I don't think the Steelers are as good as their 3-0 record, but I also don't think Bengals will sweep BAL and CLE.
So let's guess 4-2 against the division at best.

If the Bengals squeak in, I think it would be for the last WC spot and come down to tiebreakers.
I also don't trust that 9 wins gets into the playoffs, as 10-7 was the last WC last year, so the Bengals need to not only get wins against the teams they *should* beat but also get an extra win or two against a team who is currently holding a winning record (lookin at LAC or PIT primarily).

I can see that optimism trying to get out. Let it out, bro. The truth will set you free!
