Tough to not pick the Bengals here. They are the better team, the healthier team, and the Denver win against the Pat's should have a real fire stoked inside them (to reach for the number one seed, or avoid the number three seed). Cleveland is just decimated by injury, especially in the secondary. Add to that they've struggled all year to stop the run...
On a side note to the younger fans: This Cleveland team is so much like our Bengals teams of the pre-Marvin era. Some decent talent in places, a lot of blown drafts, some knuckleheads, and above all, they find new and whacky ways to lose each week.
Watching them lose the way they do makes me so thankful for the current era of Bengals. It is a terrible thing to root for a team like that... Thankfully, they're a terrible team in the division. :)
