Joe Burrow, the Cincinnati Bengals’ star quarterback, is set to play against the Pittsburgh Steelers despite recent concerns over a wrist and knee injury. Burrow’s participation in full practice sessions and the absence of a game status designation indicate his readiness for this match.

The upcoming game against the Steelers is critical, not only for the Bengals’ playoff aspirations but also for maintaining their momentum as the season progresses.

Bengals’ playoff hopes hinge on final game and key matchup

The Cincinnati Bengals have a slim chance of making the NFL playoffs this year. They currently stand at 8-8 and need to win their final game against the Pittsburgh Steelers to keep their hopes alive. However, their playoff fate also depends on the outcomes of other games. Specifically, they need the Kansas City Chiefs to beat the Denver Broncos and the New York Jets to defeat the Miami Dolphins.

If the Bengals win and both the Chiefs and Jets win their respective games, Cincinnati’s chances of making the playoffs increase significantly. Despite the odds being against them, this final push could be enough to secure a playoff spot, but they will need some help from other teams.
