there have been a few years that BB has punted the last week when he had nothing to play for although the line of -5.5 @ Miami (Miami's annual superbowl) suggests otherwise

Just looking at this a little more, I think pretty much every team will try to get the highest seed possible. The lower seeded teams are just a lot better than past years now that they can upset a higher seeded team. If you get the 5 seed, you could possibly host a game rd 2 if everything breaks right in the AFC. No Brock Osweiller walking through that door in the AFC this year.
Kind of odd the Bengals are catching 3 points at Cleveland in Week 18? Maybe that line will change
As a Cincy fan, I wants Raiders/Chargers first round. Seems like the ceiling is the 3 seed. Can Raiders/Chargers get 6? I haven't looked much at how the tiebreakers work out for 10-7 wild card teams, aside from the Patriots would be the 5th seed if they don't win the AFC East
There's also a part of me that wants the 4 seed. Maximize chances of playing Tenny in the Divisional Round I like our chances there much better than at Arrowhead. Of course, just getting out of Wild Card round is a big accomplishment for the Bengals
I agree. I'd take the 4 seed over the 3 seed. I'd rather play the Titans round 2 than the Chiefs. Of course, ya gotta win the week before to get there..There's also a part of me that wants the 4 seed.

Eh, but like I said Brock Osweiller isn't walking through that door. These lower seeded teams are good and can win, if Raiders don't make the playoffs the biggest line will be like KC -6.5 over LAC. Indy will probably be around +3ish @ Cincy, NE 3.5ish @ Buff. Chaos can happen. Why not be better positioned to get a home game if one of these teams in the 2/3 spot gets knocked off?
