It's an opinion expressed IMO with undue optimism when stated as "will probably make the playoffs if they win out".

 

 When in actuality you mean they might be able to squeak out winning their division if they win out and a lot of things break their way.

Per the NYT’s playoff simulator, the Bengals have a 76% chance of making the playoffs if we win our remaining 5 games. It’s unlikely we can make it as a wild card, seeing that multiple teams would need to implode weeks 13-18. Therefore, our best bet of making the playoffs is for us to win the AFC North

 

76% means probably and is not undue optimism.  It’s based on data.   It’s fine if you don’t believe it or want to actually understand the scenario.   Go to the simulators and you will see if you want, or just pontificate…whatever you want to do.  
 

My whole point is that you going to get a big effort from the bengals because they will feel they are still alive and the division is in play.
