The next step
#3
(12-24-2015, 05:07 PM)EatonFan Wrote: This Denver game I think means more than any game in the last five years.  While we have secured a fifth straight playoff appearance, this game is the next step in the Bengals growth as a team -- securing a #1 or #2 seed and a bye.

Only six teams that were in the wildcard have won the super bowl (wildcard started in 1978)

Maybe you stated it wrong but there have been a lot of teams in the WC round that have won the SB...Maybe you meant WC teams (not division winners)..

Just since 1990, according to this graph... http://www.nfl.com/superbowlchamps/seeding...There have been 8 teams that were not the 1 or 2 seed (first round bye), thus being in the WC round.  It is true that only 6 WC teams have won the SB...The thing is that the Bengals, even with a loss at Denver, should win the division against Baltimore the following week.  We can also lose to Denver and Denver lose to SD in week 17 coupled with a victory over Baltimore and still get the bye.

All is not lost in Bengaldom and this is the NFL...Any given Sunday...WHODEY!!!
