So, unless we beat Denver, it's almost a guaranteed Steelers at Bengals wild card game in week 18. Just three weeks after Dalton's injury.
It's the worst possible nightmare for Cincinnati.
So maybe, if we don't beat Denver, it would be better to do just poor enough let Shitsburg win the AFCN and us get the #5 seed. Shitsburg would be the #3 seed so they'd play the #6 Chiefs and we'd play the #4 Texans (or the Dolts). If we win that game, we'd need to go to Foxboro but we'd need to go there eventually anyway even if we get the #2 seed.
