This should be an easy question...
#1
But who would you rather see in the WC round?

1. Mac Jones and the hoodie, or
2. A fully rested Lamar Jackson, who the Bengals know very well.

I think one team is categorically worse than the other, especially if Lamar Jackson is involved. I also believe that, even if the Bengals are also categorically better than both teams, the Ravens present a unique difficulty when played in consecutive weeks. AFC North games are so often physical slugfests that avoiding one of those would be great. The Patriots might not be all that different stylistically though.

Well Jackson is too fast and I don't think the hoodie can block me, so.... #1

The most redundant scenario available...

Patriots, Steelers, and Dolphins all lose in week 18. Regardless of anything else that happens:

Bengals vs. Ravens twice in a row
Bills vs. Patriots twice in a row

The votes are kinda surprising. Lamar is DJ Reader's beyotch.

Patriots because that means Buffalo lost to them and so we would be the 2 seed.
It's easy to see the world in black and white. Grey? I don't know what to do with grey.

The Patriots are a notably worse team, who we have already beat this season, than a Lamar Jackson led Ravens. I expect Lamar to be back for the playoffs.

This legit hard to answer.

I think Lamar and the ravens only cause he might be rusty and a bit off his game.

I'm not a Lamar hater. I think he's awesome and really fun to watch play I just think coming off an injury might be better than having to face BB.

If they played their second Ravens game Week 15 or something, or if they could rest their starters for Week 18 because they didn't have this coin flip BS, I would probably actually vote Ravens.

Don't like having to win 2 straight games against the same team, though, so Patriots would be preferred. (Extra bonus benefit of I think the Patriots being in the playoffs means the Steelers aren't. Lol)

I went with the Patriots. I dislike playing the same team twice back to back. Brings back bad jets memories. I'm also wary of playing Lamar. Not sure what's up with his knee. Will he be 100 percent healthy now or will he still have issues with his knee. He wants to get paid so will he risk more injury this late in the year if his knee is still bothering him? I saw an article that said a source said there was a strong chance he plays in the playoffs but it mentioned that he's still dealing with swelling in his knee.

Yes I will be rooting for the Browns today as I do not want the Steelers to get into the playoffs. Even though I don't think there is any chance we play them unless we met in the AFC championship game.

I’d rather play the Patriots, but I think we will be fine either way. If Lamar does play, I doubt he’s fully healthy. The media has still noticed him with a limp as recently as this week. he hasn’t played in over a month and I expect rust and chemistry will be an issue. He is however more dynamic than anything the Patriots have, so the Patriots is the answer.

Toss up for me. They are very similar teams right now. Defense being their strength. Either way we should win so I don’t care. I’m more interested in bengals bills in round 2.

Absolutely hope the Browns beat the Steelers...

That's the X factor. Regular season Lamar and playoff Lamar are two different guys.

It also means the Steelers didn't make the playoffs

I picked the Patriots. The Ravens are a better team, and I don't like double dipping teams 2 weeks in a row. THe minus with the patriots is they have the hoodie, and if their players are clicking add to it the hoodie's coaching prowess, I can see us easily losing the game.

But if with all cylinders running on both teams, I think we beat the Patriots and should. Better overall.

I'd rather face the Patriots, but the is due to Baltimore's defense. I don't trust them to nit purposely injure Burrow.
