How do you think they will finish up? Beating Baltimore and Pittsburgh after the bye completely change the season IMO. I see them finishing 12-4 with remaining losses at Minnesota and at San Diego. Getting past that Baltimore Pittsburgh hump was huge as the rest of the season is all very winnable games thanks to a terrible season last year.

I didn't think last seasons record affected your schedule the next year? Maybe I am wrong on that. With that said, There isn't a game left that they can't win. Minnesota and San Diego will be tough outs, but IMO they shouldn't or won't overlook anyone, starting with Oakland!
I see a 12-4, with potential losses at Minnesota, San Diego and New York Jets. Who Dey!

12-4, but I think 11-5 would still win the division with the tiebreaker. They really need to go 12-4 to get the bye though. The San Diego game will be huge.

Pittsburgh can easily run the table,so Cincy has to win all but 1 as well.I could see Cincy going into the Oakland game flat since they had 2 impressive weeks the last 2 weeks.Denver was playing well and now the wheels seem to be falling off,Will Cincy be the next?
11-5 is my pick

I'm thinking the Bengals are going to go 12-4 or 13-3.

12-4...however, unless the wheels fall completely off (and I'm not yet sure they won't, being a lifelong Bengal fan) the Steelers are likely out of the hunt for the division championship, as the Bengals will likely win all tie-breakers, even if they collapse at 11-5. Some 10-6 team will probably get a wild card. After watching the Colts last night...the goal has to be to finish as highly seeded as possible to try to postpone dealing with that juggernaut.

I think the Bengals go 12-4. I think they will lose to Minnesota and then another game that they shouldn't. I don't think they will have a problem with San Diego unless the defense doesn't show up at all. Benson will run for about 130 that game. Pittsburgh will have to win out to win the division. Not knowing Polamalu's status and having Baltimore twice it will be extremely tough.

12-4 or 13-3. The only losses I see are potentially Minnesota and San Diego.

14.2, 13-3 the only quesiton game left is Minnesota, I think the Bengals can beat San Diego, either way they have a chance for a bye in week one of playoffs.

If the Bengals take care of the games they will be double digit favorites in, they WILL win the AFC North. Win the next 3, and they have at least a 2 game lead with 4 to play.
