Remember when making your choice, folks, that you're looking at the scenarios now in total, after all the the hypothetical dust had settled. But, that's not how it would unfold in reality.
Were scenario A to really occur, in that moment, it would mean many of us would be walking out of PBS following the first playoff win for this franchise in 25 years. Can you imagine how totally awesome that would feel? To finally get that friggin' monkey off our collective back? That place would go nuts. Everyone would be dancing back to their cars. It would be bedlam.
This effen board would melt down that night. Servers would crash from the traffic. Not to mention there'd be six successive days of basking in the glow of a win, and every homer on here (probably everyone choosing scenario B) would have us then running the table for a Lombardi Trophy (you know you would).
But, to get the #1 seed just to lose after two weeks of waiting and anticipation? Jebus, what a ***** kick in the teeth.
Yeah, this definately kills it. At least with A, you get a week of serious celebration. Heck, some Bengals fans would be seeing their first playoff win in their entire life.
Obviously a Super Bowl should be the goal, because the team has enough talent (if Dalton comes back) to win one.... that said, SB isn't one of the choices, so it's gotta be A.
(See, I know how to play along in a thought exercise.)
