Bengals Win Out + Broncos & Colts go 2-3, Dolphins go 3-2 & WE'RE IN!!!

I could see a 9-8 team in the play-offs.  Any team in the play-offs is dangerous.  It is still possible for Bengals to finish with a winning record of 9-8, and it teams in Wild Card lose some games, stranger things have happened.  I'm old enough that I saw the 1970 Bengals start 1-6 on the season and make the play-offs. On the play-offs they lost to the Johnny Unitas Colts who won the Super Bowl.  So if a 1-6 team can get in, why not a 5-8 team that wins out and goes 9-8....The Defense would have to play much better, but who knows, maybe the Defense will play better down the stretch.
