Chiefs game playoff implications - ochocincos - 12-29-2023 I am on NFL.com's playoff picture page. The Bengals are currently 9th in the seeding. If they win this weekend, they have a 55% chance to make the playoffs. If they lose, just a 8% chance to make it, needing a win against the Browns (who could rest starters next week now that they have clinched playoff spot) and other teams to lose. For all intents and purposes, this is a must-win for the Bengals. Also need the Colts, Texans, and/or Bills to lose.

We have to win out and hope the Seahawks beat the Steelers and the Colts beat the Texans.

Actually, this is a must win for both teams in many ways. Chiefs have been on like a 3-game skid and are coming off of a loss at home in December, which almost never happens. Even when the Chiefs were terrible, they still won home games in December. They're trying to end a losing streak and secure a better seed. They don't like us, are healthy, and I expect we will get their very best effort. We are barely sucking air. Pacheco and McKinnon are about to run all over this sieve of a defense, unfortunately. There is no question that this game is make or break for Cincy. RE: Chiefs game playoff implications - TheLeonardLeap - 12-29-2023 Cleveland clinching playoffs probably helps our odds because there might be a chance they rest some starters for the final week if the Ravens beat the Dolphins. I think they're locked into the 5th seed if the Ravens win?

Yes, and as I posted in another thread, we must root for the Ravens to beat the Phins and the Seahawks to beat the Steelers all this provided we beat the Chiefs. RE: Chiefs game playoff implications - Science Friction - 12-29-2023 Certainly, a win over the Chiefs helps our playoff chances immensely but it is not an absolute must(assuming we get a win over the Browns, of course). I'm a mathematician who did not stay in a Holiday Inn Express last night but I can still prove it(see my thread in a few minutes). :) RE: Chiefs game playoff implications - Bengalitis - 12-29-2023 its gonna be the Ravens Vs Niners for the Superbowl... the colors of the superbowl title has been the same as the teams that end up being in the superbowl.. you can say its a coincidence...but its too many coincidences... check it out yourself.

PURPLE & RED Maybe the power will go out again like the last Super Bowl where these two teams played against each other RE: Chiefs game playoff implications - cinci4life - 12-29-2023 (12-29-2023, 02:51 PM)coachmcneil71 Wrote: Actually, this is a must win for both teams in many ways.

McKinnon is on IR and Pacheco still has to pass concussion protocol which is still very questionable since he's yet to practice this wek. CEH as of yesterday was also questionable and did not practice because of an illness.

You mean that the Chiefs will likely be forced to rely on the passing game, versus one of the most maligned secondaries in the league?? I like our chances.

CEH as of yesterday was also questionable and did not practice because of an illness. Well, that's good news. Ts, I doubt it changes the outcome of the game. They could call up Knee Knocker Nelly from the mothball squad and run for a buck fifty against this defense.
