The Cincinnati Bengals (5-8) absolutely have no business making the NFL layoffs.
But there are a lot of things they had no business doing but have done after Joe Burrow arrived.
Now, with just a 3% chance of qualifying for the postseason, they’ll need some help.
As Jack Savage breaks down in this short video, the Bengals will need the following to happen:
- Bengals win all four of their remaining games
- Denver Broncos lose three out of four
- Indianapolis Colts lose two out of four
- Miami Dolphins lose two out of four
The Broncos’ remaining games are home against the Colts, at the Los Angeles Chargers, at Cincinnati, and at home against the Kansas City Chiefs, who will likely be resting starters.
