Secondly we shake the "big-game" bug by going into Mile-High on prime time and securing a bye. Final week we beat a hated division foe while NE tanks and we ride the momentum of being the best team in the AFC into the playoffs.The same guy who beat the Pats and Brady yesterday, the guy who still needs to go into Buffalo and beat Rex Ryan who would consider it a super bowl win. Fitz is playing great, the Jets are playing great and neither the Jets or Steelers would be an easy win.
Of course both scenarios have us not winning the Superbowl and many people channel their inner Ricky Bobby's dad and consider this losing. I suppose those that picked scenario B consider being the best team in the regular season more successful that winning a wildcard playoff game against the likes of Ryan Fitzpatrick.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
