I’m getting way ahead of things but who cares.
As a 5 seed (we will remain there) I still think we could host the AFC Championship against the Bills.

I just pictured myself with a face Full of hot chilli, I used to watch the lads at work getting stuck into hot Indian curries faces bright red and sweat dribbling off em, looked more like an ordeal than enjoyable meal but they used to say it was lovely. Cincy is a smashing idea but I know my boss wouldn't be over keen as the work will no doubt be queing up for me when I go back in on the 4th. One to consider for the future though. Cheers.
Skyline chili is generic Midwest spaghetti, don’t worry you’re not missing anything. You can also get it in Cleveland since they have locations there but it wouldn’t be anywhere close to my list of places to visit for food in the city

OH Yes, .... and there is some great food in and around the city of Cleveland, OH. Don't worry about that at all, and I would NOT miss out of that Skyline chili .... not one bit.

Yorkie is like our secret good luck charm. We should totally all pitch in and buy him and me and my daughter tickets for the Bengals game next week, and maybe my girlfriend too but she’s a Bengals fan so probably not her. Waddya say fellas?
I’ll show him around Cincy and shove Skyline chili down his face, and we’ll virtually guarantee a win in the process! It’ll be great.

Shh, l’m trying to score tickets to the game here.
Cincinnati style chili isn’t overly spicy, but it is amazing! Don’t let anyone here tell you differently…

Oh yes ..... that close up camera shot of Moore going into the BROWNS locker room showed his face ..... he most definately had a " head injury " alright. It's a good thing the entire BROWNS team has 10 days off until the next "meaningless" pro football game.

I wouldn’t go out of my way for Skyline chili, it’s not even in my top 25 list of foods to try while in NEO.

If Joe Flacco eats that shit he’s going to tank the first round and never come back to Ohio again.

The more difficult question is: what if the Ratbirds loose to the Fins? Do you risk it and play your starters, with the potential reward of the opening round bye? For that reward, Rats needs to loose both.
Suppose part of the answer lies in the result Pit-Sea game. If Stoolers have something to play for in their last game, it could be worth the risk.
Good points KD! There's another important scenario to consider: Would you rather play AT KC in the 3rd seed or at the AFC South Winner in the 4th seed in round 1? If the Browns lose at Cincy and Buffalo wins out - the Browns could play AT KC instead of Jax or Indy. As good as we look at home - they got beat at Denver, LA and Seattle where the officials were more than happy to flag the Browns. KC has a post season home field advantage that has put them in 3 Super Bowls. Not only that, the last time we made the playoffs - KC ended us. You can't afford to start drives 1st and 15 there from the crowd noise induced false starts. As you can tell by the tantrum Mahomes threw when his WR lined up offsides by a couple feet - they're not used to getting flagged for the things the rest of the league does. That KC stuff is a package deal where you play against the team + the crowd noise + the officials consistently rewarding the home team with the benefit of every doubt unfolding. Remember the head to head collision where Hollywood Higgins fumble the ball into the end zone from 1 inch shy of the goal line? No penalty awarded and KC got the ball with the touchback. Browns lost a close game and that was point swing necessary to kick us out of the playoffs.
Of course, because I'm reminding you of all that - watch the winner of the AFC South finish with a better record than KC. As I said earlier in this thread, this team has a 9-10 day rest between yesterday and the game at Cincy. I think we should get starters some action and substitute as necessary.
The other scenario is seeing the Ratbirds inexplicably lose 2 games in a row; especially if that would turn them into a wildcard team that would have to play on the road. I think we have a better chance at seeing reindeer fly this time of year than watching the Rats lose 2 in a row. When it comes to making predictions though - I'm more Nostradumbass than Nostradamus.

Nope, regarding AFCS- Lawrence is out against the woeful Panthers, and they have won a couple games this season. Yeah the Chiefs are on the skids, but I don't see them losing to the Bengals Sunday... I did see that the Bengals would make the playoffs if they win out... Don't see that happening...
@flugel just entered scenarios in this nifty tool: https://www.espn.com/nfl/playoffs/machine
Even if Buffalo wins its remaining two and we lose at Cincy, we remain the 5th seed. We play either Jags, Colts or Texans, depending on their results.
If we win the last game, we need the Ratbirds to lose both to become the #1 seed. Unlikely, but far from impossible, because both the Fins (seeding/ hf advantage) and Steelers (making the playoffs at all) have everything to play for.
Based on risk-reward however, I would be inclined to agree with the bubble wrap suggestion made earlier.
If the Browns and Bills end up with the same record, the Browns get the nod because of better Conference record.
The more confusing scenario is if Miami loses twice, and we lose to the Bengals, both teams at 11-6... Somehow Cleveland would still get the #5 seed. That could well happen.
I’m getting way ahead of things but who cares.
As a 5 seed (we will remain there) I still think we could host the AFC
Championshipagainst the Bills.I think you could get 1,000:1 odds of that in Vegas. Said it elsewhere. I'll let you play with a playoff simulator, but It would involve the Bills falling to the #7 seed and knocking off the #2 and #1 seeds. Of course the Browns would have to beat the #4, and then #3 (or #6). Not impossible that the Browns and Bills could play one another in the second round though.
OH Yes, .... and there is some great food in and around the city of Cleveland, OH. Don't worry about that at all, and I would NOT miss out of that Skyline chili .... not one bit.
I agree with BB, dumping chili on top of a pile of spaghetti may be original, but I consider the stuff garbage. It's a local thing, just like Tony Packo's hot dogs are an item in Toledo. It took me years to figure out what the draw was there...

It’s the worst regional food in the USA and I’m ashamed it’s associated with Ohio instead of Kentucky.
If Joe Flacco eats that shit he’s going to tank the first round and never come back to Ohio again.

There is a Northern KY version of Cincy style chili, a small chain of maybe 3 restaurants called Dixie Chili. It’s quite good, sometimes l think l like it better than Skyline. You’d love it!
