Bengals get screwed, Buffalo wins the SB this year, mark it down.

For the Chargers to play in the AFC championship in Cincinnati they would have to beat Jacksonville and Kansas City while the Bengals beat the Ravens and then Buffalo at a neutral site unless Miami upsets them (if that happens I would walk around East St. Louis with a sign around my neck saying "Free sex."). 

For the NFC, there's also a fairly good chance the 49ers could make it even with a rookie quarterback since the Fleagles seem pretty banged up, Minnesota isn't all that, and the Cowboys are ... well, the Cowboys. 

Yeah, it sucks they have virtually no chance.  I was thinking if I was their coach I would try to catch Buffalo wiith the Chaos Hammer (thank you, Ted Lasso) and come out with two TE, and run the wildcat with direct snaps to their RB and have a FB and RB flank him. At the very least, it would reduce possessions and maybe Buffalo would be caught unable to stop it.  All they would need is 4 ypc.
