duus will hate this idea, but if the Bengals win (and they have 1 p.m. game vs. the Denver/Pitt 4 p.m. game) I think I actually have to pull for the Steelers vs. Denver. Baltimores sked is simply too cupcake. Had the Bengals gotten the win at Tampa or pulled it out versus Atlanta, it might be different, but even if we win both games against the Ravens, the division crown is an uphill climb.

Pitt, meanwhile, is dead in the water. No way they pull off enough wins to matter. So if the Bengals need a wild card slot, Denver is a bigger threat.

Good call ... at least the part about me hating it! You're probably right, but I simply have learned that I cannot root for the Steelers until the math tells me I can, and then I still am not sure I could do it. In the end, you are probably right ... but I don't have to like it!

Then you simply root for the Browncos to lose. It's, like, a law, or something that you never root for the Stealers to win, you just root for the other team to lose if it benefits the Bengals.

OUCH!!!! Hope there wasn't any green salad riding on these picks! That's a good way to lose a house!
