In other words, if there are 3 teams tied, one from the north and 2 from the west, you do the division tiebreakers for the west to leave only one team standing.
These scenarios are 2 and 3 separate division leaders.
It is the same procedure, they do not have a different rule for conference tiebreaker. http://www.nfl.com/standings/tiebreakingprocedures
This should still leave the Bengals in the one seed, if that is what your looking for. With 3 teams it first goes head to head, the Broncos beat the Patriots so they are eliminated from the tie break. Then, you go back to the two team head to head, Denver and Cincinnati have not played yet, and the next step is Division record in which Cincinnati is 4-0 and Denver is 3-1. Cincinnati should be the one seed if Pats lose.
