We control our own destiny.

And the next 3 weeks we play three teams that have 5 wins right now (Raiders, Steelers, Chargers)

The surface temperature of the sun is only about 140 degrees. 

Who can even guess at this group of Jekyll and Hyde teams in this division. Its insane they way they are world beaters one week and complete whipping boys the next. Every team in this division has done it.

That must be metric temperature.

That would mean they only need to win 4 of their last 7...having home games against the Steelers, Chargers, Chiefs, 49ers and Ravens...with 2 road against the Broncos and Browns. 

I fully believe this team has the players, talent, skill, ability, and so on for 10 wins. And on both sides of the ball. 

The question is can these young players keep it together ? Can this coaching staff tap their ability and exploit the opposition's weakness ?

I believe if they're "on" they can play with anybody. The problem is they aren't "on" with any consistency. This team can make it interesting, or they can fold up. We'll see

so.. who's our next victim? Raiders?

They made the mediocre Chiefs of this year look like the dominating Chiefs of last. Hopefully they make Burrow look elite.

Cleveland
@Pittsburgh

Green Bay

LA Rams
Pittsburgh

The only Team on Pittsburgh remaining schedule with a losing record in Minnesota

Browns have 1 cupcake in the Lions

Bengals have the easiest remaining schedule.

The problem you are judging those later games now, some of those teams could have a losing record down the road, so other variables can impact like I juries covid .. one game at a time.

I look more at home and away games, and div.games this is where Bengals have an advantage. 
5 home to 3 away with 2 div games at home , 1 away
Browns 4-3 h/a with 2-2 h/ a in div
Ravens. 4-4 2-3 h/a in div
Steelers 3-5  2-2 h/a in div.

We have a clear advantage with our home schedule and division schedule.

Got to beat them steelers this week to create some cushion now. Especially with the Browns playing the Ravens in back to back games with their bye week sandwiched in between. 

Things could get shook up quickly in the next three weeks within the AFCN and could be a very pivotal stretch for the Bengals.

Liking that they're all 3 home games though

They actually did "blow the lead" when the Steelers tied it. BUT, they regained it.

Steelers o-line just gave the F up on that last series.
