The Bengals' path to the playoffs got clearer on Thursday night when the Chargers beat the Broncos.
If Cincinnati wins their final three games against the Browns, Broncos and Steelers, they have a 33% chance of making the postseason. They currently have a 9.6% chance, but that number will go up, assuming they handle their business and win their final three games.
What else needs to happen for the Bengals to get in?
The Broncos need to lose in Week 18 to the Chiefs, the Dolphins need to lose one of their final three games (49ers, @ Browns and @ Jets) and the Colts need to lose one of their final three games (Titans, @ Giants and Jaguars).
