The #Bengals will still have a path to the playoffs after this weekend, win-or-lose. 📈 This model shows how the Bengals could win the AFC North at 8-9. … And it’s not entirely crazy.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Dude you’re so good at these. You make it so simple and easy to understand. Well done.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Thanks brother! 🤝

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Excellent point. That is the likely scenario....but man, if they beat Buffalo, the Bengals really flip the script and Baltimore/ Pittsburgh lose their cushion.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Exactly 👌🏼

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork I’ll take option 1 Caleb and win out 😂

Of course! Just showing there *could* still be a little margin for error.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork The Bengals historically struggle against the ravens and the browns. They lose this week and next week they’re done

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork lol this is a funny ass fan fiction. Bmore losing 3 outta 5 isn’t happening even if they go 3-2 they still win the division

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork “I’m going to do it based on Vegas odds but ignore the odds that don’t agree with me”

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Yeah that’s the whole point. The Bengals, themselves, need to pull an upset or 2. But the *outside help* they need (even at 8-9) is all chalk - Therefore, pretty realistic.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Update ??????

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Update to the update ????

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Dear Lord, that’s not happening

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork i’ve seen this story before

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Ravens only need to lose twice if we beat them, since we would have the tie breaker

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Right. That’s if the Bengals win their last 5 games. This model accounts for one Bengals loss, proving there could still be a little margin for error. AFC North games will hold massive weight down the stretch because all 3 have just 1 divisional loss right now.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Awesome! I at least don’t have to be depressed if we lose tomorrow! #hope

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Thanks for the breakdown. I’m still hoping that our guys can run the table and sneak in without needing too much “help” from other teams. Who Dey!

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Please put the drugs away.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork You’re tweaking if you don’t think the Steelers and Ravens split

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Now imagine the scenario if the Bengals beat the Jets and Bears…it’s exhausting.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork I’m with you 100%. If they miss the playoffs, it’s nobody’s fault but their own.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork @JorFraud23 hana tani

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork So the bengals can only make the playoffs by winning the north? After how I saw them play against Baltimore & how the other teams in their division have looked I’m very confident in them winning the division. Only game that scares me for Cinci is Buffalo

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Wild card is still mathematically possible, but extraordinarily unlikely. Not even worth considering that outcome. Winning the division is the only realistic route.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork That’s what I figured

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork LMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAOOOOO

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Funny I didn’t realize Joe played defense cuz last I checked, all season long it was their defense losing them games until last week which was a fluke.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Please take into consideration that New England is coming out of the bye with buffalo for the afc east division, we win that I could see us dropping the Baltimore game.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork @BarstoolBigCat

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Just stop

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork It's possible but not gonna happen.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Cant wait for you to just lose tomorrow and next sunday. Then just do your mock drafts

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork The bengals will lose to one of Buffalo, Miami or Baltimore. Bookmark it. And enjoy getting your hopes up for the 3 weeks a year you get

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork My Model Says The Bengals Are Cooked by Tomorrow! Ravens Beat Pitt Bills Beat Bengals Baltimore 3 games up w 4 to Play! It’s Over!!

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork The dipshits who thought Kamala would win the election in a landslide had more common sense than this.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork You really think Steelers get swept by BAL? They almost always split. More likely they lose to CLE imo. Haven’t won @ CLE since 2021

I get what you’re saying, and that could happen. But… You think I’m crazy for projecting a Baltimore sweep. Others think I’m delusional for talking about 4 or 5 Bengals wins. Imagine me going on TV & saying — The Bengals will make the playoffs thanks to the Browns beating the Ravens.

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork No they won't. Bet

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork None of this is actually far fetched it’s really REASONABLE If not outright LIKELY, I doubt the Ravens beat the Patriots or Packers & we already beat them in their house. The Steelers could lose 4 of their next 5 as bad as they’ve looked. We just gotta do our part at this point🐅

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Well done as always

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Thanks brother! 🤝

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork @ThatsTwo3s

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork This is so wrong @CalebNoeTV. If the Bengals win out, they only need one other loss from Baltimore and two losses from the Steelers (as long as their 3 victories arent all in the division).

@WCPO @ESPNNFL @BengalsTalk @NFL @nflnetwork Grasping for straws , just pack for Cancun and relax
