What are our chances at a SB win?

He did so with so many injuries allowing defenses to stack the box against him.  Explain how a defense will cover the likes of AJ, Eifert, Kroft, Sanu, Jones, etc., when they have to load the box to stop Hill.  It will make Andy's life very easy, and most likely playing teams in Cincinnati or north of Cincinnati in the playoffs will play to our advantage because it will be cold in the playoffs here and I'll take Hill blow for blow over any back in the AFC.

Andy will just have to play catch with the receivers.

If we just stick to giving Hill the rock and stay healthy, then I'd give us pretty good odds.

If the Bengals are in position to win the division heading in to the last four games and they have a strong running game as the weather starts to turn, they will be very tough to deal with, absolutely.  And as I have previously stated about the defense's need for a rotation, I believe they need to spread it around through the first 12 games so Hill is hitting his stride in the postseason.
