What a roller coaster of a season. Bengals are back in first place in the AFC North! WHO DEY!!!!! Please beat the Browns, Raiders!

Rooting for the Raiders? Seems like a safe move.

If the Browns win won't we still be in first place due to a better division record?

Yes.

Head to Head is the first tiebreaker.

Maybe you havent checked the calendar but there are 5 more games still. Not only that, but the ravens are only behind the bengals via the head to head..... with the second matchup looming

Interesting...I guess I assumed head to head went before division record.

I'm just going based on what people in the GD thread said after i asked the same question lol. I think it's different when there's a 3 way tie (?).

According to tiebreaking rules with 3 teams, I think it still takes head to head (?) first:

https://www.nfl.com/standings/tie-breaking-procedures

Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games among the clubs).
Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division.

Division record is first to break a wild card tiebreaker.

Regardless, we need CLE to lose but I doubt they will due to the delay they have to get everyone healthy.

First place and Zac is one win away from securing his first winning season as a head coach.

Ah! I missed that it is three way. I still think the Browns have it? I'd have to check the games played. 

Don't the Ravens have the H2H against Cleveland? How does that work in a 3 way tie when all 3 have some sort of H2H against the other?

If the Browns win tonight they would be 8-6 also with the head to head win.

So we would be in 2nd if the Browns win?

For now

Our offense is pretty bad currently. Defense bailed us out today

Can’t face the Broncos every week

I don't know the tiebreaker by heart, but at least I know it isn't Monday!

No we'll be in 1st. It'd be a 3 way tie and we hold the tiebreakers

Can’t really do that with more than two teams.
