Missing Dalton, not enough big plays from McCarron but hes done enough to get us in field goal range and make it 17-17 with 6 mins left. Misses FG earlier in the day might also be crucial.

Will the Bengals need to go to their third Quaterback after McCarron injured his wrist on the last play of the game.

Got the Ravens next week and divisional games (especially non-Cleveland afc north games) are always hard.

Can't say this has been a great NFL season with NFC east and AFC South quite weak at the moment.

Everything goes in cycles, there will always be weaker divs, NFC East and AFC South's turn currently.

Been a few significant injuries this year, especially QBs like Manning, Romo, Flacco, Luck, Dalton that have not help the season

Probably the most open playoffs for years but still would not like to play Seattle, they like the Port of the NFL, no one would like to play them in big games and you can never write them off even when they look beaten.

Will also be interesting after the playoffs with LA maybe getting 1 or 2 teams, what will happen to RG3, Manziel, and Colin Kaepernick

As a Geelong supporter I tend to disagree with your reference to Port in big games :P

Agree Wedgie, must be a very tongue in cheek comment. Nobody likes playing the Roos

Just the way it is. This year seems exacerbated because there happens to be numerous divisions with 2 teams that are good (inc Vikings, Jets and maybe Steelers) or better and few middle-of the road teams, and two of these are division winners (Texans, Redskins). Raiders, maybe Colts, maybe Rams. After this there are up to a dozen teams that have their moments but are ultimately fairly average, and then there's the usual 4-5 crap ones.

Reading NFL.com, last year and this year questioning whether a division winner automatically gets fourth spot and homefield or whether they all get ranked by wins and gave the example of Seattle (7-9) beating Saints (11-5) in Seattle a few years ago. I wouldn't like to see it solely by wins alone, but perhaps a division winner should need to at least have a winning record to secure that spot. Washington could host at 8-8, whilst either GB or Vikings who are both objectively a fair way ahead of Washington this year, will probably have to go to the other.

The one thing i haven't liked about American Sports is their playoff system. Imo if a wildcard team has a better record i believe they should be ranked higher than a divisional winner with lesser wins.

The NBA has now gone that way I believe.

Steelers win / Jets lose & we're in.
But if we miss out, we will more than likely still have a better record than the winner of the AFC South who's automatically in :roll:

Pittsburgh home but still relying on the Jets to lose. Jets will get the ball back 5 points down with 3.49 left.
