* Pending outcome of tonight's game
If San Diego beats Denver tonight, the Bengals will end up with only three non-divisional games (out of ten) against teams that had winning records this season. Only two of next year's non-divisional opponents will have made the playoffs this season.
By contrast, according to CBS today, the Bengals had the toughest schedule in the NFL this season.
