Yes.

Because if Bengals lose out and the steelers win out, their record will be the same and it goes to tiebreakers in division then common games.

We would have to lose to Baltimore to give Pitt the division.
We practically won it, just not officially.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think they are getting it on the strength of schedule. They have the first place schedule, and no one can predict what the strength of victory will be for the final two games, but I can say that our net points are much more than theirs, so I would surmise that we have a greater strength of victory.

Eh. I wouldn't sleep on Baltimore just yet. A divisional game is a divisional game.

SOS and SOV, Pitt has a higher percentage. I've not looked at tie breakers to see which it is, but it wouldn't matter either way. Too much of a headache. Just win damn football games.

Freaking headaches...
1. Head to Head
2. Division
3. Common games
4. Conference
5. Strength of Victory
6. Strength of Schedule

The OL was terrible, both in pass protection and the run game. Thankfully our D showed up and gave the offense plenty of opportunities. If the OL corrects itself going into MNF, we're going to have a fun game on our hands.

Agreed BUT currently, as of "today"....who would you prefer to have in the playoffs as your QB?
No brainer for me. Brock.

1, 2, 3 and 4 would be ties, if the Bengals lose out and Pitt wins out. That would give the division to Pitt based on #5, SOV.
Just doing all this to stop all the speculation and confusion.

It will be their Super Bowl, and an opportunity (provided we'd lost eariler to Denver) to rob us of the division. Yeah, Harbaugh will have them up for that and we'll get their best shot. Whether that will be enough is debatable.

They will prepare this week.

Hmmm...good question. Before yesterday, I would have said Osweiler, no problem. But, after yesterday, I'm not so sure. I would probably still pick him as he has more NFL experience and has won multiple games for Denver and looked half decent, but man he did not look good in the second half yesterday.

Denver played AT CRAPSburgh, put up 27 points, and lost in the final seconds.
We got humiliated at home against DICKSburgh.
Let's keep it real - Osweiler > AJ big time. AJ looks like a back up. Osweiler does not.
Denver has not scored anything in 2nd half last three weeks.. AJ did what he needed to do .. no turnovers, 115 passing rating... Osweiler threw a crucial INT that setup Pittsburgh winning score. Oweiler is looking like a backup especially in 2nd halfs
RE: ***Wk 15 GameDay Thread...Bengals @ 49ers*** - Whacked - 12-22-2015
Man, fellas, I love the loyal-fan-spectacles you have on and I love my Bengals too but I have no idea other than 2-3 passes what makes you have ANY confidence in AJ. He looked like a borderline 3rd stringer (with the exception of about 2-3 passes).
We could beat Denver AT Denver with AD.......but even THAT would be a huge challenge.
AJ cant hold AD's jock strap.
This is not a cut on him as much as is a mere representation of AJ's severe lack of NFL experience.

Well since McCarron has injured his left hand, we might be down to Wenning next week.
