Ok maybe that was a stretch but the Bengals definitely benefitted from a lot of calls tonight and that one was a huge game changer.

To beat Denver with AJ Green missing essentially the whole game, is big. There's no way they can beat Pittsburgh without him though.

I still say next week doesn't matter for either team.....

Did Cincy winning eliminate the Texans or the Chiefs?

Peyton's arm is most definitely a factor! No zip....Bengals defense was superb

If San Diego wins, they are in.

If Baltimore wins and San Diego loses, they are in. This is the only way Baltimore gets in.

If Baltimore and San Diego lose, you have at least a 3-way tie (possibly a 4-way tie if HOU wins)
If there's a 4-way tie between BAL, KC, SD and HOU...you eliminate San Diego as they were swept by KC.

There's then a 3-way tie between BAL, KC and HOU, conference record would apply. Baltimore is eliminated with a 5-7 AFC record. Houston and KC would win, but Houston is 7-4 and KC is 6-5, so the Texans would get the last spot.

The only way the Chiefs make it is if everyone loses and they finish tied with SD and BAL at 9-7, they own tiebreakers over both in a 3-team scenario.

Thanks

What if Pitt/Denver/Indy all at 11-5?

Is there any way Pitt falls to #4?

I'm not positive but in that scenario, Pittsburgh gets the 2, Denver the 3 and Indianapolis the 4. Indy can't get a bye because they lost H2H to both teams and can't finish with a overall better record (at least than Denver).

Probably a product of a few older guys that always make it but make it on past reputation

I agree with all 5 Steelers that made it....Timmons maybe borderline but he has a ton of tackles.

Glad to see the AFC get 4 QB's because I don't how you leave one of them off.

AFC only has 2 tackles, 1 guard and 2 centers???? WTH?

NFC has 5 tackles, 4 guards and 2 centers...

Leads the league in kick return AVG and is 3rd in punt return average. He's been solid as a DB too, which doesn't necessarily warrant a bid, but he probably should've made it on special teams.

Andrew Whitworth could also have an argument too. No other Bengals really deserved it. A pretty balanced team.

Had he not missed games early, he would've gotten in. He was outside the top 10 in receptions and yards. Career achievement guys like AJ Green and Megatron kept out some WR's that should've been in.
