The only way the Bengals can get the #2 seed now is for the Bills to lose to the Pats and Bengals beat the Ravens. That would mean both teams are tied in common opponents (minimum of 4) at 8-3. It then goes to SOV where the Bengals currently have the advantage at .483 to Buffalo's .479. 

If Buffalo wins against the Pats, they are #2 and the Bengals play the Ravens on back to back weeks in Cincinnati. This, all assuming the Charges win at Denver.

What Rfaulk32 and I are assuming is, the NFL declares the Bills game as a "No Contest," so a 16-game divisor for only the Bengals and the Bills.  If they decide to play the Bills/ Bengals game, then yes it changes the math and the divisor would be 17 games for all teams.
