It's going to be a difficult task especially without him.
Bengals have not been good in regular season primetime. They got blown out by freaking Cleveland on their last Monday night game and lost to Ravens on Sunday night. Bengals are tough in the playoffs,, but not in reg season primetime to this point. We'll see.
Also, if Bills win out and lock up the #1 seed, they will be hosting the AFCC Game at "Ford Field, Detroit". I'm calling it now. Weather in Buffalo this winter is just a tragedy. J/k. Kind-of.
Playoff seeding still isn't set with #5thru#7. Ravens are not guaranteed the #5 slot. They have a couple tough games left for them and are only 1 game ahead of the Chargers. If Balt drops both those games (Steelers, @Cincy), then they will seed below LAC and possibly even drop to #7 if Miami can win their last two.
If Ravens win the AFCN (puke), then Cincy should likely clinch the #5 and play at Jags/Titans. Obviously not rooting for that as a Bengals fan, but if they have to be a WC, then going to Jax I'll take it.

Welcome. Great analysis. Not sure Miami makes it into the playoffs. They are not very good without Tua (and frankly not as good against good teams with Tua). I don’t believe the early season Bengal are the same team that we see now. Hoping that works in our favor and they beat Buffalo. Regardless of all AFC teams, the one I want to see the least in the playoffs is Cincinnati. Need them to knock off Buffalo and then lose to anyone in the playoffs.
