Cincinnati gets the 3 with a win tonight. That would also knock the Jets out and put Houston in.

A Jets win puts them in and drops Cincinnati to the 4.

Cinic is interesting given that they play tonight and appear to be generous at +10. Do you think this gives them motivation to increase their seeding. If so...should it be a green light of a play. +10 is a lot of points for a good team with motivation.

^ They do have something to play for, although it's unclear what Marvin Smith's mindset is.

I definitely lean Bengals +10 tonight.


Jets are the #5 if they win.

Houston would be the #6 if the Jets lose or tie.

Cincy would host the Texans with a win. Texans beat them at Cincy once already this year.

Cincy would host the Jets with a loss. Jets are very marginal as a playoff team. Cincy should expose their weakness and exploit it next week, while keeping the starters as healthy as possible.

Still, I put a small ML bet on Cincy just because the odds are so darn juicy.

Interesting...No question I think Martin lewis would prefer take on the Jets again next week at home. However it is sacrficing a potential home field advantage at a later point down the playoff line. FCK , this is a tough call !
