That's being nice

1. 2252 yards  66.9 comp% 15 TD's 96.2 QB rating
2. 2242 yards 62.3 comp% 17 TD's 91.1 QB rating

Line 1 is Andy Dalton Line 2 is Lamar Jackson

In 4 of their last 5 games they've averaged 10.5 points

I know. They will likely go 1-1 over their next two games vs Pitt/ATL.

If the season ended today we would win the division and get the 3rd seed and face the Chargers at Cincy.

KC would host Miami and

The Titans would host the Ravens.

The Bills would get a bye.

The Chargers look more dangerous for us than KC, Miami, Titans and Ravens.

We can beat whomever we play. Though LAC is the scariest looking of any of the potential WC teams.

I don’t have much hope in getting the 1 seed, but still saying we can win out. If we do, I’m hoping the Jets, Patriots, or Ravens end up as the 7 seed.

I think the Chargers are the toughest of the bottom 4 teams.

Me too

I believe we've wrapped up the 5th seed (or better) now.

[QueenCity]

Not entirely excited about playing the Chargers... something about those damn West Coast teams sans Raiders. Getting the #2 seed you gotta play Miami lol.... honestly just a tough tough division.

Starting 0-2 really kicking us in the nuts... I'm mr.debby downer on Christmas.

IF they keep starting Pickett...they have no chance. He just throws 5 yard passes like every play. Any ball he throws over 10 yards has a chance to be intercepted.

Well, this didn't age well.

Yes, but he has a chance.
Much like Tim Tebow sucked, but had a chance to make playoffs and did AND win a playoff game, something Andy "Red Rifle" Dalton never accomplished.

Sucked kind of rooting for the stealers last night. Kind of like Satan tearing at my soul.

But hey, they pulled it out.

[BengalYankee]

Holy cow!!!
If the season ended today we would host the Ravens!
If we lose on Sunday and the Chargers beat the Broncos on Sunday we would face the Ravens again.
If we beat the Ravens on Sunday and the Bills beat the Patriots on Sunday we still face the Ravens again.

Yeah it's one of those weird scenarios where the results are so interdependent of each other than it's actually quite difficult to pull the Ravens and Bengals apart in the picture.

And yet, it's still fairly reasonable to happen. The Bills are far from a lock against a desperate Pats team. I do think the Chargers will beat the Broncos, but it's not like most Broncos games haven't been close.

I think we get the Ravens back to back at home though.
