CINCINNATI — Week 13 in the NFL has a few different games to keep an eye on for the Bengals playoff hopes. Cincinnati own a 13.1% chance of making the playoffs on ESPN's FPI which was helped by the Dolphins' loss to Green Bay on Thanksgiving.

Outside of that positive result, Cincinnati is hunting down three other teams. Check out those matchups below:

  • Patriots to beat Colts on Sunday
  • Falcons to beat the Chargers on Sunday
  • Browns to beat the Broncos on Monday

All three of those would be bettings, as the Bengals try to handle business as favorites against Pittsburgh.

Joe Burrow's crew will almost certainly make the playoffs at 10-7 but likely needs help from a few teams if they finish 9-8.
