Bengals still have a path to the No. 2 seed. They wouldn’t be resting anyone regardless.

My life has improved noticeably since quitting Twitter. Highly recommended.

Yes. If KC loses (+ Buff loss + Cincy win) Bengals get a neutral field in an AFC championship game. So we want KC to lose too.

Lamar still out, Huntley still limited. Hubbard full go today. Bengals injury report clear. Nice to have a bonus bye i suppose. https://www.cincinnati.com/story/sports/nfl/bengals/2023/01/05/lamar-jackson-tyler-huntley-on-baltimore-injury-report-for-week-18-vs-cincinnati/69779950007/

Good.

We also want KC to lose. If they and the bills lose and the Bengals win, AFC championship is at a neutral site.

Per cbs the proposal needs 24 votes to pass and got 25. So Katie only came up 2 short. Wonder who her allies were?

Well, multiple reports say that Katie did not win the day and the proposal passed. On to Sunday…

The hopeful news so far on FA front is that I’ve been looking at “top 50 FAs” lists on the major sports sites, ands the only two Bengals making the lists are Bates and Vonn Bell. (And it’s clear the Bengals have already written Bates off.) So if that holds, prices for most of their guys should be reasonable. Or at least what passes for reasonable in FA.

While we wait for John Harbaugh’s team to come to town for their inevitable beat down, let’s check in on his brother Jim. What’s that, you say? Jim Harbaugh is a filthy cheater who is going to get Meatchicken hammered with major sanctions? Well, isn’t that a happy note for today. https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/35386658/jim-harbaugh-expects-stay-michigan-nfl-reports

One clarification this morning, which I was wondering about but didn’t have the energy to try and work through the tiebreakers on: Bengals can indeed get the second seed with a win plus a Buffalo loss. https://www.nfl.com/news/proposed-afc-playoff-contingencies-what-you-need-to-know

Yeah, that’s Katie’s point too. There are already rules in place, now isn’t the time to change them. We’ll see how it plays out.
