NOBODY would be afraid of that trash defense in the playoffs.

Gotta play defense to win Championships. Bungles cannot do that.

Agree. Defense is not near good enough to make any real noise in the playoffs.

If (Big IF) Cincy somehow finds their way into the 7 seed, then yeah I could see them maybe stealing a WC win against Bills or Ravens in another shootout game. But not nearly solid enough to go too far. It would have to be a pretty big transformation/improvement from the defense the rest of this year.

They still have a shot at maybe making it, as the mid teams just above them in the AFC aren't that good either.

Bolts
Donks
Colts

Cincy still gets to play the Bolts and Donks this year . Those are obviously must win games.
Colts upcoming schedule is brutal.

No margin for error and need some help.
Must win for Cincy next week vs the Bolts.
Must win for Cincy against the Donks (and hope the Chiefs beat the Donks 2x).
Must win AT LEAST 1 game vs the Squealers minimum.

Need some help by Colts falling off and the Chiefs taking care of business against the Bolts and Donks.

Still a shot, but it's a very very tough one.

It's kind of weird... We wouldn't have Uche, Hopkins or Hunt if we were healthy. That would be Ok but Veach has done a nice job.

4-6. The 4 wins the opposition has a record of 8-28

Reminds me of alot of those 8-8 Saints teams under Brees

4 of their 6 losses are to AFC opponents as well. That is a key tie breaker. Conference record. 6 of their remaining 7 games also against AFC teams. Not sure how that compares to other 6 and 7 seed contenders but pretty clear they are in trouble from a tie breaker perspective. I like the Jets chances more than Bengals to sneak in as 7 seed.

It won’t. But 10-7 might.

Obviously we don’t want to lose but I just wanted y’all’s take

I would say 4 as long as one of them is not against Buffalo and possibly the Texans.

Barring injury, would missing the playoffs cost Taylor his job?

It should.

But history of the franchise says that it won't.

I'd be shocked if it happened.

lol. No. Not even close. FO LOVES Zac and Marvin got 16 years while going 0-7 in the playoffs and only 9 games over .500 for his career there, which included 4 AFCN titles and 7 playoff seasons.
