Denver Broncos (9-6) @ Cincinnati Bengals (7-8)
4:30 p.m. Saturday, NFL Network
The Ravens can clinch the AFC North by beating the Browns in Week 18, but a Bengals win over the Steelers in the regular season finale would also give Baltimore the division title. If the Bengals defeat the Broncos, Cincinnati would almost certainly still be alive in the AFC playoff race heading into its Week 18 game in Pittsburgh, which would give the Bengals more to play for.
While a win against Denver would keep the Bengals in contention, to make the playoffs Cincinnati would still need at least one loss each by Indianapolis and Miami and the Broncos to lose to Kansas City in Week 18. The Chiefs just wrapped up the AFC’s No. 1 seed, so they could rest their starters against Denver.
