Bengals were 2.5 point favorites at home against Houston.

Guesses on this spread? I'm guessing the same in favor of Houston.

Well heres hoping for several things to come out of this playoff. 1, go to Texas and play like you belong there win or lose. 2, get better from this and pick up some pieces to make them better. 3, Mike Brown to build an indoor practice facility and improve his scouting department. The 3rd option probably isnt going to happen, and hoping the fans let him know about it next year and stay away until he makes changes.

The Bengals can win this game, Who Dey!

Should have 3 AFC North teams in the Final 4 of the AFC....but Bengals and Steelers both suck so who knows.

Wooooo.

Is the Yates injury serious? I'd say Houston will be a 3.5-4pt favorite, they didn't have Johnson the first time around.

If Delhomme is the starter, it should be a pick'em spread.

Tough call. Dalton has been decent this year but the Playoffs are a different animal especially on the road and for a rookie QB.
Toss-up game.

Texans and Broncos are the worst 3-4 seeds in AFC history

#1 Patriots, awful defense but do have Brady at home

#2 Ravens, good but beatable

#3 Texans....no Shaub.....down to their 3rd QB?

#4 Broncos....just awful awful

#5 Steelers....the only team Denver could beat, yet Ravens and Patriots are rooting for Broncos, bet ya a quarter.

#6 Bengals, competitive with everyone but haven't beaten anyone....but Texans are a good matchup.....could be going to NE for the biggest game in a long time.

I guess a Lions fan would know about being worst.

Looks like Yates will start.

Bengals will have the #17 pick in the draft along with their pick most likely in the low to mid 20s.

I'd guess Houston would be 2.5 point favorites this time around

So great to see this team in the playoffs. A win would be unreal, but its definitely within reach. Would be crazy to get a playoff win this year, but to have not gotten one with Carson and Chad.
