1) If the Bengals win this weekend and the Bills lose, the Bengals are #2.
2) If the Bengals win/lose this weekend and the Bills win, the Bills are #2 and the Bengals are #3. But a playoff game between these two teams would be played in Cincinnati despite seeding.
That's about as fair a compromise as I can get. Trying to be objective here, the team most immediately screwed by the No Contest would be the Ravens. But like I said in another thread, if I were a Ravens fan I don't think I'd be griping about it given how the team has looked since their bye week.

Everything in this post is my fault.
