It really all boils down to this game. If they beat Denver, the Bengals will be the #2 seed EVEN IF THEY LOSE TO BALTIMORE (Read: get EVERYONE healthy).
Then, they would host (more than likely) the winner of KC and Denver in the first round.
If they lose to Denver, they will host pittsburg in almost every scenario.
I hope and pray that the Bengals coaches don't approach this as "just another game" and have a weak, conservative game plan. As Hue said earlier in the season, Pandora's box needs to be opened. You need to come up with the best gameplan ever to stop their offense without Atkins and get your offense going with McCarron.
I would spread Denver out with four receivers and a single back and attack them. Pass first to open the run, not the other way around.
The secondary is really going to have to step it up without the pass rush of Atkins. I would imagine they will play almost the entire game in nickel.
Everything rides on this game. Let's go guys.
