This is what the Bengals still have to do to get into the NFL playoffs

The Cincinnati Bengals’ NFL playoff chances improved with their 19-17 Week 18 win Saturday night against the Steelers in Pittsburgh.

Heading into Week 18, one of the three things that still needed to happen for the Bengals to clinch the final spot in the AFC playoffs was a win against their AFC North rival.

It was the Bengals’ fifth straight win and they finished the regular season with a record of 9-8.

NFL.com estimates the Bengals’ playoff probability at 11 percent.

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow extended his NFL leads in passing yards and touchdown passes. Receiver Ja’Marr Chase is expected to win the first Triple Crown for the Bengals.

“We put ourselves in this position. There’s no one to blame but ourselves,” Burrow told ESPN’s Lisa Salters on the field after the game. “We will enjoy this win, go back, watch football tomorrow and hope for the best.”
