Cincinnati Bengals (9-6) vs. Baltimore Ravens (11-4)

Found December 31, 2011 on Bengals Locker:
PLAYERS: Cedric Benson,  Bernard Scott,  Andy Dalton,  Terrell Suggs,  A.J. Green,  Jerome Simpson,  Jermaine Gresham,  Ray Rice,  Joe Flacco,  Torrey Smith
TEAMS: Cincinnati Bengals,  Baltimore Ravens

The Bengals control their own destiny tomorrow against the Ravens as they will win a wild card spot in the playoffs with a win.  The Bengals have won two games in a row.  The Ravens have won five of their last six games and they also have something to play for tomorrow.  If they win the game, they will win the AFC North and get the #2 seed and a bye in the first round of the playoffs.  If they lose and the Steelers beat the Browns in Cleveland, then the Ravens will be the #5 seed in the playoffs and they would play the winner of the AFC West.  The Ravens beat the Bengals 31-24 in Baltimore earlier this year.  Here is a look at the matchups in this game: When the Bengals have the ball:  The Bengals are likely going to come out running the ball with Cedric Benson and Bernard Scott.  They are going to have to work hard for every yard they get as the Ravens are only giving up 91.8 yards rushing per game and 3.5 yards per carry so far this year.  The O-Line is going to have to protect An...

Start Orton, bench Dalton in Week 17

What some are saying about 9-7 Bengals

Via Cincinnati Bengals Blog  |  January 02, 2012
• SI.com’s Don Banks: Snap Judgments Got to love that the Bengals, the team that I’m not even sure the city of Cincinnati truly appreciates, made the playoffs in what was supposed to be a take-your-lumps kind of year. A rookie quarterback in Andy Dalton isn’t supposed to take a team to the postseason, especially not when his best target is a rookie receiver...
