  A Bengals win, and we're in the playoffs... Game has been flexed to 4:15PM next Sunday
  
  Who Dey!

  Ill be there with the other 62 people in attendance. Last game I went to like this was in 2006 when the Bengals lost to the Steelers in overtime after Shayne Graham missed a 38 or 39 yard chip shot to win in regulation, so I should probably just stay home. Go Bengals though!

  Will be there as well. Lone home game I can go to this year. Better not disappoint (yeah right)

  I'm glad they moved it to 4:15

  Go Bengals!!

  What if......
  
  The Browns knock off the Steelers and the Patriots have already won???
  
  Could the Bengals benefit from a slight gimme?
• Ironman92

  

  Ok.... Browns/Steelers is also at 4:15
  
  Patriots play at 1:00

  No CLUE why the Browns/Steelers game got moved to 4PM as well... there is no interest in that game

  I have a feeling the blackout will either be lifted, or someone will step in to make sure it doesn't happen. However, at this point, the Cincy market won't watch it.

  It will be a close game. I say Ravens by 3 to 7.

  There is absolutely interest in that game. Not just from a Steelers-Browns fan perspective, but if you care about how the playoffs are shaping up....that game means something. A Ravens loss and a Steelers win gives Pittsburgh the division and a 1st round bye. Throw a New England loss in there and the Steelers would be the #1 seed in the AFC with home field advantage throughout the playoffs. Needless to say, they'll be some scoreboard watchin' in Cleveland and Cincy next Sunday.
  
  So the result of that Steelers-Browns game has big playoff implications pending the results of other games. With that said....go Bengals.

  If Cincy stops the run, they'll win. The Browns did pretty well in that category yesterday, and almost pulled off the upset. This in spite of a terrible decision by a QB at the end of the first half, and a HC's play call on a 4th and 5.

  Because if the Browns won and the Patriots won....the Ravens would have nothing to play for and Cincy could have a gift wrapped playoff berth....which would keep the Jets out for sure which takes away competitive balance and ticks off the hopeful teams....and one being a NY team upsetting the NFL.

  This game could be interesting. The Rats should be focused but they suck on the road and have lost to MUCH worse teams than the Bengals. I'd like to see the Bengals get in but not at the expense of allowing the Inbreds to win the division.

  There really is no good out of this game lol. +1 on the inbreds.

  Not confident we'll win, but we've already surpassed my expectations. I'm pleased with how the season turned out
• redstreak one

  

  The Bengals are head and shoulders above where I thought they would be, with that said Who Dey!
• bigdaddy2003

  

  I'm pretty pumped for this game.

  Bengals are doing buy 1 get one free for season ticket holders for this game?
  
  Wouldn't season ticket holders already have tickets?

  They have to buy another ticket and they get one free so they then would have 3 tickets and have to try and find 2 willing people to go to the game.
