[thedddd]

Bengals D actually made a stop. Really needed it after the awful 4 down play call on offense.

 

[Moab]

Pretty fast first quarter. So far it's a better game than the last 4 games I've watched.

 

[Think McFly Think]

Cincinnati Bengals, just as expected, no D anywhere to be found.

Until that stop, there may be something to your jinxing here…

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

How do you drop that, Chase?

 

[bksballer89]

Take the points man

 

[Xeliou66]

Burrow sacked by Cooper on 4th and goal! Wow, what a great goal line stand for the Broncos D! I think I would’ve taken the points there, at some point you need to get on the board

 

[Albuquerque Rams]

Denver's defense bends but doesn't break. Bengals come away with no points
