God, please, no more ties, for any reason or agenda. We've done our time in purgatory

Bengals can end up winning the division even with just one win (CLE) if the following happens:
Ravens lose to Rams and Steelers
Steelers lose to Chiefs and Browns
Browns lose to Bengals and Packers
Bengals would be tied 9-8 with Ravens, but they'd get in due to the division record tiebreaker.
No way of winning the division if the Bengals lose out.

All 4 teams in the playoffs and 2 ties in their last 3 games?
You had to work to get that one. I think SD makes it and I think Pitt is out. AFCN gets 2 in I think.

Apparently there's a few ways for us to take the division if we go 1-2, because I had us winning one game, losing to the Browns, and we still took the division.

Now here's the kicker: IF Pitt beats KC next week, then the KC-Cincy game becomes a battle for the #1 seed in the AFC
Wow, that would be awesome.

You're right.
The only other way to still win the division with 1-2 is to beat the Ravens.
Ravens would have to beat the Steelers and lose to the Rams, putting them in a tie with Bengals at 9-8.
Steelers would also have to go 1-2, beating the Browns but losing to Ravens and Chiefs, putting them at 8-8-1.
Browns would have to go 1-2, with their only win being against Bengals, putting them at 8-9.
So it's beat the Ravens and/or Browns to have any shot.

Appreciate the run down. Obviously this Ravens game may as well be a playoff game. Almost.

Not only is the AFC North crazy right now,but the AFC as a whole is up for grabs.This has just been a weird season.
RE: Playoff Generator - Joelist - 12-21-2021
The weirdest scenario out there becomes possible depending on this Sunday.....
IF
We beat the Rats, the Packers beat the Stains and the Chiefs beat the Stealers
THEN
We can clinch the AFCN with a victory over the Chiefs the following week.

Yeah I still haven’t figured out this internet thing.
Not worried about it because it’s just another fad that will be soon forgotten.

Too true. So many years the Bengals' season was effectively over with before we even bought the candy for Halloween.

Right on. We're exploring playoff scenarios instead of:
1) Posting to fire Zac Taylor
2) Discussing the dastardly ways of Mike Brown
3) Talking about who to take with our top 5 draft pick
4) Making jokes about how the top college team could beat the Bengals

I thought our playoff win was getting the first pick of the draft getting Burrow.. No wait..That was our superbowl victory..

Titans losing tomorrow helps us out around 5 percent. Our scenarios are so much better if colts overtake titans in division Colts crush us on tie breakers

It's really interesting to see how the losses of Derrick Henry and AJ Brown have affected the Titans.
Since Henry went on IR (Nov 1), the team hasn't scored more than 28 points in a game.
They've gone 3-3 in those games after being 6-2 with Henry.
Since AJ Brown also went down, the team hasn't scored more than 20 points in a game, going 1-2 since then.
Julio Jones only has 369 yards and no TDs in 8 games played. He definitely seems past his prime.
RE: Playoff Generator - Luvnit2 - 12-22-2021
ZT needs to treat as road game. Get on plane on Saturday, fly to Lexington and back, check into a hotel downtown and play like they have on the road all season. I have no idea why we turn the ball over and play worse at home.
Maybe it is the pressure of wanting to win to much for the fans.
