Chance of winning the AFC North

Just a note: with Cleveland sitting at 0-4 in the division and already at 10 losses, we continue our streak of not finishing last in the division, going back to 1988.

 

Also, Sanders is a hell of a lot better than Gabriel. Of course, that's a low bar.

 

Maybe the Ravens suddenly figure some things out and go on a run. Jackson did look better than he has in a while yesterday. That said, the Bengals in Cincinnati is arguably the easiest game they have left on the schedule. That is the same Bengals team that kicked the Ravens asses in Baltimore on Thanksgiving night.

The Ravens just lost consecutive division games at home. It is difficult to have much confidence in them right now.

 

Its certainly a possibility. Though I hope it doesn't happen.

 

I'd say 6/10.

In part because BAL's schedule looks pretty tough.

We're all Bengal fans this week I think. [ETA: JPP is right that a tie is the best outcome for us]

 

I'm rooting for a tie.

I don't want Cincy getting to 8-9 because they'd win the tiebreaker. I'm not sold on the Steelers getting to 9-8, which is what it would take.

 

Good point!

Although it is Tomlin...so if I had to bet on a season end record, it would be 9-8.

 

100

 

We do have that magic. I know meaningless but I kind of want to break the tie with Cowgirls and have longest .500 or better record. I think we are tied 21-21 so if Mikey can get it done we'll have the record of 22 seasons.

 

This whole shebang rest on the mindset and health of Aaron Rodgers.

 

i agree. i don't believe mason would help us at all.

 

I agree, and I wanted them to vote that stuff out this year, but they didn't.
Don't forget the 11-5 Saints having to go to the 7-9 Seahawks, and losing.

 

Speaking of odds, Steelers are +8000 to win the SB. That's the 16th highest odds. KC is 15th at +4000 and they're all but eliminated, not leading their division.

Any of you "praying for a worthless playoff win" guys plan on laying any of their hard earned scratch down on these guys?

 

Funny, it's a worthless playoff win, but when I say teams like Baltimore, and Bills haven't done anything, someone will jump in ......well....well ....they won a playoff game since we have. IMO all playoff wins are worthless unless they actually take you to the SB, unless it's a rookie HC, or rookie Qb, and then it's good for experience.

 

Good we get to watch the Ravens lose in primetime

 

Winning a playoff game wouldn't be worthless, it would show that we're closer to where we want to be.

 

But winning a playoff game won't get Tomlin fired
