This would be the unlikely scenario of the Bengals losing to the Steelers, the Steelers beating the Browns, and the Bengals still making the playoffs.

Let's hope it doesn't come to that.
Again, that's not possible either. If all three finished 9-7, only the Steelers/Ravens would make it in.

It comes down to Strength of Victory, as outlined above. Both the Colts/Bengals would be 6-6 in Conference and 3-2 in Common Games.

I really hope we don't have to watch the Bengals get pimp slapped by the Stealers again with the playoffs on the line.

If it wasn't possible, then the Colts would have clinched a playoff spot already. They haven't. See 5TimeWS post, and you can also check out ESPN NFl Playoff Machine, and here for a summary of why Colts haven't clinched http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...clinch-sunday/

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

In fact, if all 3 teams in the North finished 9-7, the Steelers would win the Division I believe.

Bengals fans need to root for Oakland this weekend. One good thing about Baltimore winning this week, is it could jump the Bengals over the Colts Strength of Victory

True, but it probably won't matter anyway. The odds of KC beating the Colts, even at home, are not very good.

You would think, but this Colts team is incredibly unimpressive.

It's no gimme they win either of these games.

A big part of me knows they'll probably get crushed, but the kid in me is excited over the possibility of an improbable win.

Dalton is making some nice throws today. Still, the offense needs to get going.

Re: 2012-2013 Bengals Discussion

Both defenses playing well. We gotta cut out the mistakes and tackle a little better, but 10-0 not too bad.

Huge possession here because good teams find a way to score before the half.

Welp so much for that lol. 10-7
