Having said that I'll now proceed to overact, don't take it personally OP.
Who gives a crap about the other teams schedules at this point. The Bengals will either figure out how to start winning again or they wont. It really doesn't matter who everyone else plays. If they don't start winning games I honestly don't care who the Browns play or where they play. Smae with all the other teams in the division. It doesn't matter.
Think about it. Let's say the Raven are going to win the division hypothetically. Okay so you're implying the Bengal's will be competing against the rest of a log jammed division for a wildcard position?
What about all the other teams? Why not post their schedules and we can start doing a playoff calculator now? Chargers, Raiders, KC and Broncos all have 5 wins. Only 1 can win that division, that other 3 are in the same boat as the Steelers, Browns and Bengals. The Patriots have quietly worked their way into the conversation and the Colts aren't far away.
The point is the Bengals aren't competing with 2 other teams for a WC. It's 8 not including the division winners.
Maybe Im missing your point but Im pretty frustrated with this team right now. I didn't dream they be in this postion at this point of the season and if you'd told me they'd be in the thick of the playoff chase after 9 games I would have been happy. I think the high of where we were post Ravens win was such that the last 2 weeks have really knocked the wind out of a lot of us and it's hard to believe they can get back to where they were or even be competitive for that matter.
Maybe I'll come back around but ehh, I don't feel great about this team right now.
I posted the other teams schedules because their record directly affects us. And at least 1 wild card is coming from the division imo.
